GAP Black Friday 2024 Sale Predictions

Updated on Friday February 2, 2024: GAP is known for running a big site and storewide event on Black Friday and throughout the long holiday weekend. However, you have to be careful and not shop too early because you could miss out on some of the best deals. Here’s a look at what we’re expecting to see from them this year (our predictions are based off of the trends we’ve noticed throughout the years that we’ve been tracking their Black Friday sales).


Our Black Friday 2024 Sale Predictions

  • GAP often begins their “Black Friday” messaging a few days before Thanksgiving. Last year it was 60% off “Really Big Deals” and 40% off nearly everything else. But if you waited to shop on Thanksgiving day itself, you could have gotten a much better 50% to 60% off site and storewide (similar to what you’ll also see from their sister brand, Old Navy, over the long weekend). So we don’t recommend shopping any of the so called “Black Friday” specials before then.
  • In terms of the expiration date, GAP tends to portray a sense of urgency when advertising their promotions. That means you can expect to see a short sales window mentioned within the terms and conditions of their Black Friday sale (likely ending on Black Friday itself). However, when we look at what they usually run immediately afterwards, it’s only the handful of doorbuster deals that seem to vary but the site-wide 50% off deal continues past Cyber Monday.
  • You can also pick up free shipping on your total online purchase of $50 or more when you join their rewards program (it’s free to signup on their site).
  • All GAP stores, included those located within the 200+ malls and outlets nationwide operated by the Simon Property Group, are expected to be closed on Thanksgiving day itself.
  • GAP’s Black Friday sale is usually offered at Gap, GapBody, GapKids, and babyGap stores (and corresponding store websites) in the U.S. only. Gap Factory Outlets are always excluded from the offer.
  • No extra discounts are offered on gift card purchases and non-merchandise items (i.e. shipping & handling charges, taxes, etc.). No extra discounts offered on select items labeled as “doorbuster”.
  • Most importantly, should you shop this event or skip it? Generally, if you look at what people are posting on Reddit, consensus is that After Christmas and Labor Day sales often bring out the best clearance deals on clothing. But GAP’s Black Friday sale is often pretty good too so if you need to refresh your wardroom for the winter, it’s not a bad time to do so.

We’ll post a copy of GAP’s Black Friday 2024 ad the moment it becomes available. Be sure to either bookmark this page and check back regularly for updates or join our newsletter to stay informed as news happens.

Black Friday 2024 Start & End Dates

GAP’s Black Friday sales typically consist of a few very similar short events that begin a few days before Black Friday and end a few days after Cyber Monday. So even though you’ll see a lot of “ending today” type of messaging coming from them, on the most part, the discount levels are pretty much the same.

  • Expected Early BF sale: Monday November 25, 2024 through Wednesday November 27, 2024.
  • Expected BF start date: Thursday November 28, 2024 (that’s on Thanksgiving day). Just keep in mind the GAP store near you may be closed on Thanksgiving.
  • Expected BF end date: Tuesday December 3, 2024.

GAP’s Memorial Day 2024 Sale

Following just days after GAP’s Black Friday sale is their equally impressive Cyber Monday event. Of course we’re tracking it all here in 2024! But until we know more, you can scroll down the page to see last year’s ad and offer details to get a general idea of what they typically offer during the annual event.


Last Year’s Cyber Monday Ad

Updated on Thursday May 25, 2023: Memorial Day weekend is still a day away but, as you’ve probably noticed by now, most of the major sales are beginning to go live this week. Gap is also not making us wait until the holiday weekend to shop their sale… it’s now live this morning!

This year’s sale is nearly identical to last year’s sale where you can get 60% off select shorts, tanks, tees and dresses + 40% off and extra 10% off on top of that on nearly everything else in-stores and on their site. No promo code is needed as the savings are automatically applied to all qualifying items. Free shipping and free returns are also included on most purchases of $50 or more for Rewards Members.

The sale runs through May 30, 2023 at 11:59pm PT or while in-stock inventory lasts, for U.S. customers only. Offer may exclude select items such as daily deals or gift card purchases. Other limitations may apply so be sure to see the official terms posted in the ad scan below. Have a fun and safe Memorial Day weekend!

Before you go, be sure to compare this year’s sale to those we typically see on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
