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. If you would like to connect with me you can do so on my Linkedin page, on our site’s Facebook page, or write me an email. Thanks for checking us out and I look forward to hearing from you!

Lucky Brand’s Black Friday 2025 Ad & Official Terms
Expected Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates
Lucky Brand’s 2025 Black Friday Sale is expected to start on Tuesday, November 25, 2025. That’s two days before Thanksgiving, and three days before the official Black Friday date (which is November 28 this year). That early start isn’t unusual. Over the last few years, Lucky Brand has consistently kicked off its Black Friday sales a few days before Thanksgiving, giving you more time to browse and buy.
The sale is expected to run until 11:59 AM Pacific Time on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, unless items sell out sooner. That means there’s about a week to shop.
Where Can You Shop the Event?
You’ll be able to shop the sale in-store at Lucky Brand’s Specialty Retail locations and online at . Just don’t expect to see the same deals if you shop at a Lucky Brand Outlet store. The same offer doesn’t typically apply there.
How Big Are the Discounts?
This year’s Lucky Brand Black Friday Sale is expected to offer up to 40% off on nearly everything in stock, both online and in-store. “Nearly everything” is the key phrase here. While a large portion of their inventory will be included in the sale, there are always some exclusions (more on that below).
The 40% off doesn’t usually apply to everything equally. Some items might be discounted by 20% or 30%, while others hit the full 40% off. It depends on the product category, popularity, and stock levels.
What Might Be Excluded?
Every year, there are some products that don’t qualify for the Black Friday offer. Based on previous sales, these are the usual categories that tend to be excluded:
Items labeled “Discounts Do Not Apply” on the website
Products tagged “Excluded From Promotions” in-store
Certain collaborations or limited-edition styles
Items that are already marked down on clearance
Gift cards
Some higher-end leather goods or specialty accessories
If you’re shopping online, the site usually makes it pretty clear which items are excluded. Look for small print under the price or a label near the product image. In-store, staff can usually tell you if something’s not part of the deal.
What Were Some Specific Sale Examples from Last Year?
To get a clearer idea of what might be on sale this year, it helps to look at some real examples from Black Friday 2024. These are items that were discounted during last year’s sale and give you a good sense of what to expect this time around:
In general, the bigger the original price, the bigger the savings. Denim, jackets, and boots tend to give you the most value during the sale. Tees and tops are also discounted but don’t always hit the full 40%.
