It's no Black Friday, but you can still find plenty of sales and bargains on the upcoming long President's Day weekend. Stores and online retailers are already advertising lowered prices and free shipping for computers, TVs, and other electronics products; listed below are just a few of the deals we found.

Nearly all our tips for shopping on the aforementioned day after Thanksgiving apply here as well: try to do your deal-scouting in advance; make sure to comparison shop; scan the return policy carefully; and remember that there's always another sale coming along (in these rough retail days, that's a certainty).
