Update: It's here -- and here's your direct link.
Who wants to wait until Friday? Blowout Cards simply isn't as we're doing the ol' Black Friday thing all week long -- and Black Friday Week begins in less than 12 hours from now.
It all starts on Monday at 7 a.m. Eastern with the biggest deals in the business on tap beginning at that time and lasting as long as they can. But you shouldn't shop and run early as each day will have new deals -- and reloads -- all day long and Buzz will have Buzz Box giveaways -- boxes of free stuff -- each day, too. (Look for details on those tomorrow morning about an hour after the sale madness begins.)
While you've seen Doorbuster deals with each wave of Black November right here all month long, there's even more to come.
Like what? Keep reading for a sneak peek at some of the new deals on the way ...

What's Buzzing Today: Some big pulls and a look back at an old thread in today's edition.
California's devastating wildfires have changed lives forever this week and the San Francisco 49ers are hoping to help people via an auction of several jerseys worn on the field just last night.
Fanatics Auctions and the 49ers are currently auctioning six game-used jerseys from their 27-23 loss to the Giants on Monday Night Football with 100 percent of the proceeds going to the North Valley Community Foundation based in Chico, Calif.
Did the Cleveland Browns arrive on Sunday?
That seems like a possibility as they knocked off the Atlanta Falcons 28-16 with a dominating day from rookie running back Nick Chubb who was one of the team's biggest stars on Sunday. His biggest highlight was a 92-yard touchdown run that set a new franchise record and was the second-longest TD run by a rookie in NFL history behind a 97-yarder from Pittsburgh's Bobby Gage back in 1949. He had 176 of the 211 rushing yards for the Browns and he also added three catches for 33 yards and a touchdown. This is the fourth straight week where he's had 18 or more carries and it's his second 100-yard game of his career.
When it comes to cardboard, Chubb's Rookie Cards are still probably overshadowed by fellow rookie Baker Mayfield, but continued performances like this one could give them a run for their money. Both have a heavy presence in this year's boxes with Chubb already appearing on more than 1,200 different cards -- and nearly 800 of those are certified ink. >>> See his autograph cards here

What's Buzzing Today: Nothing but highlights from breaks and big pulls in today's edition.
A simple idea, a colorful parallel rainbow, a focus on autographs and some star power with the challenge of a chase are all ingredients for a winner if you pull the right guy at the right time.
The card you see above? It's one of 75 2017 Panini Contenders Optic Red autographs signed by red-hot Kansas City Chiefs QB and potential league MVP Patrick Mahomes II -- a guy who was a promising rookie with little-to-no playing time at the time of this one's arrival.
Now? In a PSA 10 slab, it was a card that sold for $5,800 in late September. Another one like it? It's at $6,500 in an active auction. And, yes, there are rarer parallels that are even pricier -- and the lower-grade copies of these are strong sellers, too.
The crazy part? The boxes (and cases) that these cards come in can still be found without breaking the bank.

What's Buzzing Today: A couple of big-picture discussions about cards, MLB and NFL breaks and other interesting pulls.
One of the biggest highlights for the San Francisco 49ers this season can be found on cardboard.
That highlight? The NFL debut of QB Nick Mullens on Thursday Night Football last week as the former Southern Miss star has his first cards available for just the next couple of hours via Panini Instant, the company's real-time card platform.
Mullens arrived on Thursday with a 16-for-22, 262-yard showing against the hapless Oakland Raiders -- a game that included three touchdown passes for the un-drafted rookie and a 34-3 win when it was all said and done.
