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

Known for its deep discounts on everything from apparel to home essentials, Belk’s Black Friday Sale always brings plenty of opportunities to save across a wide range of categories. Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming event, what to expect, when to shop, and the kinds of deals that will likely be available.


When Does the Sale Start?

Belk’s Black Friday Sale is expected to begin on Friday, November 21, 2025, which is a full week before Black Friday itself. The sale will likely run through Saturday, November 29, 2025. The official Black Friday ad is anticipated to drop around Wednesday, November 6, 2025. Last year’s ad was 28 pages long.

One important thing to note: all Belk stores will be closed on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, November 27, 2025), continuing a trend among many major retailers in recent years.


What Kind of Deals Can You Expect?

Belk has always been known for its wide-ranging Black Friday deals, and 2025 will likely be no different. Last year, the sale featured discounts of up to 80% off select items, and we expect similar markdowns this year. Here’s a breakdown of some of the categories where you’re most likely to find deals:

1. Apparel and Shoes

Clothing and footwear for the whole family are always a major highlight of Belk’s Black Friday Sale. Whether you’re shopping for cozy winter sweaters, formalwear, or casual staples, you’ll find deep discounts on a variety of styles.

  • Men’s, women’s, and kids’ clothing: Look out for markdowns of 50–80% off.
  • Shoes: Deals often include name-brand sneakers, boots, and dress shoes at some of the lowest prices of the year.

2. Fragrances and Cosmetics

Belk’s beauty section is another area to watch during Black Friday. Many popular designer fragrances and beauty gift sets are typically included in the sale, making it an excellent time to stock up or shop for holiday gifts.

3. Jewelry and Accessories

Expect to see significant discounts on fine jewelry, watches, and fashion accessories. Belk often features jewelry deals as doorbusters, so you might want to check the ad early to prioritize these items.

4. Kitchen Essentials and Small Appliances

For anyone looking to upgrade their kitchen, Belk’s Black Friday Sale is a great time to save on cookware, small appliances, and kitchen gadgets. Look for discounts on brands like Cuisinart, Ninja, and Hamilton Beach.

5. Bedding and Home Decor

Home goods are another area where Belk shines during Black Friday. Deals often include:

  • Comforter sets, sheets, and pillows at up to 70% off.
  • Holiday-themed home decor at steep discounts, perfect for getting your house ready for the season.

6. Doorbusters and In-Store Exclusives

Belk is known for offering limited-time doorbuster deals, some of which are exclusive to in-store shoppers. Last year, for example, they featured an in-store-only coupon to encourage customers to visit their brick-and-mortar locations (this was highlighted on page 4 of the ad). These types of offers are likely to return this year, so if you’re able to visit a store, it’s worth checking the ad for any in-store exclusives.

When Does the Sale Begin?

This year, Bed Bath & Beyond’s Black Friday Sale is expected to officially kick off on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 27, 2025. However, it’s important to note that the store typically starts rolling out pre-Black Friday deals about a week before the main event.

BEBE Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

Whether you’re eyeing something from their signature collection or hunting for bargains in their clearance section, Bebe’s upcoming Black Friday sale is likely to deliver a mix of discounts across both full-priced and sale-priced items. Here’s everything you can expect, from sale dates to likely offers and tips to make the most of it.


Expected Sale Dates and Timing

We’re expecting Bebe’s Black Friday sale to kick off on Monday, November 24, 2025 (that’s 3 days before Thanksgiving). If past years are any indication, this will likely be an online-exclusive event, with no in-store participation. The sale is anticipated to run through Saturday, November 29, 2025, wrapping up at 11:59 PM PT.


Discounts to Expect

In 2024, Bebe offered a 40% discount on nearly all full-priced and sale-priced items using the promo code BEBEBF40. We’re expecting a similar offer this year, though the promo code will likely change.

In addition to the storewide discount, last year’s clearance section offered savings of up to 80% off. For those looking to score the steepest discounts, this is where you’ll want to start browsing. However, clearance items tend to sell out quickly, especially during Black Friday, so plan to shop early if you’re aiming for these deeper markdowns.

Bebe typically offers free shipping for orders over a certain amount during Black Friday. Last year, the threshold was $150 for free shipping anywhere in the continental United States.


Exclusions and Restrictions

As with most Black Friday promotions, there are some exclusions to keep in mind. In 2024, the Swarovski collection and select other items were excluded from the sale. While the exact exclusions for 2025 haven’t been announced yet, it’s likely that similar restrictions will apply.

Additionally, the discount cannot be applied to gift cards or previous purchases. So if you’ve recently bought something from Bebe, unfortunately, you won’t be able to retroactively apply the Black Friday discount to your order.

It’s also worth noting that Bebe’s Black Friday offer may not be combined with other discounts or promotional codes. That means you won’t be able to stack discounts for extra savings, so it’s important to focus on the main Black Friday promotion to maximize your savings.


What to Buy

Here are a few categories to consider shopping during the sale:

  1. Dresses: Whether you’re looking for a sleek cocktail dress or something more casual, Bebe’s collection often includes versatile options for every occasion.
  2. Outerwear: From tailored blazers to stylish coats, this is the perfect time to invest in high-quality outerwear for the colder months.
  3. Accessories: Bebe’s accessories, including handbags, jewelry, and belts, can add a touch of glam to any outfit.
  4. Activewear: If you’re into stylish yet functional activewear, Bebe often includes discounted options in this category during their Black Friday sale.
  5. Clearance Finds: As mentioned earlier, the clearance section is where you’ll find the steepest discounts. While sizes and availability may be limited, it’s worth taking the time to see if you can score a major bargain.
