You mean they won't have any for sale? Damn..
It's been a while since the release id expect them to be stocked up.. Do you think other stores won't have it as well? Online orders and stuff

I do not know that. All I know now is they have few if any Stainless or Black Stainless 42mm.
Apple stores do not have but that could change quickly if Apple has a huge slug of inventory to release. Still taking 3-4 weeks to get one from Apple. They have lost a lot of sales.

The 42mm series 2 are the more difficult watches to come by.
The only "discount" I've seen is Kohl's offering $15 Kohl's Cash for every $50 spent, and they are going to start stocking the Apple Watch at certain stores and online. This would combine with their Yes2You rewards where you earn $5 for every $100 spent. So, a 38mm Apple Watch series 2 would net you $105 Kohl's Cash and $15 in the Yes2You rewards. The Kohl's cash must be used between 11/27 and 12/5 though. The deal runs 11/21-11/26. They also state no other deals or promotions apply to the Apple Watch; unless you had previous Kohl's cash or Yes2You rewards to spend on the watch.
This isn't really a discount unless you find a way to spend that Kohl's cash on stuff you need everyday or other gifts, but it is a decent deal.

Usually stores have a sale, but discounts for Apple products are very minimal. There is a wiki from 2015, so you can see what to possibly expect:

I don't know how they could offer Black Friday deals considering there are almost no watches available to purchase.
Target will have Series 1 38mm for $198 and 42mm for $228 on Black Friday. Best Buy has all Series 1 listed for $50 off in their BF ad. I haven't seen any discounts on Series 2 anywhere (not including the Kohl's cash offer), but as was said before, that's no surprise due to lagging availability.
