Amazon to Blast Black Friday Deals Every 10 Minutes

Amazon plans to start its Black Friday push early this year, blasting deals every 10 minutes on its site starting on Sunday.

The company's Black Friday deals, which will run online and on its shopping app, are starting a day earlier than last year. The deals will include electronics, toys, books, movies and tools, among other categories.
