Hi! My name is Witold (pronounced "vee-told") and I am the founder of BlackerFriday.com. After many years working in corporate america, I decided it was time to take a break to pursue my real passion — helping people save money. Ever since I was a little boy selling pencils in the playground to my kindergarden friends, later collecting aluminum cans from all my neighbors in elementary school to support my baseball card addiction, eventually becoming an eBay Power Seller in my older years to support my college education, I had an eye for spotting deals. I’ve taken what I have learned over the years and built Blacker Friday to bring you the best Black Friday rumors, predictions, and news website. Fortunately I'm not alone in this - We have a great team of dedicated folks helping make this site possible.

The White Company Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect

Updated on Wednesday, November 12, 2025: The White Company’s annual Black Friday sale, aka “The White Event”, is just around the corner. Below is a look at when you can expect at the sale this year,  how much you might save, and a copy of last year’s ad so you have a solid idea of what could return this year.


Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

We expect the 2025 White Event to start on Friday, November 21, 2025 (that’s a week before Black Friday) and run through Cyber Monday, ending approximately Monday, December 1, 2025. That gives you a window of about 10–11 days to shop in-stores and at at thewhitecompany.com/us/.

In past years, The White Company has launched its Black Friday / White Weekend / Cyber Monday promotions over that same kind of span, sometimes starting just ahead of Black Friday and continuing through the weekend and into Monday. You’ll likely see promo emails, previews or early-access hints in early to mid November.


What to Expect: Discounts, Categories & Timing

Here’s what you can plan for, drawn from past sales:

  • Discount on full-price: Usually around 20% off full-priced items, via a promo code.
  • Sale / clearance items: Deeper markdowns show up during the event as stock needs to move. For things like bedding, towels, throws, older colors or less popular sizes, you can often get 40-60% off.
  • Categories likely included: Bedding & linens, robes & loungewear, home fragrance (candles, oils, diffusers), Christmas décor, gift sets, and luxury basics like duvet covers or pillows.

Sur La Table Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

Updated on Wednesday, November 12, 2025: Sur La Table is prepping up for Black Friday 2025, and if the last few years are any indication, the sale should follow a familiar pattern. Below, I’ll break down when the sale is expected to launch, which categories often get the steepest markdowns, what showed up in last year’s lineup, and what you’re likely to see again this year.


Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates & Timeline

Sur La Table typically launches its Black Friday promotions in stages. In 2025, the first wave is expected to start in early November with “Early Black Friday Deals.” These usually offer a preview of what’s to come, often featuring mid-range discounts across cookware, knives, and small appliances. It’s typically online only at surlatable.com.

The main sale is expected to begin on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 2025, and continue through Cyber Monday, December 1, 2025. During this five-day stretch, you can expect the steepest discounts and the broadest selection.


Expected Discount Levels

Based on last year, the deepest markdowns came in several tiers. Doorbusters reached up to 75% off, while general Black Friday discounts averaged closer to 50–65% off. Free shipping was offered on orders over $75, and there were also $15 savings on select in-store cooking classes.

High-end brands saw their own ranges of deals:

  • Le Creuset cookware went up to 45% off.
  • Staub and Zwilling products were marked down by as much as 70%.
  • Breville appliances were discounted up to $300.

These percentages are likely to repeat, as Sur La Table has kept discount levels relatively consistent from year to year.


Sale Highlights From Last Year

To give you an idea of what may return, here are a few highlights from 2024:

  • A Le Creuset Signature Sauteuse, originally $350, was marked down to $200.
  • A Staub 4.5-quart cocotte was reduced by more than half.
  • A Zwilling 8-piece knife block set dropped from $400 to $200.
  • Breville’s Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro saw discounts up to $300.
  • Doorbusters included select kitchen tools and gadgets priced under $20.

Straight Talk Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

Updated on Wednesday, November 12, 2025: Black Friday is always one of the biggest times of the year to find discounts on phones and wireless plans, and Straight Talk is no exception. Each year, you can expect deals both at when buying directly at Straight Talk and at Walmart, which is their largest retail partner. The sale often includes discounts on prepaid phones from major brands, free phones with plan purchases, and bundled perks like free activation. Here’s what we’re expecting to see this year.


Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

Straight Talk’s Black Friday 2025 sale is expected to officially begin on Black Friday itself, November 28, if you are shopping directly at straighttalk.com. However, you can usually find the deals earlier at Walmart, both online and in-store.

At Walmart, online deals at walmart.com are expected to start on Monday, November 24, 2025. That is three days before Thanksgiving. If you have a Walmart+ membership, you will likely get early access at 12 p.m. Eastern Time, while everyone else gains access at 5 p.m. Eastern Time the same day. This follows the same pattern Walmart has used in previous years.

If you plan on visiting a store in person, Walmart is likely to open its Black Friday event on Friday, November 28, 2025, at 6 a.m. local time. That means you can expect the Straight Talk phone deals to go live then as well.


How Long the Deals Last

Most of the Straight Talk discounts usually stay active throughout Walmart’s Black Friday week, but the best phones tend to sell out quickly. Some deals are limited in quantity, especially when a phone is free with a qualifying plan purchase. Based on past years, Straight Talk’s own website may keep its sale going through Cyber Monday, which falls on December 1 in 2025.


Types of Deals to Expect

Straight Talk’s Black Friday sales usually focus on prepaid smartphones. You can expect discounts up to around $110 off select devices, with several models offered free when you buy a qualifying plan. The free phone deals are among the most popular, since you only pay for the plan and get the device included at no extra cost.

The brands that usually appear in the sale include Apple, Samsung, Motorola, and TCL. While Apple phones typically see smaller discounts compared to Android devices, Straight Talk sometimes lowers the price of older iPhone models or bundles them with extra perks.

In addition to phones, you can expect Straight Talk to include free shipping and free activation with all orders, just as they did last year.


Featured Deals From Last Year

Looking back at Straight Talk’s Black Friday sale last year, here are some of the key deals that were available:

  • Samsung Galaxy A25 5G for $79.99 (Retail Price $179.99).
  • motorola g power 5G – 2024 for $39.99 (Retail Price $149.99).
  • Samsung Galaxy A15 5G for free with a qualifying plan purchase (Retail Price $129.99).
  • motorola edge – 2024 for free with a qualifying plan purchase (Retail Price $249.99).
