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 Wednesday, November 12, 2025: Unlike many cosmetic brands, Revlon won’t be offering Black Friday deals directly through its website since it doesn’t sell to consumers online. That means any discounts will come from retailers that carry Revlon products. Stores like Walgreens, Rite Aid, Walmart, Target, and CVS are the best places to check for sales on cosmetics, haircare, and nail products during the holiday weekend.
Where to Look for Deals
Walgreens – Known for buy-one-get-one deals, discounts on full-size items, and bundled sets. Check both in-store and online.
Walmart – Frequently has some of the deepest discounts, sometimes up to 40% off, with both online and in-store options.
Target – Offers bundles and gift sets, often with extra discounts for RedCard holders or combined promotions.
What to Buy
Popular categories to watch for include:
Makeup: Lipsticks, foundations, mascaras, eyeshadow palettes, and blushes
Haircare: Shampoos, conditioners, treatments, and styling tools
Nail Care: Polishes, manicure kits, and gel nail sets
Gift Sets: Bundled products at better value than individual purchases

Updated on Wednesday, November 12, 2025: If you’re planning to shop RC Willey’s Black Friday 2025 sale this year, here’s a look into what to expect, when the sale will likely happen, what kinds of discounts are realistic, and even some examples from last year to help you plan.
Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates
RC Willey is expected to begin their Black Friday 2025 sale on Black Friday itself, Friday, November 28, 2025. Unlike some other retailers that start the week before or open online first, RC Willey tends to hold the big event on Black Friday itself. That means the best opportunities will happen in-store.
The official doorbusters are usually in-store only and limited to a very short window. If it runs like last year, the key timeframe will be 9:00 am to 11:00 am. Outside of that window, the store will still have discounts across furniture, appliances, electronics, and more, but the deepest one-time price cuts are tied to those early morning hours.
Early Bird Rewards
One of the main reasons people line up outside early is the discount card giveaway. In 2025, the expectation is that the first 200 people through the doors will each receive a $50 discount card. That’s what they did last year just for showing up.
Like most perks, there are rules attached. Last year, the fine print said the card couldn’t be combined with any other coupons or offers, and it was only valid on in-store purchases. It excluded doorbusters, video game consoles, software and accessories, computer products, flooring labor, window coverings, countertops, extended warranties, RC Willey Blue Rewards, competitive price matches, clearance items, and gift card purchases. On top of that, specific high-end brands were excluded such as Apple, Sony, LG, Samsung, Sonos, Dyson, Sub Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Tempur-Pedic, and others.
In other words, the card is best used on mid-tier furniture, mattresses, and general appliances that aren’t on the exclusion list. It’s not a free pass to get $50 off anything, but with the right pick it can make a noticeable difference.
Special Purchase Add-On
Another perk worth keeping in mind is the bonus product offer. Last year, anyone who spent at least $299 on a qualifying purchase could also buy a 2.4 GHz Radio Control Buggy for $17. The buggy was valued around $75, which made it a fun extra for anyone already planning a larger purchase.
What to Expect in Furniture
Furniture is RC Willey’s main category, and Black Friday is usually one of the best times to buy. Based on prior years, the discounts here can range anywhere from 20% to 70% off, depending on the item.
Large sectionals, sofas, recliners, and bedroom sets are usually included. The highest discounts often apply to discontinued collections or floor models, while current year sets might only see 15% or 20% taken off. Still, when you’re talking about items that cost $1,000 or more, even a smaller percentage off is meaningful.
Dining sets and accent furniture also tend to be marked down. If you’ve been waiting to upgrade your dining room or replace worn-out living room seating, this is one of the better times of the year to do it.
Mattresses and Bedroom Deals
Mattresses are another popular category for Black Friday at RC Willey. While brands like Tempur-Pedic and select Sealy models are usually excluded from the discount card promotion, other mattresses still see big markdowns.
Last year, shoppers saw price drops of several hundred dollars on popular queen and king sets. Bundles that included mattress and foundation were also discounted.
Bedroom furniture like dressers, nightstands, and full bed frames often get included in larger sales. If you need a complete set, this is the season to save more than at other times of the year.
Appliances
Big appliances are another major focus. Refrigerators, washers, dryers, ovens, and dishwashers are all categories where Black Friday pricing shows up.
RC Willey has historically offered rebates in addition to discounts, and some purchases come with free delivery or installation. That’s worth paying attention to, because delivery and setup can add significant cost outside of sale events.
Brand exclusions apply here too. High-end manufacturers like Sub Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Fisher & Paykel, and Electrolux often don’t get included in blanket discounts. But mid-range brands usually do, and that’s where shoppers can find $200–$500 savings or package deals.
Electronics and Home Entertainment
RC Willey isn’t primarily an electronics store, but they still stock TVs, speakers, sound systems, and other home entertainment products.
Black Friday 2024 included discounts on large screen TVs from Samsung and LG, though certain models were excluded from coupon use. Still, promotional bundles were available, and prices on 55-inch and 65-inch TVs dropped significantly compared to earlier in the fall.
Audio gear and accessories are also part of the mix. While premium brands like Sonos and Polk Audio are sometimes excluded, mid-level speakers, soundbars, and home theater packages often see markdowns.
Outdoor and Seasonal Items
RC Willey also uses Black Friday to clear out seasonal goods. Patio furniture, grills, and outdoor seating sometimes get deep discounts as the store makes space for winter and spring stock.
It’s not the main attraction, but if you’re willing to plan ahead for next summer, you can grab a deal here that won’t come back until clearance season.

Updated on Wednesday, November 12, 2025: Based on last year’s event and their usual holiday patterns, we’ve pulled together all the important details for Rack Room Shoes’ upcoming Black Friday 2025 sale.
Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates & Timing
Rack Room Shoes is expected to start its Black Friday 2025 sale on Tuesday, November 25, 2025 both in-stores and at rackroomshoes.com. That is two days before Thanksgiving.
The event is likely to run through Saturday, November 29, 2025, or until supplies run out. In past years, popular sizes and styles have sold out quickly, especially sneakers and casual everyday shoes. Since the event begins early, checking the deals online or visiting in-store as soon as the sale kicks off is usually the best way to secure what you want.
Typical Discounts
Rack Room Shoes usually offers a mix of percentage-based discounts, coupons, and their well-known Buy One, Get One 50% Off (BOGO) promotion. For 2025, the main offers are expected to include:
$15 off orders of $99 or more.
$30 off orders of $149 or more.
Up to 30% off select footwear brands.
BOGO 50% off select styles.
These promotions often run at the same time, but keep in mind that coupon discounts cannot always be stacked with BOGO deals. Shoppers typically need to choose which offer gives the better value based on what they are buying.
Coupon Offer Details
The $15 off $99 and $30 off $149 coupons are likely to return in 2025. These offers usually apply in-store and online, but only one coupon can be used per transaction. In past years, the coupons came with several restrictions.
For example, last year the coupon could not be combined with the BOGO free offer, gift card purchases, or certain brands. It was also limited to one use per customer and was not redeemable for cash. However, it could be combined with earned Rack Room Rewards, which gave regular customers a way to maximize savings.
If Rack Room follows the same rules in 2025, you will want to look carefully at the fine print before applying the coupon.
BOGO 50% Off Promotion
The Buy One, Get One 50% Off deal has become a signature Rack Room Shoes offer during Black Friday. It typically covers a wide range of footwear styles, though not all brands are included.
Here’s how it works: when you buy one pair at regular price, you can get a second pair of equal or lesser value for half off. Accessories and apparel are usually excluded. In addition, many of the most popular athletic and lifestyle brands are left out of the BOGO deal. That includes Nike, Adidas, Converse, Crocs, Hey Dude, New Balance, Puma, Skechers, Timberland, and several others.
Even with the exclusions, the BOGO promotion still applies to plenty of styles across casual, dress, and seasonal categories. If you are shopping for families or need multiple pairs, this deal can be one of the most cost-effective ways to shop.
Featured Deals from Last Year
Looking back at Black Friday 2024 gives a good idea of what might return this year. Some of the deals from last year included:
Select Nike running shoes around 25% off
Adidas casual sneakers at up to 30% off
Crocs clogs and sandals with 20% to 25% off in certain colors
Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars marked down up to 30%
Hey Dude slip-ons at about 20% off on limited colors and styles
Seasonal boots and winter footwear from brands like Bearpaw and similar labels for 30% off
Kids’ shoes included in BOGO 50% off, covering many back-to-school and everyday sneaker options
Rewards Program and Extra Savings
Rack Room Shoes has a Rack Room Rewards loyalty program that allows customers to earn points with purchases. During Black Friday, rewards can usually be combined with some promotions, though exclusions apply.
In past years, coupons such as the $15 off $99 were stackable with rewards but not with other discounts like BOGO Free. If you are a member of the program, this can give you an extra edge, especially if you already have points ready to redeem.
Exclusions to Watch
One of the key things to know about Rack Room Shoes’ Black Friday deals is that many of the best-known athletic brands are excluded from coupons and BOGO promotions. Last year, the list of exclusions included:
Adidas
Asics
Birkenstock
Brooks
Converse
Crocs
Dr. Martens
Hey Dude
Hunter
KEEN
Merrell
New Balance
Nike
Puma
Skechers
Timberland
Under Armour
And several others
