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.

Updated on Monday, December 9, 2024: Unlike traditional retail stores, like Macy’s for example that desperately needs to sell remaining holiday inventory to make room for the new upcoming Spring 2025 collections, tire shops aren’t that way. You’re not going to see the same clearance-type sales coming post Christmas from them, including at Tire Rack.
Does Tire Rack Have An After Christmas Sale?
The quick answer is no, there won’t be any after Christmas sale at Tire Rack this year.
In fact, Tire Rack is one of those shops tries to keep prices competitive year-round. That’s why you won’t ever see them run a Black Friday, Cyber Monday or any other holiday-specific sale. Some other tire shops do (like Discount Tire for example) but not Tire Rack.
But the good news for all of you bargain hunters is that some of the best rebates of the year are already available today!
Tire Rack’s Current Offers
Here’s a complete list of all the current offers and rebates available today at Tire Rack. The specific terms and conditions for each one of these offers can be found at tirerack.com/specialoffers.
Which Tires To Choose?
Just because something is on sale it doesn’t mean you should buy it. Especially when it comes to tires — The wrong tires on your type of car or driving conditions can end up causing a rough ride, or even worse, can be dangerous.
That’s why if you’re not exactly sure what to get, you can use Tire Rack’s tire decision guide to help you choose the best fit for your vehicle. Then once you reach the page of tailored results, be on the lookout for all the results where you see the green thumbs up icon. That means those tires are consumer recommended.

Updated on Monday, December 9, 2024: If you’ve been eyeing some of Timberland’s rugged boots, waterproof shoes, or durable outerwear, here’s everything you need to know about the 2024 After Christmas Sale: when it will likely take place, the discounts to expect, what to buy, and how to make the most of the deals.
When Does Timberland’s After Christmas Sale Begin?
If you’re already starting to make your holiday shopping list for the post-Christmas sales, you’ll be pleased to know that Timberland’s After Christmas Sale will likely begin on or slightly before Christmas Day, 2024.
The sale will likely run through early January 2025, so you’ll have plenty of time to grab deals, but you should still act fast—these sales are usually only available while supplies last. Stock tends to dwindle quickly, so shopping early is key to scoring the best selection.
What Discounts Can You Expect?
Timberland’s After Christmas Sale typically offers substantial markdowns on a wide range of their products, and 2024 will likely be no exception. While Timberland is known for quality, durable footwear and outdoor gear, the prices tend to be on the higher side. That’s why the After Christmas Sale is a great chance to save some serious cash.
Up to 50% Off Select Sale Footwear
Footwear is a major part of Timberland’s brand, and during the After Christmas Sale, you can expect savings of up to 50% off select sale footwear. This includes Timberland’s iconic boots, hiking shoes, work boots, and casual styles. Whether you’re looking for something rugged enough to handle tough outdoor conditions or simply need a stylish yet functional pair of boots, Timberland’s selection will likely be deeply discounted.
The exact styles and price points will be similar to what Timberland offered during their Black Friday Sale earlier in the season. Expect discounts on some of the brand’s most popular and recognizable models, like the 6-Inch Premium Waterproof Boots or Chukka Boots. Keep an eye out for seasonal styles, too—Winter boots and waterproof footwear are always a good bet during this event.
Extra 20% Off Select Sale Boots, Shoes, Clothing, and Accessories
In addition to the standard markdowns, Timberland often offers an extra 20% off select sale items, which could include boots, shoes, clothing, and accessories. If you’re shopping for outerwear like jackets, coats, or even cold-weather gear like hats, gloves, and scarves, expect to find even further reductions on top of the already discounted prices.
Timberland’s clothing selection, while smaller than their footwear collection, can include items such as fleece jackets, thermal layers, and durable pants, all of which will likely be on sale. Accessories such as backpacks, belts, and hats may also be part of the sale, so it’s worth checking those categories to snag some bargains.
As with any of Timberland’s sales, the extra 20% off applies to select items, so the products eligible for this additional discount may vary. Be sure to browse through the sale section of the website carefully and look for items that are clearly marked as eligible for the extra savings.
What to Buy During Timberland’s After Christmas Sale
Timberland’s After Christmas Sale is an ideal time to purchase footwear, clothing, and outdoor gear that can last you well beyond the holidays. While Timberland is known for high-quality, durable products, the price tags can be steep, making their seasonal sales an excellent opportunity to score major discounts.
Footwear
One of the biggest draws of Timberland’s sales is their footwear, and the After Christmas Sale will likely feature a variety of boots and shoes for both men and women at discounts of up to 50%. Here are some of the types of footwear you should look for:
Waterproof Boots: Timberland’s waterproof boots are a fan favorite, especially for people who live in areas with lots of rain or snow. Expect to see a number of popular models, such as their 6-Inch Premium Waterproof Boots, marked down by up to 50%.
Work Boots: Timberland is well-known for its durable work boots, which are designed for comfort and protection during long days in the field. These boots often have reinforced soles, waterproof features, and long-lasting materials that make them worth the investment. With 50% off, now is the time to grab a pair.
Casual Shoes: Timberland also carries casual shoes and sneakers, which may be included in the sale as well. From comfortable slip-ons to stylish sneakers, you’ll likely find deals on these more everyday options.
Hiking Boots: If you’re into outdoor activities like hiking or trail walking, look for hiking boots from Timberland, which are often available at deep discounts during the After Christmas Sale. These boots are designed to be both functional and stylish, with features like shock absorption, waterproofing, and ample support.
Outerwear and Clothing
If you’re in the market for a new jacket, Timberland’s After Christmas Sale often features markdowns on their selection of outerwear, sweaters, fleece, and pants. Some of these items are essential for the colder months, and with discounts of up to 50%, you can stay warm and stylish without breaking the bank. Here are some key items to consider:

Fleece and Sweaters: If you need some cozy layers, Timberland’s fleece jackets, sweaters, and thermals are worth considering. These items are not only warm but also lightweight and breathable, making them great for layering in the colder months.
Pants and Shorts: Timberland’s pants are often rugged enough for outdoor work but stylish enough for casual outings. If you need durable pants for hiking or just everyday wear, look for deals on these pieces during the sale.
Accessories

Updated on Monday, December 9, 2024: Literally once the clock strikes midnight on Christmas day is when we begin getting bombarded with all the after Christmas sales emails. But one that won’t be coming this year is from Tiffany & Co.
Will Tiffany Run An After Christmas Sale?
The short answer is no. There will not be an after Christmas sale at Tiffany’s this year. In fact, Tiffany is one of the handful of stores that has a policy of no discounting, ever. Not on Black Friday, Cyber Monday or any other day of the year. The same goes for many of the other high-end brands such as Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Hermes and Prada.
Why No Sales?
Tiffany does this to maintain high brand value and to keep a perception of exclusivity. Tiffany products are expensive and the high prices make their jewelry “special”, something that’s not marketed for the masses.
You’re also paying for top quality materials and design. A lot goes into making each piece perfect so you know that everything that’s in their little blue box is made to the upmost top standards. Tiffany collaborates with some of the most sought after designers in the world. That’s what helps make their jewelry so desired.
Can I Still Find a Bargain on Tiffany Jewelry?
There’s really just two ways to save on Tiffany jewelry. One way is buying used. If you do a quick Google search then you’ll find may different third party site selling used Tiffany pieces. But that’s risky as you can easily end up with a counterfeit product or something that’s been abused by the previous owner. I wouldn’t recommend going down this route.
You’re second option is go with silver as opposed to gold or platinum. Tiffany offers many of their best sellers in several different materials and the difference in price is often substantial. For example, the Heart Tag Bracelet seen below costs $3700 in 18k gold but $335 when finished in silver. That’s more than a 10x difference in price!
Another thing to be aware of at Tiffany is their upgrade policy. Certain Tiffany engagement rings and other jewelry can be returned back to the store and you’ll be given credit equal to your original purchase price that you can use towards another piece of jewelry. So lets say you can’t afford that perfect engagement ring today, you can buy something that’s less expensive today and just exchange it for something nicer a few years down the road. Be sure to talk to a store representative for offer details and terms.
Prices Are On The Rise
Year after year, we’ve noticed that prices are on the rise. The changes may be subtle but are definitely there. Back on May 18th last year Eric, one of the members of our team here at Blacker Friday, purchased the Tiffany Soleste ring and an engagement ring for his then fiancé (they are now happily married!). Back then the ring, which is finished in platinum with a .70-carat aquamarine and diamonds, cost $5800 (on May 15, 2018). Then when we checked on December 5, 2019, the exact same ring cost $6000. As of December 17, 2020 the price was $6400, and as of December 25, 2023 the price is $8500.
So even though you are paying full price today, in a few years from now it’s quite possible that whatever you purchase will look like a bargain.
