Harbor Freight Tools Black Friday 2025 Sale – The Ad is Posted!

Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: Every year, Harbor Freight is one of the first retailers to kick off the Black Friday season, and if you’re someone who likes getting a jump on tool deals, no need to wait any longe… their ad just leaked! See all 8 pages posted further down this page.

This year’s sale brings a huge mix of deep discounts, specialty tool markdowns, and several standout price drops across categories like mechanics’ tools, automotive, generators, welding, outdoor equipment, and more. Below is your complete guide to Harbor Freight’s confirmed 2025 Black Friday deals, including all sale dates, early access details, and the highlights.


Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates (Confirmed)

Harbor Freight is sticking with its usual schedule this year:

  • Sale Ends: Monday, December 1, 2025 (Cyber Monday)
  • Inside Track Club Early Access: Monday, November 24–Wednesday, November 26, 2025

As always, Harbor Freight stores remain closed on Thanksgiving Day, but all deals will be available online beginning that morning. If you want early access, and a chance to grab doorbuster-level items before they sell out, Inside Track membership is worth considering.


Inside Track Club Early Access

Hanes Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: This year, Hanes’ Black Friday 2025 Sale is shaping up to be pretty similar to what we’ve seen in years past—but with a few things to keep in mind if you want to get the best deal possible. We’ve pulled together everything you need to know: when the sale will likely start, how long it’ll lasts, what kinds of items to watch for, what kind of discounts are likely, and what kind of offers they had last year that could give us a clue about what’s coming in 2025.


When Hanes’ Back Friday Sale Will Begin?

Hanes typically kicks off its Black Friday deals on hanes.com a week before Thanksgiving. This year, that means you can expect the sale to begin on Thursday, November 20, 2025. It will likely run all the way through Cyber Monday, which lands on December 1, 2025. That gives you just under two weeks to take advantage of deals—but like most online sales, everything is only available while supplies last.

It’s also worth mentioning that last year Hanes offered a special coupon code on Thanksgiving Day itself that was live through Cyber Monday, which stacked on top of the existing sale prices. So even though the sale officially starts on the 20th, it might be smart to wait until November 27th to see if they bring back that kind of extra promo.


Discount Levels and What to Expect

Here’s a quick breakdown of the kinds of deals that were available last year—and are likely to return in some form in 2025:

  • Cyber Deals: Up to 50% off select items. This includes basics like socks, men’s underwear, and other essentials.
  • Clearance Section: Extra 25% off, with discounts reflected automatically at checkout. No code needed.
  • Bras: 3 for $30, with mix-and-match available on select styles.
  • Free Shipping on all U.S. orders, but only for Hanes Rewards members.
  • Bonus Coupon Code (CYBER20): Offered last year on Thanksgiving Day for an extra 20% off everything (excluding Cyber Deals and Clearance).

None of these offers required a minimum purchase, which makes them pretty appealing for anyone just looking to grab a few items instead of doing a big shopping haul. The CYBER20 code couldn’t be stacked with other codes, though, and didn’t apply to already-discounted Cyber Deals or clearance items.


Hanes Rewards and Shipping Perks

If you haven’t signed up for Hanes Rewards yet, it’s worth doing that before the sale kicks off. It’s free to join, and the big benefit is free standard shipping (often with no minimum purchase on Black Friday). This only applies to U.S. shipping addresses. If you don’t sign up, you’ll still be able to shop the sale, but you’ll have to pay standard shipping rates unless there’s a site-wide free shipping offer in place.

Another nice thing: returns are always free, which gives a little extra peace of mind if you’re unsure about sizing or fit.


Sample Sale Items from Last Year

To give you a clearer picture of what might be included this year, here are some examples of items that were part of last year’s Black Friday sale:

  • Hanes Men’s Comfort Flex Fit Boxer Briefs (6-pack) – Originally around $25, dropped to about $12.50 during Cyber Deals.
  • Hanes Women’s ComfortSoft Low Rise Briefs (6-pack) – Discounted by 50%, down to under $8.
  • Hanes Originals Women’s Bralette (Style MHG521) – Part of the 3 for $30 promotion.
  • X-Temp Kids’ Performance Boxer Briefs (5-pack) – 40% off, priced under $10 during the event.
  • Men’s Crew Socks (12-pack) – Down from $18 to around $9.
  • EcoSmart Fleece Hoodies – Some colors and sizes dropped as low as $7–$10 in the clearance section.

These prices may vary year to year, but they give a good baseline of what you might expect again in 2025.

Hallmark Cards Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: Every year around Thanksgiving, Hallmark kicks off one of its biggest sales of the season—its annual Black Friday sale. If you’re looking to pick up Christmas cards, holiday decor, or cute gifts, this is a sale worth knowing about.

Here’s a breakdown of when the sale will likely start, what kinds of items will be on sale, how much you can expect to save, and examples of actual discounts from last year to help you plan your shopping.


Expected Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

Hallmark’s Black Friday 2025 sale is expected to begin on Monday, November 24, 2025, which is the Monday of Thanksgiving week. This matches the timing of last year’s sale, which also started the Monday before Thanksgiving. The event typically runs straight through Cyber Monday, which falls on December 1, 2025 this year.

This gives you a full week to browse and buy, rather than being limited to just one or two days. It’s an online-only sale at hallmark.com—so don’t expect to see the same deals in physical Hallmark Gold Crown stores.


Expected Discount Levels

For 2025, you can expect a sitewide discount of 20% off thousands of items. That’s in line with what they offered last year and the year before. It’s a flat discount across many categories, making it easy to understand and apply, with no complicated tiered offers or promo codes to figure out.

However, there are some limits. In past years, Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments were usually excluded from the sale, and that will likely be the case again this year. Other exclusions may apply too, so it’s best to check their website once the sale is live for the complete terms and conditions.


What Will Be on Sale

Hallmark’s Black Friday sale typically covers a wide range of holiday and gift-related merchandise. Here’s a general list of what you can expect to find marked down:

  • Christmas Cards (boxed sets and singles)
  • 3D Pop-Up Cards
  • Holiday-Themed Plush Toys
  • Christmas Ornaments (excluding Keepsake line)
  • Wrapping Paper and Gift Bags
  • Tea Towels and Home Decor
  • Musical Figurines
  • Holiday Plates and Tableware
  • Photo Cards
  • Throw Blankets and Pillows
  • Seasonal Storybooks for Kids

The range is wide enough to make the sale worth browsing whether you’re buying gifts or just topping up your holiday supplies.


Examples of Last Year’s Deals

Looking at the 2024 sale gives us a clear idea of what might be offered again in 2025. Here’s a breakdown of some real deals Hallmark featured last year, along with their regular and sale prices:

Books & Kids’ Items

  • Gift-Giving Bandit Book — $4.79 (reg. $5.99)
  • Grinch on Sled Musical Plush (9.5”) — $31.99 (reg. $39.99)
  • Peanuts Snoopy Plush (Sound/Motion) — $31.99 (reg. $39.99)

Cards

  • Vintage Kissing Santa Card — $4.47 (reg. $5.50)
  • Snowman Money Holder Card — $2.39 (reg. $2.99)
  • Spinning Tree Musical 3D Pop-Up — $11.19 (reg. $13.09)
  • Vintage Santa 3D Pop-Up — $6.39 (reg. $7.99)

Holiday Decor & Figurines

  • Happy Tappers Set of 4 — $79.99 (reg. $99.99)
  • Mickey Gingerbread Nutcracker (13.5”) — $47.99 (reg. $59.99)
  • Jolly in the John Snowman — $15.99 (reg. $19.09)

Home & Kitchen

  • Vintage Santa Tea Towel (18×26”) — $13.59 (reg. $16.99)
  • “Joy” Dessert Plates, 8-pack — $3.19 (reg. $3.90)
  • Peanuts Holiday Throw (50×60”) — $27.99 (reg. $34.99)

Wrapping & Presentation

  • Folk Art Wreath Photo Card — from $1.49 each
  • Santa Faces Medium Gift Bag (9.6”) — $2.79 (reg. $3.49)

These examples show that even though Hallmark is known for premium cards and products, the discounts during Black Friday can bring many items into a very reasonable price range.


What Not to Expect

While the sale covers a lot, it doesn’t include everything. You shouldn’t expect:

  • Deals in-store. These are typically online-exclusive, so visiting a Hallmark store won’t get you the same offers.
  • Deals on Keepsake Ornaments. These collector items are almost always excluded.
  • Stackable discounts. The 20% off is a flat sitewide discount and usually cannot be combined with other offers or coupons.
  • Long return window extensions. Hallmark’s return policies are usually standard, even during holiday sales, so check the fine print before buying gifts.
