While in general the tech deals are among the best and most sought after during the holiday shopping season, most shoppers tend to make a beeline straight for the tablets, computers, TVs and video games.

However, the well-rounded tech enthusiast knows that there are more items out there that are also being offered at severely discounted prices, and heads to those sales as well. These items, which include cell phones, cameras and GPS systems, are also a part of some really great sales opportunities this black Friday.

For the best sales on Phones, be sure to check out the following deals:

1. Radio Shack: 8 a.m. opening Nov. 29; The Samsung Galaxy S4 will be $49.99 with a 2-year activation. As a bonus, the store will also five any new activations a free $50 Online Visa. As an alternate option if you don't feel like waiting until Friday morning, when Target opens their doors at 8 p.m. on Thursday night, they will have the phone for $39.99, ten dollars cheaper than Radio Shack, but without the extra purchase incentive.

2. Best Buy: 10 a.m. sales event on Nov. 29; Though the company is opening the doors to its stores at 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving night, the special deal on the HTC One with 32 GB Mobile Phone won't be available until the following morning. It's worth a trip back though as the phone will only be $29.99 with a 2-year activation, a savings of $170.00

3. Walmart: 8 p.m. sales event on Nov. 28: Most of the phones Walmart is offering won't be available until their third sale event, but the Straight Talk Gakaxy Centura No Contract Phone is being offered for a good price of $29.00 at their second event. It has a total savings of $78.00

4. Walmart: 8 a.m. sales event on Nov. 29: The bulk of Walmart's mobile deals won't be available until Friday morning, but they are definitely worth the wait. The company will be selling the Moto X by Motorola for $49.00 and the Samsung Galaxy Mega for $79.00. Shoppers who purchase these phones will also receive a free $100.00 Walmart gift card with their purchase. The company is also offering a $75 gift card to anyone who purchases the iPhone 5C ($45.00), and the iPhone 5S ($189.00).

When it comes to buying a camera, generally, Canons and Nikons are among the best rated. With that in mind, the best deals in all levels of cameras in the Canon and Nikon families are as follows:

1. Nikon Coolpix L27 16-megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera at Wal-Mart's 8 p.m. event for $49.00: It would be hard to find a better deal on a digital camera, and while it is a Nikon, this camera is blissfully simple for the person who likes to take good pictures, but doesn't want an advanced machine to do it. The camera comes with 7 shooting modes for different situations, 5x zoom, and one-touch 720p HD movie recording.

2. Nikon Coolpix L320 16 megapixel camera featuring 26x zoom at Target for $99.00: This camera, which the retailer is offering for $130.00 off of its normal price allows those who want a camera that is slightly more advanced, but don't feel ready for the advanced technologies present in Digital SLR cameras.

3. Canon T3 DSLR Bundle including a 75-300mm lens, bag and 8 GB memory card for $449.00 at Wal-Mart's 8 p.m. event. This Digital SLR Bundle is an excellent value, especially because Wal-Mart is also offering a coupon for two 11x14 faux canvas prints.

4. Nikon D3200 DSLR Camera with NIKKOR AF-S DX 18-55mm at Best Buy for $499.99. In addition to the $300.00 discount being offered, the retailer is offering a free camera bag and 16GB memory card with purchase.

5. Nikon D7000 DSLR Camera with 18-140mm VR Bundle with additional 55-300mm VR Lens, 32 GB Memory Card, and camera Bag bundle at Best Buy for $1099.66. This camera is the multi-purpose camera of the advanced photog's dreams and makes an amazing gift. Though the price of the full bundle is still steep, it's still a savings of $1010.00 from the normal offer.

Finally, GPS Units are a perfect gift for anyone who needs a little extra help when it comes to directions. The best deals for these include:

1. Garmin Nuvi 50 GPS Unit at Wal-Mart for $69.00

2. Magellan Roadmate 5230T-LM 5" GPS with Lifetime Maps and traffic for $69.99 at Best Buy. The Unit is $80.00 cheaper than normal.
