Black Friday deals on Thanksgiving: Best Buy, Walmart, and Target


UPDATE: Nov. 23, 2023, 4:30 p.m. EST This story has been updated with new tablet and air purifier deals.

Patient shoppers will find that Black Friday still remains one of the single biggest shopping days of the year for its ability to reliably trigger year-round lows on big-ticket items (like 4K TVs, Apple devices, robot vacuums, headphones, and video games). That includes discounts even better than Amazon’s massively-hyped fall Prime Day deals.

But most retailers have a generous definition of “Black Friday” nowadays: It’s more like a season than a 24-hour, post-Thanksgiving festivity. And many “early Black Friday deals” that start popping up in early November can be worth adding to your cart — if only to avoid availability headaches down the road.

Below, we’re keeping a running list of the best early Black Friday deals you can already shop at retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Dell, and Samsung. We’ll continue to update this story with newly added doorbusters as we slowly move closer to the holidays, so check back often.

Note: All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price. Deals with a strikeout were either sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Black Friday TV deals

Why we like it

Of the bunch of 85-inch Samsung TVs on sale this week, we think the deal on the Q80C is the best bang for your buck. An 85-inch Samsung QLED for less than $2,000 should speak for itself, but let’s quickly get into why this is such a steal: The Q80C is Samsung’s most advanced QLED (before meeting the Neo QLED side of the family), packing 96 precisely-lit local dimming zones for the meticulous brightness necessary for watching sports in the daylight. Also present are advanced gaming features like a 120Hz refresh rate and VRR support.

Black Friday Apple deals

Why we like it

Read Mashable’s full review of the Apple Watch Series 9.

Just under two short weeks ago, Walmart’s first Black Friday sales event brought the Series 9 down to its lowest-ever price at $349. We weren’t sure we’d see this price hit any lower — after all, $50 off the latest Apple Watch during Black Friday is the sale we’ve seen in years past. But if everyone running a Black Friday sale for the entire month is any indication, the ante has been upped this year. The Series 9 is now at a new low of $329, saving you $70 on the smartwatch that was released just this past fall. Along with the new S9 chip, the Series 9 comes with a brighter display than the previous generation, the same 18-hour battery life, and Double Tap. At the time of writing, you’ll find more colorways on sale at Walmart than Amazon.

Black Friday laptop deals

Why we like it

Featuring a 13th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage, this 16-inch convertible laptop hails from Lenovo’s incredibly popular Yoga series, which is known for versatile 2-in-1 models with sleek, premium designs and sturdy 360-degree hinges. It’s relatively rare to see a laptop with that much memory in the sub-$600 price range, and it’s even rarer to find a Yoga for less than $500: You can lock it in at just $499.99 if you’re a paid (Plus or Total) member of the My Best Buy program.

Black Friday monitor deals

Why we like it

Curved gaming monitors are all the rage these days, and for good reason — games just look better on them, point blank period. Samsung’s Odyssey line contains some of the best curved gaming monitors on the market, and a bunch of them are on sale for Black Friday, including this 32-inch model for $500(!) off the original price tag. It’ll still run you a grand, but that’s no discount to scoff at considering what you get, including 3840 x 2160 max resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate, one millisecond response times, FreeSync Premium Pro and G-SYNC compatibility, and an assortment of eye relief features to keep you in the game longer.

Black Friday tablet deals

Why we like it

No, iPads aren’t the only tablets out there, and yes there are actually great alternatives. The new Amazon Fire Max 11 is one such alternative, and doesn’t cost nearly as much as one of Apple’s flagship devices. Browse the web, stream your favorite shows, video chat with loved ones, and do pretty much anything else you’d assume you could do with a tablet for just $149.99 ($80 off the original price). You can even pair it with an Alexa smart speaker for some high-level “Amazon synergy.”
