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.

Lowe’s Black Friday 2025 Sale – The Ad is Posted!

2 Comments

Updated on Tuesday, November 25, 2025: If you’ve ever shopped a Lowe’s Black Friday before, you’ll know they don’t just run a single-day sale. Instead, they roll out early deals in waves throughout November (now live!), ending with their biggest offers during the Thanksgiving weekend. Here’s a breakdown of what’s what’s coming and when.

When Lowe’s Black Friday 2025 Sale Will Happen

Just like in past years, Lowe’s rolls out early Black Friday deals in separate rounds before the main event (that’s similar to what you’ll also see at The Home Depot).

Here’s a look at the expected timeline:

  • Early Deals – Round 1: Thursday, November 6 to Wednesday, November 19, 2025.
  • Early Deals – Round 2: Thursday, November 20 to Wednesday, November 26, 2025.
  • Main Black Friday Sale (Online): Thursday, November 27, 2025 (that’s on Thanksgiving Day), exclusively at lowes.com.
  • Main Black Friday Sale (In Stores): Friday, November 28, 2025.
  • Sale Ends: Likely on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, or while supplies last.

Lowe’s stores will remain closed on Thanksgiving Day, which has been the case in recent years.  If you’re heading into a store on Black Friday itself, expect them to open at 6:00 AM local time, though that could vary slightly by location.

This Year’s Discount Levels

The discount levels at Lowe’s during Black Friday are pretty consistent from year to year. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect this year:

  • Major appliances: up to 40% off, with additional savings for buying sets
  • Power tools: 25% to 50% off on select brands like DEWALT, Craftsman, and Bosch
  • Holiday decorations: 20% to 50% off, including pre-lit artificial trees and LED lights
  • Smart home items: around 20% to 40% off (brands like Google Nest, Ring, and Honeywell)
  • Small kitchen appliances: 15% to 30% off
  • Garage and storage items: 25% to 50% off depending on brand and type

Some of the biggest discounts show up on appliance packages or tool bundles. Buying a washer and dryer set, for example, can sometimes save you an extra $200 to $500 compared to buying separately. Similarly, combo tool kits with drills, batteries, and bags often come with bonus items or steep markdowns.
