Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: If you’re looking for a deal on a new pressure cooker, air fryer, or other countertop appliance, Instant Pot’s upcoming Black Friday sale is worth keeping an eye on. Based on past trends and what we know so far, here’s what you can expect from Instant Pot’s Black Friday 2025 sale, including when it will start, how long it will last, the types of products you’ll find, average discount levels, and examples from previous years.

When the Black Friday 2025 Sale Will Likely Start

In 2025, Black Friday falls on November 28, 2025. That’s when the main Instant Pot sale is expected to begin. The sale will likely run through the weekend and transition into a Cyber Monday event on December 1, 2025. Based on how the brand has handled past years, there probably won’t be many early deals released ahead of Black Friday, so most of the markdowns should drop all at once when the sale officially kicks off.

Instant Pot doesn’t usually spread its Black Friday offers over a long timeline the way some other brands do. That means if you want to get the best items at the lowest prices, it’s best to shop on Friday morning or sometime over the weekend before things sell out. Some items could also carry over to Cyber Monday, but those will probably be limited.

Where to Find the Deals

Instant Pot products are sold through a range of major retailers, so deals are expected to appear in several places. Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and Instant Pot’s own website are likely to feature most of the sale prices. The discounts tend to be consistent across retailers, though stock levels may vary. For example, some exclusive bundle deals might be offered only on Instant Brands’ website, while Amazon may have lightning deals with limited quantities.

It’s a good idea to compare prices between a few stores before buying. You might see the same appliance bundled with different accessories, or one site may offer free shipping or extra perks.

How Big the Discounts Will Be

You can expect to see markdowns ranging from around 20% to over 50% off during the Instant Pot Black Friday sale. Some of the best discounts will be reserved for specific models, including older versions or items that have been replaced by newer designs. In past years, the average discount for a core product like a multicooker or air fryer has been about 40% off, with certain models going higher.

For 2025, it’s likely that new or recently updated models won’t be discounted as heavily, but older ones may see steep price cuts. Accessories and bundles may also be included in the sale, with some smaller items marked down by around 25% to 35%.

Discount Examples from Previous Years

To get a sense of what to expect this year, it helps to look at last year’s deals. During the Black Friday 2024 sale, here were some notable price drops:

• Instant Pot Omni 6-Slice Air Fryer Toaster Oven (18L) was 41% off.
• Instant Pot 6-Quart Multi-Cooker with Accessories was 54% off.
• Instant Pot Rio Wide 7.5-Quart Multi-Cooker was on sale for $99.99, down $30 from its regular price.

These types of deals have been consistent for a few years. Usually, at least one 6-quart pressure cooker drops by 50% or more, and air fryers tend to land in the 35% to 45% off range. High-capacity models or combo units may not get as big a cut in dollar amount but still represent strong value during Black Friday.

Popular Models to Watch for

Based on popularity and past trends, here are some models that may be included in 2025’s sale:

• Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1: This classic model often gets marked down and is one of the most widely used.
• Instant Pot Duo Plus: A step up from the standard Duo with more functions, this one usually sees a solid discount.
• Instant Pot Pro and Pro Plus: These are higher-end versions with more advanced settings. Expect moderate discounts, possibly in the 20% to 30% range.
• Instant Pot Crisp and Duo Crisp: These combo models (pressure cookers with air fryers) are common sale items.
• Instant Omni Toaster Oven Series: This line of multifunction ovens has been discounted during both Black Friday and Cyber Monday in recent years.

What Not to Expect

While there are plenty of great discounts, not everything will be heavily marked down. Brand-new releases or recently updated models may only get slight reductions. Instant Pot typically focuses on older or current-generation models for the biggest price drops.

Also, don’t expect sitewide sales or blanket percentage-off codes. The deals are usually targeted to specific products and not general markdowns across the board.

Updated on Tuesday, November 11, 2025: If you’re a regular Hy-Vee shopper, then you probably already know that their Black Friday sale is not massive like some of the big-box store ads, but it has a focused list of solid deals, especially for the holidays. Here’s what you can expect from Hy-Vee’s upcoming event in 2025.

When Will Hy-Vee’s Black Friday 2025 Sale Likely Begin?

Hy-Vee typically runs a three-day Black Friday sale. Based on how it’s gone in previous years, you can expect the sale to begin on Friday, November 28, 2025, and continue through Sunday, November 30, 2025, or until supplies run out. Some deals are typically only valid on Black Friday itself.

Unlike many other retailers that start rolling out deals weeks in advance, Hy-Vee keeps things concentrated around the actual Black Friday weekend. There’s no early online preview sale or members-only access, just three days of discounts across select departments.

What’s Likely to Be on Sale

Based on what they offered last year, here are the categories you’ll likely see in the sale here in 2025:

1. Gift Cards with Bonus Offers

One of Hy-Vee’s most popular Black Friday deals last year was a $20 Hy-Vee gift card when you spent $150 on select third-party gift cards. This offer was valid in-store only on Black Friday, and it applied to a long list of popular brands.

Some of the gift card brands included:

•  American Eagle
• Apple
• Applebee’s
• Bass Pro Shops
• Buffalo Wild Wings
• Chipotle
• Disney
• Domino’s Pizza
• DoorDash
• Home Depot
• Kohl’s
• Lowe’s
• Nike
• Panera
• PlayStation Store
• Roblox
• Sephora
• Starbucks
• Texas Roadhouse
• TJ Maxx
• Xbox

Just remember it’s usually one of the Friday-only deals, so don’t wait until the weekend.

2. Beauty and Cosmetics

In 2024, Hy-Vee took 20% off all beauty and cosmetics products during the Black Friday event. That included makeup, skincare, and personal care brands typically sold in their HealthMarket section or near the pharmacy. You could find discounts on brands that don’t often go on sale, especially if you’re shopping for stocking stuffers or everyday essentials.

If the same deal returns this year—and there’s a good chance it will—it’ll be a decent opportunity to stock up.

3. Holiday Cards and Seasonal Items

Hy-Vee usually carries a wide range of Hallmark-brand holiday items. Last year, they offered 25% off all Hallmark boxed Christmas and holiday cards. These boxed sets can get pricey, especially if you’re sending out dozens of cards, so the savings can add up.

This type of seasonal discount fits with their overall strategy of offering practical holiday shopping solutions. Look for similar markdowns again in 2025, probably starting on Black Friday and continuing through the weekend.

4. Toys and Housewares

Another deal from last year was a $10 Hy-Vee gift card when you spent $75 or more on qualifying toys and housewares. That included kitchen gadgets, kids’ toys, and various home goods.

While the selection at each Hy-Vee location can vary, many stores bring in extra toy stock for the holidays. You’ll often see puzzles, dolls, action figures, educational toys, and branded sets from well-known names. For housewares, think slow cookers, small appliances, utensils, and seasonal bakeware.

This deal is usually good for all three days, but only while supplies last.

5. Grab & Go Food and Meal Deals

Hy-Vee typically offers Grab & Go meals starting at $4.99 to keep shoppers fueled up over Thanskgivng weekend. These deals include pre-made sandwiches, sushi, salads, and other quick eats. It’s not a flashy deal, but it’s practical and something to expect across most store locations.

Some years also include markdowns on party trays, deli items, or bakery goods. If you’re shopping in-store and don’t feel like cooking afterward, this section of the sale is worth checking out.
