This is a big deal. In the middle of Black Friday, Best Buy's website seems to have gone down, perhaps due to the immense traffic it's pulling in as people hunt for Black Friday deals on the tech they need.
This is leaving shoppers looking for deals without one of the most popular places to find them. But fear not, because while the Down Detector reports for Best Buy are hanging around 1,600, we've rounded up the best deals at Amazon, Walmart and other big retailers to help you find the deals you want.

The outage begins
We started seeing the Best Buy website loading slowly and not loading at all. From there, more than 1,600 people flocked to Downdetector to report issues with the massive retailer.
If you're having issues loading Best Buy's website, you're not alone.
A quick outage?
After jumping to around 1,800 reports on Downdetector, we saw a sudden drop to around 600, leading us to believe this might be a brief outage that resolves in short order.
And I can't say I'm surprised. Best Buy is losing innumerable amounts of money every minute the website isn't working, so it would stand to reason the company would put everyone it has on getting things back to normal.
