Zales Black Friday 2026: Sale Dates & Jewelry Deal Predictions

Updated on Wednesday, September 2, 2026: Zales has not announced its Black Friday 2026 sale yet, but last year’s event gives us a pretty good idea of what to expect.

Black Friday falls on Friday, November 27, 2026. We expect Zales to start its main sale about a week before Black Friday, with discounts continuing through Thanksgiving weekend and a separate Cyber Monday promotion following afterward.

Diamond jewelry, engagement rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and watches should all be part of the sale.

Expected Zales Black Friday 2026 Dates

Here’s our current prediction:

Event Expected 2026 Dates
Early Black Friday deals Early to mid-November
Main Black Friday sale begins November 19
Black Friday November 27
Black Friday sale ends Around November 29
Cyber Monday November 30

These dates have not been confirmed by Zales.

In 2025, Zales’ main Black Friday sale ran from November 20 through November 30, followed by Cyber Monday. The sale was available both at zales.com and in stores.

If Zales follows the same Thursday-before-Black-Friday schedule in 2026, November 19 is our best estimate for the start of the main event.

What Will the Zales Black Friday 2026 Sale Be?

Our best prediction is a sale very similar to 2025:

  • Up to 50% off select Black Friday specials
  • Up to 40% off a large selection of other qualifying jewelry
  • No promo code required on most advertised deals
  • Additional markdowns on select lab-grown diamond jewelry

Last year’s official Zales sale advertised up to 50% off Black Friday Specials and up to 40% off much of the rest of the qualifying assortment.

We expect the same general discount levels in 2026.

Zales Black Friday 2026 Price Predictions

Here are some actual 2025 deals along with what we think comparable jewelry could cost in 2026.

Item 2025 Black Friday Price Predicted 2026 Price
1 CT lab-grown diamond curved bar necklace $399.98 $349-$399
1 CT lab-grown diamond line necklace $1,099.98 $999-$1,099
1/2 CT lab-grown diamond band $499.98 $449-$499
Sapphire and diamond hoop earrings $299.98 $279-$299
5 CT lab-grown diamond tennis bracelet $1,999.98 $1,799-$1,999
1/2 CT lab-grown diamond stud earrings $249.98 $229-$249
1-1/2 CT lab-grown diamond engagement ring $1,399.98 $1,299-$1,399
1 CT diamond pendant and earring set $149.98 $149-$179

These 2026 prices are our predictions for comparable items, not announced Zales prices.

The actual 2025 sale included discounts of 45% to 50% on several of these pieces, while some featured jewelry reached discounts above 50%.

Lab-Grown Diamond Deals Should Be a Big Part of the Sale

Lab-grown diamonds were one of the biggest themes in Zales’ 2025 Black Friday sale.

Some examples included:

  • 1 CT lab-grown diamond necklace for $399.98, regularly $729
  • 1/2 CT lab-grown diamond band for $499.98, regularly $999
  • 1/2 CT lab-grown diamond stud earrings for $249.98, regularly $549
  • 1-1/2 CT lab-grown diamond engagement ring for $1,399.98, regularly $2,499.99
  • 5 CT lab-grown diamond tennis bracelet for $1,999.98, regularly $3,500

We expect lab-grown diamond rings, earrings and tennis bracelets to once again have some of the largest percentage discounts in 2026.

Zales Engagement Ring Deals

Black Friday can also be a good time to shop Zales engagement rings and bridal sets.

Last year, a 1-1/2 CT princess-cut lab-grown diamond engagement ring dropped to $1,399.98 from $2,499.99. A 2 CT oval lab-grown diamond bridal set was $2,499.98, down from $3,999.99.

For 2026, we expect select lab-grown diamond engagement rings to be around 35% to 50% off.

However, not every engagement ring will qualify. Solitaire rings, designer collections and custom jewelry have been excluded from past Black Friday promotions.

Earrings, Necklaces and Bracelet Deals

You don’t have to spend thousands of dollars to find a Zales Black Friday deal.

Last year’s sale included a 1/4 CT lab-grown diamond chain bracelet for $99.98 and a diamond pendant and earring set for $149.98. Select lab-grown diamond stud earrings were around $250.

For 2026, we think some of the more affordable Black Friday prices could look like:

  • Sterling silver jewelry around $50-$100
  • Small diamond bracelets around $100-$150
  • Diamond pendant and earring sets around $150-$200
  • Lab-grown diamond studs around $200-$300
  • Larger diamond necklaces and bracelets from $500 and up

The deepest discounts will likely be limited to specific featured styles.

What Will Probably Be Excluded?

Zales usually has a fairly long exclusions list.

In 2025, exclusions included certain solitaire rings, designer collections, select watches, charms, clearance merchandise, pre-owned jewelry, custom items, loose stones and protection plans. Black Friday discounts generally could not be combined with other coupons or promotions.

We expect similar exclusions in 2026.

Always check whether the exact piece you want is included rather than assuming the advertised “up to 40% off” applies to everything.

Is Vault Rewards Worth Joining Before Black Friday?

Yes. Vault Rewards is free to join.

Members currently earn 1 Gem for every $1 spent, and membership includes benefits such as member-only offers and early access to sales and new merchandise. Higher tiers can also receive free express shipping and additional benefits.

The current tiers are:

Tier Annual Gems Needed
Sapphire 0
Ruby 700
Emerald 2,000
Diamond 4,000

Because membership is free, it makes sense to sign up before Black Friday if you’re planning a purchase.

Zales Credit Card and Financing

Zales also offers special financing options through the Zales Credit Card.

Current financing plans are available on qualifying purchases, with minimum purchase requirements varying by plan. Cardholders may also receive special offers and additional Vault Rewards benefits.

That can be useful on a larger engagement ring or diamond purchase, but financing isn’t the same thing as a discount. Compare the actual Black Friday price first.

Zales Shipping and Returns

Zales’ current standard offer includes free shipping on qualifying purchases of $199 or more. Higher-tier Vault Rewards members may qualify for free express shipping.

Zales currently allows returns within 30 days of purchase or shipment. Jewelry exchanges are generally allowed within 60 days, while watch exchanges are limited to 30 days. Holiday policies can vary, so we’ll check the 2026 terms once the Black Friday sale begins.

Zales Cyber Monday 2026

Cyber Monday falls on Monday, November 30, 2026.

Zales usually rolls from Black Friday directly into Cyber Monday rather than completely changing its sale.

The 2025 Cyber Monday preview expected many of the same discounts, including up to 40% off a broad selection and deeper discounts of 50% or more on select featured jewelry.

For 2026, we expect Cyber Monday to offer similar savings, possibly with a few new online specials.

If a specific ring, necklace or pair of earrings is already 50% off during Black Friday, there probably isn’t much reason to wait.

When Will the Zales Black Friday 2026 Ad Come Out?

We expect early Black Friday deals to begin appearing sometime in the first half of November.

Zales had an Early Black Friday Specials section in 2025 with discounts already reaching 40% to more than 50% on selected jewelry before the main event.

The full Black Friday promotion should become clear around November 18-19 if last year’s schedule repeats.

We’ll update this page once Zales confirms the official 2026 dates, exclusions and featured deals.

Our Zales Black Friday 2026 Prediction

We expect Zales’ Black Friday 2026 sale to begin around November 19 and run through Thanksgiving weekend.

The most likely promotion is up to 40% off a large selection of qualifying jewelry, with select Black Friday specials reaching 50% off or more.

Lab-grown diamond jewelry should once again have some of the strongest prices. Based on last year, we could see diamond stud earrings around $250, 1 CT lab-grown diamond necklaces around $350 to $400 and larger engagement rings discounted by $1,000 or more.

For now, all 2026 dates and prices above are predictions. We’ll update them once Zales officially launches its Black Friday sale.

Zales Black Friday 2025 Ad and Deals

While we wait for the Zales Black Friday 2026 sale, you can browse last year’s three-page ad and featured deals below.

The 2025 sale gives us a good idea of the discounts, jewelry styles and prices that could return this year.

All deals below are from 2025 and have expired.

Zales’ Black Friday 2025 sale is now live! If you’re planning to shop this holiday season, it helps to know the timing, discount levels, exclusions, and types of jewelry included. Below, we break down everything you need to know based on the confirmed 2025 sale.

Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

Zales’ official Black Friday 2025 sale runs from Thursday, November 20 through Sunday, November 30, 2025, at 5:59 AM CST. A separate Cyber Monday sale will follow afterwards. The sale is available both in-store and online at zales.com.

How Big the Discounts Are

Zales is offering two main types of savings:

  • Up to 50% off Black Friday specials on select featured items.
  • Up to 40% off nearly everything else in-stock, no promo code required. Sale prices are reflected directly on qualifying items.

Most jewelry, including fashion pieces, engagement rings, watches, and more, will have the discounted price already applied. Some items may have had interim markdowns before the sale, so the price you see may reflect both prior and Black Friday discounts.

Comparing with Other Sales

One thing to keep in mind is that some of Zales’ Black Friday prices may not be dramatically different from what you’ll find during other big events, like Labor Day or Valentine’s Day sales. For certain items, the savings are bigger during Black Friday, but for others, the discounts are fairly similar.

If you’re shopping for a specific type of ring or necklace, it’s worth checking other jewelry stores too. Costco, for example, has competitive pricing on diamond jewelry. Comparing across retailers can help make sure you’re actually getting the best deal.

Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026: Sale Dates & Deal Predictions

Updated on Wednesday, September 2, 2026: Victoria’s Secret has not announced its Black Friday 2026 sale yet, but the last two years give us a pretty good idea of what to expect.

Black Friday falls on Friday, November 27, 2026. If Victoria’s Secret follows the same schedule as 2024 and 2025, the main sale should begin on the Tuesday before Black Friday and continue through the following Tuesday (a day after Cyber Monday).

We’re expecting another 40% off promotion, free gifts with qualifying purchases, free shipping and extra deals on bras, panties, pajamas, fragrances, body care and PINK merchandise.

Expected Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026 Dates

Here’s our current prediction:

Event Expected 2026 Dates
Black Friday sale begins November 24
Free tote and gift promotions November 24-29
Thanksgiving November 26
Black Friday November 27
Cyber Monday offers begin November 29-30
Cyber Monday November 30
Main sale ends December 1

These dates have not been confirmed by Victoria’s Secret.

In 2025, the main sale began Tuesday, November 25 and the 40% off promotion continued through December 2. In 2024, the 40% off sale started Tuesday, November 26 and ran through December 3.

Based on that pattern, November 24 through December 1 is our best estimate for 2026.

What Will the Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026 Sale Be?

Our best prediction is 40% off most qualifying full-price merchandise.

Victoria’s Secret offered 40% off in both 2024 and 2025, so there’s a good chance the same discount returns this year.

We expect the sale to include most:

  • Bras
  • Panties
  • Pajamas and sleepwear
  • Lingerie
  • PINK clothing
  • Fragrances
  • Body care
  • Beauty gift sets
  • Robes and slippers

Clearance merchandise, gift cards and select third-party brands or collaborations will probably be excluded.

Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026 Price Predictions

Here are some actual prices from last year along with what we think comparable 2026 deals could look like.

Item 2025 Black Friday Price Predicted 2026 Price
Select $40 bras $24 Around $24
Select $60 pajama sets $36 $35-$40
Select $80 lingerie $48 Around $48
Panties 7 for $35 7 for $35-$39
PINK push-up bras $25 $25-$30
PINK Wink bras $30 $25-$30
Select full-size beauty $8 $8-$10
Select body care $10 $8-$10
$20 beauty gift set $12 Around $12

These 2026 prices are predictions and have not been announced.

During Cyber Monday 2025, for example, a $60 flannel pajama set dropped to $36, a $40 push-up bra fell to $24 and an $80 lace teddy was $48. Victoria’s Secret also offered seven panties for $35.

Bra, Panty and Pajama Deals

Bras and panties should once again be some of the most popular Black Friday deals.

Last year’s 40% discount put many regularly priced $40 bras around $24. PINK also ran separate offers that included select push-up bras for $25 and Wink bras for $30.

The 7 for $35 panty promotion was another strong deal, working out to $5 per pair.

For 2026, we expect something very similar. If you’re shopping for several bras or pajamas at once, the 40% storewide offer will probably be one of the better times of the year to buy current styles.

The Semi-Annual Sale can have larger discounts, but those deals tend to focus more heavily on clearance merchandise and limited sizes.

Expect Another Free Tote and Blanket

The free gift has become one of the trademarks of Victoria’s Secret Black Friday.

In 2025, shoppers could get:

A free Shine Tote with a qualifying $100 purchase.

A free Shine Tote and blanket with a qualifying $150 purchase.

The spending requirement was calculated after discounts, and the gifts were available only while supplies lasted.

In 2024, the tote required an $85 purchase while the tote and blanket required $150.

For 2026, our prediction is:

Possible Gift Expected Purchase Requirement
Free tote $85-$100
Free tote and blanket Around $150

The design will almost certainly change.

If you really want the free gift, shop early. These offers can sell out before Black Friday weekend is over. Shoppers reported the 2025 gifts selling out online before the promotion officially ended.

Victoria’s Secret Beauty and Fragrance Deals

Beauty products usually get additional Black Friday specials beyond the 40% storewide discount.

In 2025, Victoria’s Secret offered select full-size beauty products for $8 online and body care for $10. PINK also had full-size beauty for $8 and minis at two for $8.

For 2026, we’d watch for:

  • Full-size body mists around $8-$10
  • Body lotions and creams around $8-$10
  • Beauty minis around $4-$5 each
  • Fragrance gift sets around 40% off
  • Select perfume discounts of 30%-40%

These smaller items can be good stocking stuffers, especially if the sale also includes free shipping.

Join VS & PINK Rewards Before Black Friday

VS & PINK Rewards is free to join, so it makes sense to have an account before the sale begins.

Victoria’s Secret currently has Member, Silver and Gold tiers. Silver status is reached at $300 in qualifying annual spending and Gold at $750. Rewards members can earn points and receive member offers, while Gold members currently receive free standard shipping on qualifying $25+ orders. Member and Silver tiers receive free shipping on qualifying $50+ orders.

You do not need a Victoria’s Secret credit card to join VS & PINK Rewards.

The rewards account may be especially useful on Cyber Monday, since Victoria’s Secret has offered extra member-only savings in the past.

Could Cyber Monday Be Better Than Black Friday?

Possibly.

Cyber Monday 2025 kept the 40% sitewide discount but added an extra 10% off qualifying purchases for members for part of the event. Because the extra discount was taken after the original 40% reduction, the combined savings worked out to roughly 46% off.

Victoria’s Secret also lowered its online free-shipping threshold during the Cyber Monday period.

For 2026, we think Cyber Monday could bring:

  • 40% off most qualifying merchandise
  • Possible extra 10% member discount
  • Free shipping with a lower purchase minimum
  • Special prices on pajamas, beauty or PINK apparel
  • A different free tote or gift

The downside to waiting is inventory. Popular pajama prints, bra sizes and free gifts may already be gone.

Is Black Friday Better Than the Semi-Annual Sale?

It depends on what you’re buying.

Black Friday is usually better for shoppers who want current merchandise because the 40% discount applies broadly across qualifying full-price products.

The Semi-Annual Sale can have deeper markdowns, but it’s mainly a clearance event. Sizes, colors and styles become much more limited. Your existing 2025 Black Friday page also notes this difference.

If you want a particular bra, pajama set, fragrance or holiday gift, Black Friday is probably the safer choice.

If you simply want the lowest possible price and don’t care about the exact color or style, the Semi-Annual Sale may eventually be cheaper.

Victoria’s Secret Black Friday Shipping

In 2025, Victoria’s Secret offered free standard shipping on Black Friday orders of $50 or more.

That also lines up with the current standard shipping benefit for many VS & PINK Rewards members. Victoria’s Secret currently lists standard shipping as free on qualifying orders of $50 or more.

We expect another free-shipping offer in 2026, possibly with an even lower minimum during Cyber Monday.

When Will the Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026 Ad Come Out?

Victoria’s Secret tends to wait until fairly close to Thanksgiving before revealing the complete promotion.

Last year, your BlackerFriday page was initially posted November 13 and updated with the confirmed sale once it went live on November 25.

For 2026, we expect the first Black Friday details around mid-November, followed by the full sale around November 24.

We’ll update this page once Victoria’s Secret confirms the discount, free gifts and official dates.

Our Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026 Prediction

We expect Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026 to begin around Tuesday, November 24 and continue through roughly December 1.

The most likely main offer is 40% off most qualifying merchandise.

We also expect seven panties for around $35, select beauty products around $8 to $10, bras starting around $24 to $30 and pajamas around 40% off.

A free tote with roughly an $85 to $100 purchase and a tote plus blanket with a $150 purchase are also likely based on the last two years.

For now, all 2026 dates, prices and promotions above are predictions. We’ll update them once Victoria’s Secret officially launches its Black Friday sale.

Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2025 Ad and Deals

While we wait for the Victoria’s Secret Black Friday 2026 sale, you can browse last year’s six-page ad and featured offers below.

The 2025 sale gives us a good idea of the discounts, free gifts and prices that could return this year.

All deals below are from 2025 and have expired.

Sam’s Club Black Friday 2026: Sale Dates & Deal Predictions

Updated on Wednesday, September 2, 2026: Sam’s Club has not announced its Black Friday 2026 sale yet, but last year’s schedule gives us a pretty good idea of what to expect.

Black Friday falls on Friday, November 27, 2026. We expect Sam’s Club to start its first Black Friday doorbusters in early November, followed by a longer countdown sale and the main event over Thanksgiving weekend.

TVs, electronics, gaming, toys, kitchen appliances, furniture, jewelry and holiday gifts should once again be among the biggest categories.

Expected Sam’s Club Black Friday 2026 Dates

Here’s our current prediction:

Event Expected 2026 Dates
Black Friday Doorbusters November 6-8
Countdown to Black Friday November 15-25
Main Black Friday Sale November 26-29
Black Friday November 27
Cyber Monday November 30

These dates have not been confirmed by Sam’s Club.

In 2025, Sam’s Club ran its first Black Friday Doorbusters November 7-9, followed by its Countdown to Black Friday sale November 16-26. The main event ran November 27-30, followed by a one-day Cyber Monday sale on December 1, exclusively at samsclub.com.

If Sam’s Club follows the same calendar pattern in 2026, the dates above are our best estimate.

What Deals Can We Expect?

Sam’s Club usually mixes straight price cuts with bundles, extended warranties and Sam’s Cash offers.

Here are some actual Black Friday 2025 prices along with what we think comparable products could cost in 2026.

Item 2025 Black Friday Price Predicted 2026 Price
VIZIO 40-inch 4K TV $128 $118-$138
VIZIO 50-inch 4K TV $198 $178-$198
LG 86-inch QNED 4K TV $896.99 $796-$897
GE Profile Opal Nugget Ice Maker $299.98 $279-$299
Ninja Crispi 5-in-1 Air Fryer $127.98 $119-$129
Member’s Mark Paradise Cove Dollhouse $119.98 $99-$119
14-foot trampoline $139.98 $129-$149
HOVERAir X1 Drone Bundle $249 $229-$249

These 2026 prices are our predictions and have not been announced by Sam’s Club.

The actual 2025 sale included the VIZIO 50-inch TV for $198, 40-inch model for $128, LG 86-inch QNED TV for $896.99, GE Profile Opal ice maker for $299.98 and Ninja Crispi for $127.98.

Sam’s Club Black Friday 2026 TV and Electronics Deals

TVs should once again be one of the best categories to watch.

Last year, Sam’s Club offered a 50-inch VIZIO Quantum 4K TV for $198 and a 40-inch model for $128. The sale also included an 86-inch LG QNED TV for $896.99. Some TV deals included a three-year manufacturer warranty as an extra member benefit.

For 2026, we think realistic target prices could be:

  • 40-inch to 43-inch TVs: $120-$150
  • 50-inch TVs: $175-$200
  • 65-inch TVs: $300-$450
  • 75-inch TVs: $450-$600
  • 85-inch to 86-inch TVs: $700-$900

Samsung, LG, VIZIO, TCL and Hisense should all be worth watching.

Sam’s Club bundles can also be important. A TV that costs the same as one at Walmart or Best Buy may include a longer warranty or another bonus.

Apple, Gaming and Tech Deals

Expect another large selection of laptops, tablets, headphones and gaming products.

During the first 2025 Doorbusters event, select Apple iPad Air M3 models started at $559 and came with $120 in Sam’s Cash. The main Black Friday preview also included $100 off the PlayStation 5 Slim Disc console.

Other featured tech included Bose, Sonos, Shokz, JBL and VIZIO products.

For 2026, we expect deals on:

  • Apple iPads and MacBooks
  • PlayStation 5 consoles and accessories
  • Nintendo products
  • Bose and Sony headphones
  • Laptops and monitors
  • Soundbars and speakers
  • Drones and smart home devices

Pay attention to Sam’s Cash when comparing prices. A laptop or tablet may appear to cost more than it does at another retailer but come with $50, $100 or more in Sam’s Cash.

Home, Kitchen and Toy Deals

Kitchen appliances and toys should also have plenty of discounts.

In 2025, the GE Profile Opal Nugget Ice Maker dropped from $399.98 to $299.98, while the Ninja Crispi 5-in-1 cooking system fell to $127.98.

The toy lineup included:

  • Member’s Mark Paradise Cove Dollhouse for $119.98
  • 14-foot trampoline for $139.98
  • Zuru X-Shot blaster set for $54.98
  • Jetson electric dirt bike for $299
  • LEGO Game Boy for $49.98
  • Hot Wheels Mega Hauler bundle for $39.98

For 2026, expect similar deals on Member’s Mark products, Ninja appliances, toys, ride-ons, furniture, mattresses and holiday gifts.

Plus Members Should Get Early Access Again

This is one of the biggest Sam’s Club Black Friday perks.

Sam’s Club currently gives Plus members up to 12 hours of early online access to select Doorbusters, Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals.

In 2025, Plus members received early access to the November Doorbusters and the main Black Friday event. Cyber Monday early access began at noon ET on November 30, 12 hours before the December 1 sale.

We expect that perk to return in 2026.

Early access could matter for limited-stock TVs, gaming systems, toys and other doorbusters.

How Much Does a Sam’s Club Membership Cost?

The regular 2026 membership prices are:

  • Club Membership: $60 per year
  • Plus Membership: $120 per year

Plus includes all Club benefits along with 2% Sam’s Cash on qualifying in-club purchases, free shipping on eligible $50+ orders, free delivery on qualifying $50+ orders, earlier in-club shopping and early access to select online sales.

There’s Already a Sam’s Club Membership Deal for 2026

If you’re not currently a member, you may not have to wait until Black Friday.

As of September 2026, Sam’s Club is offering qualifying new members:

Membership Regular Price Current New-Member Price
Club $60 $25
Plus $120 $55

The current promotion is scheduled to end September 30, 2026, and eligibility requirements apply.

That’s worth considering if you already know you’ll shop the Black Friday sale.

Sam’s Club did offer a $25 Club membership around Black Friday 2025, so another holiday membership promotion is certainly possible.

However, there’s no guarantee that the Black Friday 2026 offer will beat the $25 Club or $55 Plus prices available now.

Is Sam’s Club Plus Worth It for Black Friday?

For someone planning one or two small purchases, probably not just for Black Friday.

For a larger shopping list, Plus becomes more interesting.

Along with early access, Plus members currently receive:

  • 2% Sam’s Cash on qualifying in-club purchases
  • Free shipping on eligible $50+ orders
  • Free delivery from club on qualifying $50+ orders
  • Early shopping at clubs
  • Up to 12 hours of early online access to select major sales

Sam’s Club currently opens for Plus members at 8:00 a.m., while regular Club members can enter beginning at 9:00 a.m. under normal store hours.

If a popular Black Friday item is available in limited quantities, that extra hour could help.

Will Sam’s Club Be Open on Thanksgiving 2026?

No. Sam’s Club lists Thanksgiving as one of its annual club closure days.

That means Sam’s Club stores should be closed on Thursday, November 26, 2026.

The Black Friday sale can still begin online on Thanksgiving, just as it did in 2025.

If normal hours are used on Black Friday, Plus members would be able to enter beginning at 8:00 a.m., followed by all members at 9:00 a.m. Local hours can vary.

Sam’s Club Cyber Monday 2026

Cyber Monday falls on November 30, 2026.

In 2025, Sam’s Club held a separate one-day Cyber Monday event on December 1. Plus members received 12 hours of early online access beginning at noon ET the day before.

For 2026, we expect Cyber Monday to be a one-day event on November 30, with Plus early access potentially starting on November 29.

The sale should be online-focused, with deals on electronics, home products, clothing, toys, jewelry and furniture.

When Will the Sam’s Club Black Friday 2026 Ad Come Out?

Sam’s Club revealed its 2025 holiday sale schedule in October, with the November Instant Savings Book showing the Black Friday dates and a preview of the main event.

For 2026, we expect the first Black Friday preview sometime in the second half of October.

The larger list of main-event deals will probably arrive in early November.

We’ll update this page once Sam’s Club confirms the dates and releases its 2026 Black Friday ad.

Our Sam’s Club Black Friday 2026 Prediction

We expect Sam’s Club to start Black Friday Doorbusters around November 6-8, followed by its Countdown to Black Friday sale November 15-25 and the main sale November 26-29.

TVs, Apple products, gaming, kitchen appliances, toys, furniture and holiday gifts should have some of the best deals.

Based on last year, a 50-inch 4K TV around $180 to $200, an 85-inch-class TV below $900, a premium nugget ice maker around $300 and larger toy discounts of $50 to $100 are all realistic possibilities.

Plus members should also get up to 12 hours of early online access again.

For now, all 2026 dates and prices above are predictions. We’ll update them once Sam’s Club officially announces its Black Friday sale.
