If you want to find unique deals, you might want to take a look at a list compiled by WalletHub, a website for personal finance. They took a look at 8,000 deals in 30 big U.S. retailers and their report was released on Monday, titled the Black Friday Freshness Report.
The best deals from retailers start with an average discount of 68% from JCPenney, especially for accessories and apparel, but also on appliances, consumer electronics and toys. Kohl’s is up next with 67% discounts for the same categories. Stage Stores and Groupon offer discounts up to 64%, while Belk reaches 60% off for consumer packaged goods, toys, apparel and accessories, appliances and consumer electronics.
Their analysis was also based on comparing the rate of repetition of deals of the most popular retailers, but also the differences of prices between 2014 and 2015. It also seems that the average discount for the holidays in 2017 is 40% off.
WalletHub also proved the existence of many copied Black Friday deals at a rate of about 11%.

Other retailers that topped the list were: Costco with 16.3%, Best Buy with 14.6%, Ace Hardware with 15.5% and CVS Pharmacy with 13.3%.
