While major retailers are providing deals for popular tablets this holiday season, most refrained from dropping their price points, and instead opted to attach gift cards to select devices. The new iPad mini, Microsoft Surface, and Google Nexus 7 are notably absent from Black Friday sales, likely disappointing eager consumers hungry for the latest tech. However, those looking to add a Kindle Fire HD or iPad 2 to their collection are in luck.

OFFICE MAX: Customers who purchase a Kindle Fire HD between 6 a.m. and noon on November 23 will receive a $25 gift card.

OFFICE DEPOT: The second-generation Amazon Kindle Fire will be available for $159.99, with a supplemental $25 Visa gift card included.

WALMART: The iPad 2 will sell for $399 alongside a $75 Wal-Mart gift card.

BEST BUY: At Best Buy, the Kindle Fire sells for $159.99, while the Fire HD costs $199.99. Both tablets come with a $30 Best Buy gift card.

Those who skew towards Apple will have access to a $40-60 price cut on the iPad 2 and fourth-generation iPads.

STAPLES: Customers who buy a $200 16GB Kindle Fire HD or a $250 32GB Fire HD will get a $20 Staples gift card with their purchase.

SHOPKO: The Kindle Fire will be available for $149.99, saving techies $30 in total, according to Android Authority.
