Black Friday is still a few weeks away, but as has become tradition with holiday shopping, the leaking of advertisements has begun.

Retail ads featuring this year’s holiday deals are beginning to make their way onto websites that follow the trends and publicize the day-after-Thanksgiving deals.

Black Friday falls on Nov. 23 this year.

So far, three major retail chains have leaked flyers listing deals for the holiday season, according to BestBlackFriday.com. Ads for Costco, Kohl's and Target, featuring deals available at the end of the month and before, have already dropped.

Here’s a look at some of the deals each retailer is offering.

Costco

Costco, whose eight-page ad was posted by BestBlackFriday last week, features deals on Fitbits, Google Home Minis, laptops and a pressure cooker, among other bargains.

BestBlackFriday said that deals on page 1 of the ad are valid on Nov. 22, and they are available online only. Deals on pages 2-8 are valid Nov. 23 through Nov. 26.

Costco will be closed on Thanksgiving Day and will open at 9 a.m. on Black Friday. Here are some highlights from the eight-page ad:
