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

4 Comments

If you’ve been eyeing something for your home or want to prep early for the holidays, Crate & Barrel’s Black Friday sale is definitely worth keeping on your radar. Here’s everything you need to know based on what’s happened in past years, what’s been announced so far, and what’s likely for 2025.

When the Sale Starts and Ends

Crate & Barrel usually sticks to a pretty consistent Black Friday schedule, and 2025 seems to be no different. You can expect the sale to begin on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, both in stores and online. That’s the day before Thanksgiving.

All stores across the U.S. will close for the full day on Thanksgiving itself (Thursday, November 27). So if you’re planning to shop in person, don’t bother heading out then—doors will be locked.

The sale typically continues through Black Friday weekend and wraps up on Cyber Monday, December 1, 2025. That gives you about five full days to shop, whether you’re browsing in person or clicking through online deals from your couch.

Where You Can Shop

The Black Friday sale will be available both online and in-store, which is pretty standard for Crate & Barrel. If you want to avoid crowds, online shopping is the way to go, especially since most of the same deals will be available on the website. Plus, online shoppers who spend $49 or more get free shipping on thousands of items, which adds up fast if you’re buying more than just a few things.

Keep in mind, though, that not everything qualifies for free shipping. You’ll want to look out for items marked with a “Free Shipping Eligible” tag. That’s the clearest way to know if you’ll be skipping shipping fees.

What Kind of Discounts to Expect

First thing to know: this is not a store-wide, everything-must-go type of sale. Crate & Barrel usually keeps it pretty focused. You’ll likely see up to 50% off on select sale and clearance items. That could include furniture, kitchenware, bedding, and even lighting—just depends on what’s getting rotated out or heavily stocked.

Here’s a quick breakdown of what’s usually included:

  • Up to 50% off on select furniture and home decor

  • 20% off holiday decorations, including ornaments, garlands, tree skirts, and more

  • Deals on kitchen essentials like cookware, glassware, and cutlery

  • Some sales on bedding and bath items

  • A decent chunk of clearance merchandise also gets discounted further

And yes, Cyber Monday tends to just carry on the same sale—not a totally separate set of deals like some stores offer. Sometimes there are a few online exclusives on Monday, but for Crate & Barrel, it’s more about extending the same offers and nudging people who waited until the last minute.

What Was on Sale Last Year (So You Know What Might Be This Year)

If you’re the type to base your shopping strategy on what’s gone on sale in previous years, here are a few examples of items that were discounted last Black Friday. These give a good idea of what you might see again in 2025:

  • Furniture:

    • The Gather Deep Leather Sofa was marked down by about 25%, dropping the price from over $3,000 to just above $2,200.

    • The Edge Drum Coffee Table was discounted around 30%, going from $699 to around $489.

  • Kitchenware:

    • The Le Creuset Signature Dutch Oven (5.5-quart) saw about a $100 discount, coming in at 20% off.

    • Crate & Barrel’s exclusive marble cheese boards were 30% off, which made them around $27 instead of $39.

  • Dining & Entertaining:

    • Their popular Tour Wine Glasses (set of 8) dropped to around $45, a 25% savings.

    • Seasonal serveware, like acacia wood appetizer trays and holiday-themed plates, were up to 40% off.

  • Holiday Decor:

    • Many artificial Christmas trees were 20% off.

    • Glass ornaments and tree toppers were also marked down, often 15-25% depending on the item.

    • Festive throws and cushions with wintery themes were usually 20-30% off.

  • Lighting:

    • Some pendant lights and sconces were 40% off, especially models from the previous season or limited-run collaborations.

  • Clearance Finds:

    • Clearance items, particularly in the kitchen and soft goods categories, often had stacked discounts—already marked down plus an extra 20-30% off during Black Friday weekend.

These kinds of markdowns aren’t guaranteed this year, but Crate & Barrel has a pattern of repeating its biggest hits and slowly phasing out seasonal or lower-performing inventory. If something similar shows up again, it wouldn’t be a surprise.
