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.

Kay Jewelers Cyber Monday 2025 Sale – The Event is Live!

November 21, 2025 BlackerFriday.com Leave a comment

Updated on Friday, November 21, 2025: KAY Jewelers isn’t launching a separate Cyber Monday event this year. Instead, Cyber Monday will serve as the final day of their extended Black Friday promotion (and it’s now live!). Here’s everything you need to know.

Kay Jewelers’ Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates & Offers

The event runs online at kay.com and in stores from now through Monday, December 1, 2025, at 11:59 PM ET. This year you get up to 40% off storewide and sitewide, plus an extra 5% off purchases of $999 or more.

How the Extra 5% Off Works

The extra 5% off applies automatically at checkout when your purchase reaches $999, making it a simple way to maximize savings. All discounts are applied to the ticketed price, which means you’re saving from the original cost rather than from a previous sale price. While the promotion is broad, certain exclusions apply (see below).

Popular Picks to Consider

During Black Friday, some of Kay’s most popular items often see significant discounts, including:

Engagement Rings: Lab-created diamond solitaires and halo styles, including pieces from the Now & Forever collection, remain customer favorites.
Necklaces and Earrings: Classic gold and sterling silver pieces, such as lab-created diamond studs or pearl pendants, frequently top best-seller lists.
Bracelets: Timeless chains, bangles, and charm styles that combine elegance with everyday wearability are strong picks for holiday gifting.

These best-sellers often move quickly during Black Friday, so early browsing can help secure the pieces you want.

What’s Excluded

As with most large-scale promotions, several categories are not included:

Designer watches (Armani Exchange, Emporio Armani, Bulova Frank Sinatra, Bulova Marc Anthony, Bulova Archive Series, Casio, Coach, Fossil, Hamilton, Hugo Boss, Kate Spade, Lacoste, Mido, Movado, Skagen, Tissot, and select JBW watches)
Smartwatches and watchbands
Loose diamonds and gemstones
Teddy Bear Jewelry Collection honoring St. Jude®
Le Vian® Vault online collection
KAY Signature, Rocksbox, clearance, closeouts, previously owned items
Ear piercing merchandise
Black Friday Deals, specially priced merchandise, special events, custom design jewelry, jewelry cleaning items, charity items, protection plans, repairs and services, gift cards, and previous purchases

The extra 5% off is combinable with the up-to-40%-off promotion, but not with other coupons. Minimum purchase amounts do not include taxes or shipping.

KAY Jewelers Black Friday 2025 Sale – The Deals Are Live!

November 21, 2025 BlackerFriday.com 1 Comment

Updated on Friday, November 21, 2025: Kay Jewelers’ 2025 Black Friday sale officially kicked off today! We’ve broken everything down to help you know what to expect, what deals are worth targeting, and what exclusions to keep in mind.

Black Friday 2025 Start & End Dates

Kay’s Black Friday sale runs online and in stores from now through Monday, December 1, 2025, at 11:59 PM ET, both in-stores and at kay.com.

Discount Levels to Expect

This year, the main offer includes up to 40% off storewide and sitewide, plus an extra 5% off when you spend $999 or more. The extra 5% off is applied automatically in the cart online once the purchase threshold is met.

Important details about the offer:

Excludes Armani Exchange, Emporio Armani, Bulova Frank Sinatra, Bulova Marc Anthony, Bulova Archive Series, Casio, Coach, Fossil, Hamilton, Hugo Boss, Kate Spade, Lacoste, Mido, Movado, Skagen, Tissot, and select JBW watches
Excludes smartwatches, watchbands, loose diamonds and gemstones, Teddy Bear Jewelry Collection honoring St. Jude®, Le Vian® Vault online collection, KAY Signature, Rocksbox, clearance, closeouts, previously owned merchandise, ear piercing merchandise, Black Friday Deals, specially priced merchandise, special events, custom design jewelry, jewelry cleaning items, charity items, protection plans, repairs and services, gift cards, and previous purchases
Promotions, prices, styles, and availability may vary by store and online
The extra 5% off is combinable with the up-to-40%-off promotion, but not combinable with any other coupons
Minimum purchase amounts do not include taxes or shipping

The sale is officially valid through Monday, December 1, 2025 (that’s on Cyber Monday), giving you more than a week to take advantage of deals online and in-store.

Items Likely to Be Excluded

Kay’s exclusions list is long and remains similar to previous years. Key items excluded from the Black Friday 2025 promotion include:

Designer watches and certain watch brands
Smartwatches and watchbands
Loose diamonds and gemstones
Le Vian Vault collection
KAY Signature, Rocksbox, and clearance/closeout items
Teddy Bear Jewelry Collection honoring St. Jude®
Custom design jewelry, jewelry cleaning items, charity items, protection plans, repairs and services, and gift cards
Special events, specially priced merchandise, and certain new arrivals

Kay usually marks which items qualify for the discount online, so it’s important to double-check before checking out.

Online vs. In-Store Shopping

Kay offers the bulk of its Black Friday promotions both online and in stores. Online shoppers generally have access to more inventory, particularly for specialized pieces like personalized jewelry or specific collections.

The extra 5% off $999+ offer is available online and in-store, but online shoppers will see it automatically applied in the cart once the threshold is reached. Standard and expedited shipping options are included in free shipping promotions, though certain shipping types like APO/FPO may have limitations.

Extended Holiday Returns

Another perk that Kay usually brings back during Black Friday is extended holiday returns. If they follow the same approach this year, expect the return window to extend through late January 2026.

This is helpful if you’re buying gifts ahead of time or aren’t quite sure if the item will be a perfect fit. Just make sure the jewelry is kept in new condition and within the return period.

Cyber Monday: Final Round of Deals

Cyber Monday will likely close out the Black Friday event, and it usually features a repeat of the Thanksgiving Day Flash Deal. In 2024, Kay offered an extra $50 off purchases of $300 or more, online only, and that discount could be stacked with the existing percentage-off promotions for some items.

Clarks Black Friday 2025 Sale – The Deals Are Live!

November 21, 2025 BlackerFriday.com Leave a comment

Updated on Friday, November 21, 2025: Clarks’ Black Friday sale kicked off today and the brand is going bigger than usual with up to 60% off select styles—a rare deep discount for Clarks fans.

Black Friday 2025 Sale Start & End Dates

Clarks’ Black Friday Sale for 2025 is now live and runs through Friday, November 28, 2025.

You can shop the event online at Clarks.com. The promotion is valid online only. If you were planning to shop in stores, note that this year’s discount details are exclusively for online purchases.

How to Get the Discount

Discount: Up to 60% off select styles
Promo Code: Enter STEALS at checkout
Exclusions: Cannot be combined with other discounts, coupons, or applied to taxes, shipping, prior purchases, gift cards, or cash/cash equivalents

What to Expect

Unlike previous years’ 40% storewide sales, this year Clarks is offering steeper discounts on select items, which may include popular boots, sneakers, and casual shoes. The sale won’t cover everything in the catalog, so you’ll want to check product listings carefully to see which styles qualify for up to 60% off.

Because the sale is online-only and stock is limited, popular sizes and styles may sell out quickly. Make sure to add your favorites to your cart early to avoid missing out.

Things to Keep in Mind

Limited Quantities: Once a style or size is sold out, it’s gone.
No Combined Discounts: You cannot stack this promo with other offers.
Exclusions Apply: Taxes, shipping, gift cards, and prior purchases are not eligible.
Returns: Sale items are generally returnable, but check Clarks’ policy for specifics during the promotion period.
