When is Black Friday?

With Thanksgiving falling on Thursday, Nov. 28 of this year, Black Friday follows on Friday, Nov. 29.

However, you don't need to wait that long for deals. "Early Black Friday" deals have already started to roll out, giving a jumpstart to the shopping season. While in-store deals may kick-off on Nov. 29, online sales will run all month long.

Do you need a Kindle to read Kindle books?

Yes and no. Unlike a standard e-book that can be read on any device, Kindle books can only be read on Kindle devices or the Kindle app. The Kindle app gives you flexibility so you don't need to spend a hundred dollars on an e-reader. Although we do have to say, Kindles are totally worth it.

The Kindle app is available on iOS and Android devices so you can read Kindle books on your exisiting smartphone, tablet, or laptop.
