Black Friday at Kohl's may look a lot like the same deals you'll get at other retailers -- discounts on Xbox and PS4 game console bundles and the like. But the big twist that Kohl's adds is tossing in a bundle of Kohl's Cash with your purchases. Long story short, if you're a frequent Kohl's shopper, the Kohl's ash may give these deals the nod over similar sales at Target and Walmart (though Target is also offering gift cards with some purchases).

Don't forget that if you're shopping at Kohl's, come prepared for the best savings. The Kohl's mobile app tracks discount codes and Kohl's Cash. And you get $10 in Kohl's Cash for every $50 that you spend online or in the store. Plus the Yes2You reward program gives a $5 for every 100 points you earn -- and you get a point for every dollar spent.

You won't have to wait until Black Friday to nab some of these deals, though. Aside from the sales that go into effect on Nov. 25 online, as well as in-store at 5 p.m., local time on Thanksgiving Day, there are deals available right now. Here's a roundup of what you can get now and what you can snag later on.

Kohl's deals available right now

You know the drill by now. It's no longer enough to have a giant sale that starts on Turkey Day. Now it has to start weeks in advance, tracing a path through the month of November all the way to Black Friday. That means there are some great deals at Kohl's you can get right this very minute, and we've highlighted them for you here.

In just a few years, Skynet will take control of all the drones to subjugate humans, so you should enjoy them while you still can. DJI is the uncontested leader in the drone world, and the DJI Spark is a great lightweight quadcopter that has advanced features like obstacle avoidance and gesture controls.

LG's 55-Inch 4K HDR Smart LED TV with AI ThinQ proves that there are going to be some amazing prices on TVs this season. CNET hasn't reviewed this model, but we looked around and it has gotten great reviews from users. In addition to featuring a 4K display and support for HDR, it also has both Alexa and Google Assistant built-in, so you can command it with the AI assistant of your choice.

Google's Home Max is aimed at folks who want a smart speaker, but would really like better audio quality at the same time. Think of it like a Sonos Play:5, but from Google. Of course, it builds in Google Assistant, so you can use it to control music, command smart home appliances and hear the news. Read our Google Home Max review.

Kohl's deals coming later this month

These are a few of the best deals we've spotted in Kohl's Black Friday ad that won't be available until Thanksgiving. Of course, we recommend that you check the ad yourself to determine which days these items will be available, if there are any special requirements, and whether they'll be available in the store, online or both.

'Tis the season for stepping up to a smartwatch with health and fitness features, and the Fitbit Versa Lite is in the sweet spot of offering a great array of features at a very affordable price -- especially compared to the Apple Watch, the other device that's doubling down on fitness features. Read our comparison of the Versa Lite and Inspire HR.

We're surrounded by great console deals for the holidays, and $200 is a familiar resting point for PS4 bundles. But this 1TB Slim console comes with Fortnite Neo Versa and thanks to the $60 in Kohl's Cash, this may well be one of the more attractive bundles out there right now. Read our PS4 Slim review.

Virtual reality might be a hot commodity this year, but a lot of packages -- like HTC's Vive and Oculus Rift -- are too expensive for casual gaming. Even some of the cheaper second-generation headsets that came out in 2019. But PlayStation VR has it all: a great price, lots of games and the right kind of games that you can jump into, play for a little while and pop out before it gets boring. And this deal makes the PlayStation VR all but irresistible. Read our PlayStation VR review.
