First it was Target, and now Best Buy’s Black Friday ad has just leaked. While Target had just a couple of TV deals, Best Buy’s sale includes a number of HDTVs, including a few plasma models.

The deal for house brand Insignia’s NS-42P650A11 is about the best price I’ve seen for a 42-inch plasma (albeit 720p): $369.99, or $100 off the current price. But there a couple of coveted Panasonic plasmas as well, including the 46-inch 720p TC-P46C2 for just $499.99 and the 50-inch 1080p TC-P50U2 for $699.99, the latter a sweet $200 off the regular price.

If you’d rather go for an LCD TV, you can grab a 46-inch Sony Bravia KDL-46EX400 for $698.99 or pay a little extra for 120Hz refresh rates on the 46-inch Samsung LN46C600 for $797.99. There are also several Black Friday deals on LED-backlit sets, ranging from the Westinghouse 42-inch LD-4255VX for $649.99 (way down from its current $999.99 price) to the Samsung 46-inch UN46C6300, which includes a Blu-ray player for $999.98.
