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.

Best Buy’s Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

February 18, 2025 BlackerFriday.com 2 Comments

If you’re looking to upgrade your TV, grab a new gaming console, or score discounts on home appliances, then you’ll soon have your chance at Best Buy’s upcoming Black Friday sale. Here’s a complete breakdown of what to expect from Best Buy here in 2025, including expected sale dates, popular discounts, and shopping tips.

When Will Best Buy’s Black Friday 2025 Sale Start and End?

Based on previous years, Best Buy’s Black Friday sale for 2025 is expected to begin on Friday, November 7, 2025—a full 3 weeks before Black Friday itself. However, new doorbuster deals will likely be released in stages:

Friday, November 7, 2025: Expected weekly doorbuster deals begin on select tech items like laptops, TVs, and electronics. Likely running every Friday through December 19, 2025.
Friday, November 21, 2025: Expected first wave of main Black Friday deals.
Friday, November 28, 2025 (Black Friday itself): Another round of big-ticket discounts expected, likely featuring TVs, gaming consoles, and personal electronics.
Sunday, November 30, 2025: Expected start of Best Buy’s Cyber Monday 2025 Sale. Expect to save up to 50% off a wide range of items, including popular holiday gifts and tech.

For Best Buy Plus and Total members, early access to these deals is expected every Thursday, giving them a head start before the general public.

Will Best Buy Be Open on Thanksgiving?

For the past several years, many major retailers, including Best Buy, have remained closed on Thanksgiving Day. In 2025, Best Buy is likely to follow this trend again. Stores are expected to reopen at 5:00 AM on Black Friday morning (November 28, 2025) to kick off in-store shopping.

What Discounts Can You Expect?

As you would expect, you’ll find items on sale from all categories across the store. That will include TV’s, laptops, small kitchen appliances, major appliances, personal electronics and games/gaming systems. You can scroll down the page to see last year’s ad and featured offers to get a general idea of what’s to come.

Extended Return Policy

One of the perks of shopping at Best Buy during Black Friday is their extended holiday return window. Purchases made throughout November and December 2025 will likely be returnable until January 13, 2026. However, keep in mind that this excludes all third-party items, so double-check the fine print before buying.

Birkenstock’s Black Friday 2025 Sale & Ad

February 18, 2025 BlackerFriday.com Leave a comment

Black Friday is when you’ll find just about all of your favorite brands on sale… From UGG to Nike, Adidas to Puma, and a whole lot more. But what about Birkenstock? Will we see any deals coming from them this Thanksgiving weekend?

Will Birkenstock run a Black Friday sale this year?

Unfortunately, Birkenstock never runs a Black Friday sale directly on their site. As a matter of fact, they don’t run any sales in the United States at all, nor do they have any outlets stores (we’ve heard that once in a while they have a sale in their home country of Germany, that’s where they are originate from). So your only chance to save is at one of their retailers like at Amazon, Nordstrom, DSW or Zappos, which is still hard to come by.

“But I found an awesome deal!”

Just wait a second… if you found a deal on a pair of Birkenstock’s that’s almost too good to be true then hold back. First take a look and see if it’s at an authorized reseller because chances are the shoes you found are counterfeits. It’s somewhat similar to what we see at other high-end brands such as Louis Vuitton, Hermes and Gucci — The internet is filled with cheap knock-offs. It’s best to stay away from those because even though they may look the same at first appearance, you’re not getting the same quality, craftsmanship and comfort as you do from an authentic pair of shoes.
