Technically, tomorrow is the big day, but there is no shortage of Black Friday sales. And this is especially interesting if you're shopping for a cheap laptop, giving you more bang for your buck than you would normally expect at this price.

For example, this 14.1-inch Gateway laptop sells for $399 at Walmart and offers a lot of power there, despite its small casing. Normally priced at $699, this sale saves $300.

While not a gaming powerhouse, Gateway makes a machine that is adequate for basic web browsing, watching YouTube, and getting work done. Powered by a 10th-generation Intel Core i5-1035G1 processor, this laptop has 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD to spare and should be snappy enough for daily use. A fingerprint reader is also built in for added peace of mind.

So how slim is "ultra slim"? It is quite compact. It is only 0.8 inches thick, 13.1 inches wide, and 8.9 inches tall. That means it won't weigh much in a backpack.

The laptop is also available in traditional black, but Gateway has a few more options for those who want to add some color to their lives. To be honest, the "rose gold" hue is a bit overdone in the photos, but I quite like the soothing green and electric blue color scheme.

Of course, there is no shortage of options when it comes to Black Friday laptop deals.
