Thanksgiving is around the corner. Happy Thanksgiving to folks in the USA.

It is also the time for Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals.

While there are discount campaigns offered on a range of products, I am listing some that should be of interest for a Linux user and tech enthusiast.

Take a look and see if something interests you.

Do keep in mind that these **deals are for a limited time only**, and they have been duly mentioned.

**Most, if not all, services have a money-back policy**. It helps in getting your money back if you don't like the product or service. Please get those details before you decide to buy.

📋

Some of the links here are affiliate links, which means we may get a commission when you purchase at no additional cost to you. Please read our [affiliate policy](https://itsfoss.com/affiliate-policy/). Also, please make your own informed decicion on products to purchase.

Of course, buy what you need or what you want (if it's affordable). **Don't burn your pocket**. Furthermore, read the terms and conditions of the deals. Make an intelligent buying decision.

A few tips I suggest:

- Distinguish between 'I need' and 'I want'. See if it is okay to spend money comfortably on 'I want' category of products.
- Deals with 'money back guarantee' are usually safer if it's a new product. But read the fine prints on the refund policy, as not every product will offer 30 days money back period. Some go as less as 3 days.
- Try the purchased product and service quickly. No point in delaying and finding out that the service doesn't meet your requirement after the refund period (if any) is over.
- Almost all deals with will be for a short period of time. So, keep that in mind as well.

With that aside, let's see the Black Friday deals collection.
