Where to score Black Friday doorbusters

eaten into Thanksgiving Day, but that doesn't mean you need to sacrifice the holiday to get in on the best deals.
Instead of standing on line outside of a big-box store on Thanksgiving eve or in the wee hours of Black Friday, you can watch football -- or spend time with family -- and nab many of the same doorbuster deals from the comfort of your couch.
Stores like Best Buy are offering up to 95% of their Black Friday ad items online for the same price, according to Brad Olson, founder of Gottadeal.com, a site that markets itself as one of many "official" Black Friday deal sites.
Shoppers who "like" Best Buy on Facebook can get a sneak peak at upcoming sales or exclusive offers and coupon codes like $5 off a $50 purchase or 15% off can even bring prices below those coveted doorbuster
Clamoring for Ultimate Optimus Prime? At Toys R Us the same deals and discounts, including 40% off the popular transformer figure, will also be available on Toysrus.com starting at 9 p.m. on Thanksgiving night. The toy giant is also offering free shipping on everything except furniture, video game consoles and gift cards.
At Sears, all of the same Sears Black Friday deals -- like 50% off Kenmore washer and dryers -- will be available online and in-store with free shipping until Dec. 19 on orders over $99.
Even though not all of Best Buy's doorbusters are online, the electronics retailer is offering a slew of online-only deals starting on Thursday Nov. 24 like discounts on Gateway's 15-inch laptop or Tritton headphones and there's free shipping on everything at BestBuy.com until Dec. 27.
Wal-Mart and Target have some of the longest Black Friday lines because the deepest discount are often only in stores. But don't overlook the online sales at these stores either, there are some extensive markdowns like 46-inch HDTVs for less than $400 on Walmart.com on Thanksgiving Day.
Wal-Mart is also offering free shipping on electronics and some other Walmart.com products when shoppers spend more than $45. At Target, shipping is free when you spend $50 -- those who use Target's REDcard save an additional 5% on orders, just be sure to pay the balance off right away or you'll have a hefty interest payment tacked on that purchase.
Macy's is sticking with in-store only deals on Black Friday, but some notable discounts, including 20% off dresses and 40% off coffeemakers and tea kettles are on the department store's site starting at midnight on Nov. 24. Plus, the shipping is free on all purchases over $99.
