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. If you would like to connect with me you can do so on my Linkedin page, on our site’s Facebook page, or write me an email. Thanks for checking us out and I look forward to hearing from you!
Updated on Friday, November, 7, 2025: If you are shopping for appliances or planning a home upgrade, AJ Madison’s Black Friday 2025 sale is now live. The retailer is offering major savings across kitchen, laundry, and home appliances, making this one of the best times of the year to buy.
Below is an updated overview of the sale timeline, current discounts, and the categories worth checking first.
Sale Dates and Duration
AJ Madison is known for running an extended Black Friday event. For 2025, the sale began on Monday, November 3 and will continue throughout the entire month of November at ajmadison.com.
Even though the savings last all month, popular items tend to sell out early, so shopping sooner rather than later is a good idea.
Current Discounts
AJ Madison’s Black Friday sale includes discounts up to 50% off select appliances. The sale covers nearly every major category, including kitchen appliances, washers and dryers, HVAC units, and smaller specialty items.
Here is what is available now:
1. Up to 50% Off Select Appliances
Some of the largest savings feature up to 50 percent off premium appliances. Not every model is discounted at this level, but there are strong deals on refrigerators, dishwashers, ranges, cooktops, and more.
2. Free Nationwide Shipping
Eligible purchases include free nationwide shipping, which can help you save significantly on large appliances such as full-size refrigerators, washers, and dryers.
3. 0% Financing Options
Qualified shoppers can take advantage of 0% financing for 12 months, making it easier to manage larger purchases while still benefiting from Black Friday savings.
What to Buy During AJ Madison’s 2025 Black Friday Sale
With the variety of discounts available, here are the categories offering the best opportunities to save:
1. Kitchen Appliances
This category often includes the most impressive markdowns. Expect deals on refrigerators, wall ovens, ranges, dishwashers, microwaves, and other kitchen essentials. If you are remodeling or replacing older units, this is one of the best times to invest.
2. Laundry Appliances
Washers, dryers, and bundled sets are also featured in the sale. Options range from budget-friendly models to high-efficiency and smart-enabled units.
3. Heating and Cooling
Black Friday deals extend to air conditioners, heat pumps, and HVAC systems. Because these products are higher priced, the savings can be especially meaningful.
4. Small and Specialty Appliances
The sale also covers smaller appliances such as microwaves, wine coolers, compact refrigerators, and undercounter appliances. These tend to sell quickly due to their lower price points.

Updated on Friday, November 7, 2025: With multiple sale phases, store-wide discounts, Kohl’s Cash, and plenty of category-spanning deals, there’s a lot coming at Kohl’s Black Friday 2025 sale. If you’re planning to shop it this year, here’s a breakdown of what’s coming, including confirmed 2025 sale dates, this year’s discounts, and a copy of the ad (all 20 pages are posted below!)
The Confirmed 2025 Sale Schedule
Kohl’s spreads out their Black Friday promotions into three main rounds over the course of November. Each round has its own pricing focus and timing, and understanding this can help you decide when to shop.
Round 1 (Confirmed): Early Access Black Friday (November 7–9, 2025)
This is their short 3-day event that kicks off the month’s savings. The early access sale is confirmed to run Friday, November 7 through Sunday, November 9, 2025, online at kohls.com and in stores.
The early access round offers a sneak peek at some of the major deals that will appear later in the main event. Not everything is on sale yet, but what is available tends to be a preview of upcoming doorbusters.
If you’re looking to earn Kohl’s Cash, November 7, 2025 is your best shot during this round. Kohl’s is once again offering $15 in Kohl’s Cash for every $50 spent. You’ll be able to redeem your eared credits November 8–20, 2025.
Round 2 (Confirmed): Main Black Friday Deals (November 23–28, 2025)
This round starts on Sunday, November 23, 2025, and continues up to Black Friday. This period includes a wider range of deals across categories, from home goods and electronics to toys and fashion.
These prices are designed to be competitive with what you’ll find at Target, Amazon, and Walmart. Some items will be restocked during this period if they sold out during Round 1, while new ones will be introduced.
Again, Kohl’s Cash will be active during this time, especially as the Thanksgiving weekend approaches. In recent years, the redemption window for Kohl’s Cash earned during this period started the day after Black Friday and ran for about 12 days.
These are Kohl’s most aggressive Black Friday deals and usually draw the most attention. These “doorbusters” go live online at kohls.com on Thanksgiving Day (November 27, 2025) at 12:01AM CT and in physical stores the next morning on Black Friday, November 28, 2025.
The doorbusters are marked with “Check Out Our Doorbusters” in the first few pages of the ad, making them easy to spot. These offers tend to have limited quantities and can sell out quickly both in-store and online. For that reason, shopping as early as possible on Thanksgiving Day online is usually the best strategy.
It’s also worth noting that Kohl’s has kept stores closed on Thanksgiving Day since 2020, and that policy continues here in 2025. Stores reopen for in-person shopping at 5:00AM local time on Black Friday.

Discount Levels and Kohl’s Cash
During the main Black Friday event, Kohl’s offers discounts in the range of 30% to 60% off, depending on the item. Electronics, kitchen appliances, home goods, and toys often see the steepest cuts.
In addition to the sale prices, Kohl’s is bringing back their $15 Kohl’s Cash for every $50 spent offer, which is stackable on most Black Friday deals. The store credit isn’t valid immediately but can typically be redeemed starting the Saturday after Black Friday. This year, Kohl’s Cash earned during the event will be redeemable from November 30 to December 10, 2025.
Unlike many retailers, Kohl’s allows you to stack various promos. You can use a percent-off promo code, earn Kohl’s Cash, and still get sale prices, something not all competitors allow.
Black Friday 2025 Ad Drop Date
Kohl’s typically releases its main Black Friday ad early compared to some other major retailers. This year it arrived on Friday, November 7, 2025 and it 20 pages long. It’s usually 40+ pages long, but this year’s it’s significantly shorter.
Cyber Monday Preview
Once the Black Friday dust settles, Kohl’s tends to return with a fresh wave of deals for Cyber Monday, which falls on December 1, 2025. The Cyber Monday deals are only live for 24 hours and are mostly online-only.
Cyber Monday includes many of the items from Black Friday, but there are usually a few new additions, especially in tech and home categories. Kohl’s Cash typically continues into this sale as well.
Possible Special In-Store Promotions
In 2024, Kohl’s added an extra incentive for those willing to shop in-person on Black Friday morning. The first 200 customers at each store had a chance to win prizes through a sweepstakes. Prizes included extra Kohl’s Cash and items from brands like Lego, Samsonite, Shark, JBL, and Calphalon. There was also a grand prize sweepstakes for a family vacation to Florida.
While Kohl’s hasn’t confirmed whether this will return in 2025, if they follow the same format, early store arrivals could get more than just discounts.
