This Black Friday, it's all about the tech.

Thanksgiving is just days away, and if you haven’t started thawing your turkey and gathering your groceries yet, now is the time to do so.

Black Friday price cuts are expected to be deep this year – and we know just where to find them. For example, Grand Rapids-based Meijer will have the best discounts on apparel and accessories, personal finance website WalletHub reports. Apparel and accessories is also the retail segment in which the most deals will be found during this year’s Black Friday sales.

Since Black Friday is only a few days away we stopped by Meijer to check out all their amazing Black Friday deals for this year!

Brandon Pasch is giddy when speaking about "doorbuster" bargains he procured for this week's Black Friday sales at Meijer stores.

The holidays often make people feel a little more generous. To feel a need to go shopping for toys or clothes or gifts or food to benefit others in our community. To open their pocketbooks and write a check to a good cause. Or to participate in an event for a cause.

Picked-over shelves, full parking lots and long checkout lines: We've all been there.

This year, Meijer started celebrating Black Friday all week long.

With Thanksgiving next week and Christmas almost a month away, some local businesses are looking to hire additional staff members for the holiday season.

Turkey or television? Pumpkin pie or PlayStation? While Black Friday sales kick off online before the turkey defrosts, for legions of shoppers, the holiday shopping season starts in stores Thursday.
