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, ending with their biggest offers during the Thanksgiving weekend. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect this year: when the sale will likely start, what kinds of items will be discounted, how deep the discounts usually go, and which offers might only be in-store.
When Lowe’s Black Friday 2025 Sale Will Happen
Just like in past years, Lowe’s is expected to roll out early Black Friday deals in two 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, October 30 to Wednesday, November 12, 2025.
-
Early Deals – Round 2: Thursday, November 13 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.
How the Sale Rolls Out: Online and In-Store Differences
If you want to shop the biggest doorbusters, you’ll probably need to head to a store on Black Friday morning. While many of Lowe’s best deals will be available both online and in-store, some offers will be exclusive to physical locations. This includes limited-quantity items like doorbuster power tools, certain live plants, and possibly holiday bundles.
For example, in past years, Lowe’s gave out a free 5-gallon Lowe’s-branded bucket to the first 25 customers who showed up at each location on Black Friday. The buckets were filled with up to $150 worth of items, which included things like small tools, cleaning products, gloves, and more. This perk was exclusive to MyLowe’s Rewards Members, so signing up ahead of time could be worth it if they repeat the offer.
If you’re shopping at lowes.com, expect the sale to go live in the early hours of Thanksgiving Day. It’s worth bookmarking the homepage or checking the app around midnight Eastern Time, though exact launch times may vary.
Expected Discount Levels
The discount levels at Lowe’s during Black Friday are pretty consistent from year to year. Here’s a breakdown based on previous sales:
-
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.
