A good Black Friday discount is 39 percent or higher, according to WalletHub

Black Friday shopping is often chaotic, but for anyone tired of store-hopping to find the best deal, a new report has dubbed the best places to shop for savings.

The report from personal finance website WalletHub surveyed 8,000 Black Friday store deals from 35 of the biggest U.S. retailers. WalletHub then identified the stores offering the biggest discounts in various categories, including appliances, jewelry and toys.

Macy's topped the list with the highest overall discount rate at 63.35 percent. 

Other department store giants Kohl's and Sears, took sixth and tenth place, respectively.
