Lego Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

3 Comments

Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: Every year, LEGO holds one of its most anticipated sales events during Thanksgiving weekend. Based on past trends and official announcements from previous years, there’s a lot we can reasonably expect from LEGO’s 2025 Black Friday sale. Here’s a breakdown of what the sale will probably look like, when it’s expected to go live, what kind of deals might show up, and how to make the most of it.

LEGO’s Black Friday Sale 2025 Dates

LEGO is expected to launch its 2025 Black Friday sale on Friday, November 28, 2025. That’s the official Black Friday date this year. LEGO typically doesn’t jump the gun too early, like some other retailers. Instead, they release their full ad and deal details a few days before the sale begins. Based on past patterns, we should see their official announcement go live on Tuesday, November 25, 2025.

The sale usually runs from Black Friday through Cyber Monday, which falls on December 1, 2025 this year. It’s important to know, though, that everything is “while supplies last.” If you wait too long, some of the better sets might sell out early. And once they’re gone, LEGO usually doesn’t restock sale items during the promotion period.

Where Will the Deals Be Available?

You’ll be able to shop LEGO’s Black Friday deals in two places:

  • LEGO.com (their official website)
  • LEGO-branded retail stores

Most of the deals are the same whether you shop online or in-store, but inventory can vary. Some stores may run out of specific items quicker than others, and online orders may be delayed due to high traffic. If you’re after something specific, shopping right when the sale starts is your best bet.

How Much Will Be Discounted?

LEGO typically doesn’t go overboard with their Black Friday discounts. It’s not a sitewide sale, and it rarely includes new releases or hot exclusives. But you can usually expect a selection of LEGO sets marked down by 20% or more.

Some sets might be discounted more heavily if they’re being retired soon, or if they didn’t sell well earlier in the year. On the flip side, don’t expect any discounts on new or extremely popular sets like modular buildings, large Star Wars UCS models, or recent Ideas sets. These are usually excluded.

Free Gifts with Purchase (GWP)

LEGO’s Black Friday event always includes a free gift with purchase deal. These are exclusive mini sets or seasonal builds that LEGO includes for free when your order total hits a certain amount.

In 2024, LEGO gave away two different gifts depending on how much you spent:

  • Spend $170 or more, and you received the Winter Holiday Train (40700).
  • Spend $250 or more, and you got the Retro Record Player (40699).

It’s very likely LEGO will do something similar in 2025. The actual free sets might be different this year, but you can count on there being at least one or two gift tiers. These GWPs are only available while supplies last, so if you want one, it’s smart to shop early on Friday.

Also, these GWPs are only offered on full-price purchases and qualifying discounted items. Some heavily discounted or partner sets may not count toward the GWP threshold.

What Kind of Sets Will Be on Sale?

LEGO doesn’t discount everything. The deals are typically limited to select sets, usually grouped into themes that aren’t top sellers but are still popular. Based on last year and years prior, here are the types of sets likely to go on sale:

  • City: This theme often gets a handful of smaller and mid-range sets discounted. Police stations, fire trucks, and town buildings might be marked down.
  • Friends: Another regular in LEGO sales. You’ll probably find some of the Heartlake City builds with 20–30% off.
  • Technic: Some of the older vehicles or less premium builds may be discounted.
  • DOTS and Classic: Smaller creative or arts-and-crafts-style sets are often part of the sale.
  • Marvel and DC: Some superhero sets, especially older ones or those not tied to new movie releases, might be included.
  • Harry Potter: Occasionally you’ll see a Hogwarts expansion or classroom set discounted, but don’t count on the larger ones being included.
  • Ninjago and Monkie Kid: These sometimes show up in LEGO’s sales, depending on stock and theme popularity that year.
  • Speed Champions: A few of the vehicles from this line might be discounted if newer waves have already taken over the spotlight.

In short, if it’s a high-demand, exclusive, or collector-level set, it probably won’t be part of the Black Friday discounts. But if it’s been around a while or isn’t a top-seller, you might see a deal.

Featured Deals Last Year

To give you an idea of what could show up in 2025, here’s a look at some of the features deals LEGO offered during Black Friday last year:

  • LEGO City Grocery Store (60347): Was $69.99, down to $55.99 (20% off)
  • LEGO Marvel Shuri’s Sunbird (76211): Was $49.99, discounted to $39.99 (20% off)
  • LEGO Technic Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 (42138): Dropped from $49.99 to $39.99
  • LEGO Friends Tree-Planting Vehicle (41707): Reduced to $19.99 from $29.99 (33% off)
  • LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Carriage and Thestrals (76400): Was $19.99, dropped to $15.99
  • LEGO DOTS Big Message Board (41952): Discounted from $39.99 to $27.99 (30% off)

These were all part of LEGO’s official Black Friday listings, not just clearance items. Sets that were more than a year old or didn’t fly off shelves when released were the most likely to show up on sale.

VIP Early Access

If you’re a LEGO VIP member (which is free to join), you might get early access to some Black Friday offers. Last year, VIPs were given advance notice of the upcoming deals and sometimes early access to gift-with-purchase promos.

For 2025, there’s a good chance LEGO will do the same thing. They may start offering early access for VIPs as early as November 26 or 27, ahead of the general sale. There might also be VIP-only bundles or exclusive rewards available through the rewards center.

Keep an eye on your email or your LEGO account dashboard if you’re signed up for VIP. While the selection is mostly the same, getting in early means you’ll have first crack at the better items before they sell out.

Le Creuset Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

Leave a comment

Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: Here’s a look at what you need to know about Le Creuset’s upcoming Black Friday 2025 sale, including when it will likely start, what kinds of discounts to expect, which items were marked down last year, and what might show up again this year.

Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

Le Creuset’s Black Friday sale in 2025 is expected to begin on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, which is the day before Thanksgiving. That’s consistent with what they’ve done in the past few years. The sale is likely to run through Sunday, November 30, 2025, or until supplies last.

You’ll be able to shop online at lecreuset.com and at their standalone Signature stores. The outlet stores typically don’t participate in this sale, so it’s best to shop online or at a full retail location. The deals are usually available starting early in the morning on launch day and are first-come, first-served for anything with limited quantities.

What Discounts to Expect

You can usually expect up to 45% off during this sale. Not everything gets discounted that deeply, but there’s usually a wide range of products marked down by 20% to 45%. The most popular colors and shapes might go fast, so it’s a good idea to shop early if there’s something specific you want.

Discounts generally apply to select colors, and some of the seasonal shades may be included. In past years, both classic and limited-edition colors have been featured.

Some items are consistently marked down each year, including:

  • Dutch ovens
  • Signature skillets
  • Sauteuses
  • Soup pots
  • Mugs and bakeware sets

The higher the original price, the bigger the percentage savings you might see.

Free Gift With Purchase Offer

One of the better perks during the Le Creuset Black Friday event is the free gift with purchase. If your order total hits $250 or more, you can qualify for a bonus item. Last year, shoppers received two free Noel mugs when they used the promo code CHEER during checkout.

This year’s gift hasn’t been confirmed yet, but the $250 threshold is expected to stay the same. Just make sure that your total hits $250 before tax and shipping charges, and that gift card purchases don’t count toward the minimum.

The offer usually becomes available automatically at checkout, or you might need to enter a code if they offer one again. You’ll be able to see the terms and details once the sale is live on their site.

Items That Were on Sale Last Year

To get a sense of what might be included this year, it helps to look at what was part of the Black Friday sale in 2024. Here’s a quick list of some items that were discounted last year and how much they were marked down:

  • 4.5-Qt Round Dutch Oven — ~$200 (reg. $360, ~44% off)
  • Signature Skillet (10.25″) — ~$110 (reg. $180, ~39% off)
  • Sauteuse (3.5 qt) — $180 (reg. $300, ~40% off)
  • Soup Pot w/ Silicone Twist Lid — $140 (reg. $250, ~44% off)
  • Bakeware Sets (Assorted) — 25–35% off
  • Holiday Mugs, Set of 2 — Free w/ $250+ purchase (value $50) or $30 if purchased separately

Based on these trends, you can expect similar product categories and price ranges for 2025. Some limited-edition colors or seasonal items may also be added into the sale section.

What’s Usually Not Included

It’s also important to know what might not be part of the Black Friday event:

  • New releases or recently launched colors are often excluded.
  • Outlet-only items are not usually discounted through the Signature Store or online sale.
  • Gift cards don’t qualify for discounts or count toward gift-with-purchase totals.
  • Cookware sets may not be part of the sale, unless they are featured in a specific promotion.
  • Accessories like lids and knobs are usually not discounted as heavily, if at all.

If you’re looking for a specific item and don’t see it listed in the sale section, it likely isn’t included.

Lane Bryant Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

1 Comment

Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: Whether you’re after sweaters, bras, trend tops, or just stocking up on basics, this year’s Black Friday event at Lane Bryant is typically worth checking out. Here’s a full breakdown of what the sale might look like, when it will likely start, how the discounts will work, and what kind of deals were offered last year.

Lane Bryant’s Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

If Lane Bryant sticks to their usual schedule, Black Friday deals will officially begin on Monday, November 24, 2025, both in-stores and at lanebryant.com. That’s three days before Thanksgiving.

It’s also likely that Lane Bryant will kick things off even earlier with some pre-Black Friday “Beat The Rush” deals. These sales usually show up in the week leading into Thanksgiving. While they’re not always the full Black Friday offer, they often include smaller discounts or early access to select items.

In-store and online sales typically run through Saturday night. This year that falls on Saturday, November, 29, 2025. A new one-day-only Cyber Monday event is expected to arrive soon afterwards.

Expected Discount Levels & Storewide Deals

Based on past trends, shoppers can expect 50% off nearly everything at Lane Bryant during Black Friday 2025. That’s a broad discount across a wide range of categories including apparel, accessories, sleepwear, and bras. This isn’t limited to clearance or off-season items — the discount often applies to current season full-price merchandise, although it excludes certain exceptions like third-party brands and doorbusters.

The 50% discount usually applies automatically at checkout, either online or in stores. One important thing to note is that it’s generally not stackable with other coupons or promo codes, so you won’t be able to double up on savings.

Also, while the 50% off promo is generous, it’s only valid while supplies last. So if there’s a specific size, color, or style you’re eyeing, it’s best not to wait too long.

Doorbuster Deals to Watch For

Lane Bryant doesn’t just offer a flat discount across the store — they also feature doorbusters with deeper markdowns on select styles. These limited-time offers are usually only available while supplies last and typically rotate during the sale period.

Here are some examples of what was offered last year and what might return in 2025:

$29 Sweaters

One of the standout doorbusters from last year was the $29 sweater deal. It included a range of select sweater styles, which was a big win for those shopping for cold-weather essentials. This deal was available in stores and online but excluded clearance and early access items.

Considering the regular prices on Lane Bryant sweaters can run significantly higher, this was one of the more eye-catching discounts. Expect a similar offer this year with fresh styles for winter.

Tees Starting at $12

Another popular doorbuster involved basic and long-sleeve tees. Short sleeve tees were offered for $12, and long sleeve versions were marked at $15. These are basics that tend to sell fast, especially in extended sizes and neutral colors.

If you’re looking to stock up on wardrobe staples, this is one of the best value buys. The tees tend to be part of Lane Bryant’s core collection, so they’re versatile and seasonless.

$25 Trend Tops

Lane Bryant also featured select fashion tops for $25, giving shoppers the chance to grab more styled, trend-forward pieces at a budget-friendly price. These weren’t just plain tops — many included prints, details like lace or ruching, and seasonal colors.

Since these are usually the items that draw attention during new arrivals, they can disappear quickly. Keep an eye out early in the sale to grab the best styles.

Possible Exclusions & Fine Print

Like with most big holiday promotions, there are a few things to be aware of in the fine print.

  • Third-party brands are often excluded. This means if you’re browsing collabs or featured products that Lane Bryant carries from other labels, those might not be part of the discount.
  • Doorbusters are often excluded from other offers and may not allow returns or price adjustments after the sale ends.
  • Coupons and other discounts usually can’t be combined with Black Friday pricing unless the store states otherwise.

It’s a good idea to double-check product pages online or ask in-store if you’re not sure whether something qualifies.
