iRobot Cyber Monday 2025 Sale – What’s Coming and When

November 15, 2025 BlackerFriday.com Leave a comment

Updated on Saturday, November 15, 2025: Each year, iRobot rolls out a handful of discounts across its top models, often matching or even beating its Black Friday offers. With 2025’s sale season approaching, here’s a look at when to expect it, how long it’ll run, what kind of discounts are likely, and examples from last year that show what could return.

Cyber Monday 2025 Sale Dates

Based on iRobot’s past patterns, the Cyber Monday 2025 sale is expected to start on Sunday, November 30, 2025 (that’s the day before Cyber Monday). It will likely run through Saturday, December 6, 2025.

That one-week window gives you time to compare prices. Just keep in mind that some models might sell out early. iRobot typically offers its Cyber Monday deals directly on iRobot.com and sometimes matches those discounts at major retailers like Amazon, Target, and Best Buy.

Typical Discounts

For 2025, you can expect up to $600 off select robot vacuums and bundles, similar to last year’s event. The markdowns will likely mirror Black Friday pricing, with percentage-based cuts ranging from 25% to 50% off, depending on the model and configuration.

Standard offers that usually appear during the Cyber Monday period include:

Free shipping and returns on all robots
90-day risk-free home trial
Financing options through Affirm for eligible buyers

Older models or entry-level units may get smaller discounts, while high-end or combo robots typically see the biggest drops.

Featured Deals from Last Year’s Sale

Looking at 2024’s event gives a good sense of what to expect again this year. These were some of iRobot’s main Cyber Monday prices from last season:

Roomba Combo j9+ robot vacuum and mop: $799.99 (regularly $1,399.99)
Roomba j9+ robot vacuum: $599.99 (regularly $899.99)
Other mid-range models such as the Roomba i7+ and s9+ were also discounted by several hundred dollars, depending on retailer.

Those discounts represented about 40–45% off the normal price, which has been consistent for iRobot’s bigger sale events. Bundles that pair a robot vacuum and mop or include self-emptying docks may also return, offering slightly better total value than buying separately.

IKEA Cyber Monday 2025 Sale – What’s Coming and When

November 15, 2025 BlackerFriday.com Leave a comment

Updated on Saturday, November 15, 2025: If you’re waiting for a special Cyber Monday event from IKEA this year, don’t hold your breath. The retailer rarely launches a separate Cyber Monday promotion. Instead, its Black Friday sale, which is often called the “Winter Sale,” usually continues right through Cyber Monday before winding down in the weeks that follow.

Black Friday/Cyber Monday 2025 Sale Dates

For 2025, IKEA’s main holiday sale is projected to begin on Wednesday, November 26, the day before Thanksgiving. Most major markdowns will remain available through Monday, December 1, with the larger Winter Sale running well into early January. That means shoppers can still grab deals after Cyber Monday, even if the biggest offers taper off once December begins.

Typical Discounted Offered

IKEA typically includes nearly every part of the home in its holiday promotions. Discounts in 2024 ranged between 25% and 60%, depending on the product category. Home décor, cookware, and lighting were some of the most deeply discounted areas, with several sofas and holiday collections priced at half off.

Here’s a look at the kinds of offers that appeared last year, many of which ran straight through Cyber Monday:

GAMMALBYN Sofa at 50% off
SYMFONISK Speaker Lamp at 30% off
SOLHETTA LED Bulbs at 60% off
Select cookware up to 50% off
VINTERFINT holiday décor at 40% off
Storage baskets and soft toys discounted by up to 40%

These promotions generally apply to current product lines rather than clearance-only merchandise.

Perks for IKEA Family Members

Anyone enrolled in the free IKEA Family loyalty program usually gets access to extra savings during the Winter Sale. Members often receive an additional 10% off select products and special dining deals in the IKEA restaurant, such as:

Weekday meal discounts
Free kids’ meals when adults purchase an entrée
Senior and breakfast specials

Signing up is quick, and the perks extend both online and in-store.

Shopping Online or In Person

Shoppers can expect nearly all Cyber Monday offers to be available on ikea.com as well as in physical stores. A few clearance and floor-model deals are typically reserved for in-store visitors. Free delivery on purchases above $299 is also common during this sale window, which makes upgrading furniture or buying larger pieces much more convenient.

Holiday Giving Initiatives

IKEA has a tradition of supporting charitable causes during its holiday sale season. In 2024, the company matched customer donations to Save the Children up to $50,000. It’s likely that a similar program will return this year as part of their seasonal efforts.

Hurley Cyber Monday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

November 15, 2025 BlackerFriday.com Leave a comment

Updated on Saturday, November 15, 2025: If you’re waiting for Hurley’s Cyber Monday deals this year, here’s what you can likely expect. Based on past sales, Hurley usually doesn’t launch a brand-new promotion for Cyber Monday. Instead, the ongoing Black Friday sale simply continues through the end of Cyber Monday before wrapping up shortly after. Still, it’s one of the best times of the year to pick up Hurley gear for less.

Black Friday/Cyber Monday 2025 Sale Schedule

Hurley’s holiday event typically begins several days before Thanksgiving. This year the sale is expected to start on Monday, November 24, 2025, directly on hurley.com. Once live, the discounts are anticipated to last until Wednesday, December 3, 2025, unless inventory sells out earlier.

If you’re hoping for the widest selection, shopping during the first few days is your best move. By Cyber Monday, popular sizes and styles may start disappearing..

Expected Discounts

Hurley has been consistent in offering discounts up to 50% off during its Black Friday and Cyber Monday period. Not every product reaches that level, but many do. Apparel and swimwear usually fall somewhere between 30% and 50% off, while select accessories and basics may go even lower depending on stock.

As in past years, certain exclusions will probably remain in place. Wetsuits rarely get included in sitewide sales, and gift cards or prior purchases are not discounted.

If you’re part of the Hurley Rewards Club, you can expect some added perks, such as double rewards points during the promotion. Since membership is free, joining can help you earn credits toward future purchases. Higher-tier members (Gold and Platinum) also get additional benefits like more flexible free shipping options.

Free Shipping Details

Free shipping eligibility depends on both your order size and your Hurley Rewards tier. Shoppers in the Gold or Platinum tiers typically qualify for free standard ground shipping on orders over $99, but only within the 48 contiguous United States.

Keep in mind that gear and wetsuits are usually excluded from free shipping, even if your total order qualifies. Customers in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, or other U.S. territories should also expect to pay for shipping.

Featured Deals from Last Year

Hurley’s 2024 event featured a wide mix of apparel, surfwear, and accessories at steep discounts. Here are some examples from last year’s sale that may give you an idea of what to expect this time around:

Phantom Naturals 20″ Boardshorts: $27.50 (50% off)
Men’s One and Only Pullover Hoodie: $42 (30% off)
Women’s Quick Dry Max One Piece: $59.50 (30% off)
Hybrid Walkshorts: $25 (50% off)
Kids’ Graphic Tees: $12 (40% off)

Not all categories saw identical markdowns, but the 30% to 50% range was consistent across most of the site.

Returns and Exchanges

Hurley generally offers 30 days from delivery for returns, but it’s worth double-checking the holiday fine print. Items labeled as “final sale” during big events usually can’t be returned or exchanged.

If you plan to exchange an item, be aware that shipping and restocking times can stretch out during the holiday rush. Sizes also sell out quickly, so verifying fit and measurements before you order can help avoid disappointment.
