Amazon is ringing in the holidays with early Black Friday deals on Le Creuset cookware, and prices start at $22. Right now, shoppers can save up to 44 percent on whistling tea kettles, cast iron pots, bread ovens, and serving dishes that double as storage containers. Items are already selling out, though, so act quick to score big.

From coffee machines to slow cookers, Amazon has discounted a wide variety of small kitchen appliances by up to 54 percent. Take advantage of the pre-Black Friday sale to update your air fryer and grab the electric griddle you’ve been eyeing all year. A freshly pressed panini at a majorly reduced price is just a click away.

When someone says "Black Friday," you may think of holiday shopping chaos. But how did the day get its name? Here's the true story.
