Shoppers trying to score a cheap, reliable mixer this Black Friday may be tempted to head to Target. A recently-leaked circular revealed that the store will be offering the Sunbeam Mixmaster Hand/Stand Mixer for only $25. Normally priced at $50, this seems like a great deal. The hitch? We found iffy reviews.

Attention, kitchen mixer fans. Kohl's is the place to be this Black Friday. A recent leaked circular has revealed the store will be significantly discounting three highly-rated KitchenAid stand mixers, offering them as doorbuster deals.

Tis the season for holiday baking -- and if you're in the mood for a little mixing there's no better pick than the KitchenAid Artisan Series Stand Mixer. This best-reviewed product consistently receives top marks in both professional and owner reviews. Users love its 10 convenient speeds, powerful performance and bright sunny colors -- so we were psyched to see it on a leaked circular for Sears 2009 Black Friday sale.

The store plans to sell the KitchenAid that day for $270. The hitch: A microscopically small caption states that this price can only be received via mail-in rebate. And even then, Sears is only shaving a measly 20 dollars off the mixer's regular price.
