Best early Black Friday deals 2024 — here’s the sales I’d actually recommend to friends and family

With the holidays coming up, chances are you’ll need all the help in the kitchen you can get. Fortunately, KitchenAid mixers are among the best stand mixers we’ve tested — and they come with loads of helpful cooking attachments, which just so happen to be on sale right now. KitchenAid mixing attachments are up to 50% off at Amazon right now. We’re talking fresh pasta makers, veggie spiralizers, food processors and more handy tools that simply attach to your KitchenAid standing mixer.

iPad (10th gen) down to lowest price

If you’re not sure which iPad to go for, let me save you some trouble: pick up the 10th generation basic iPad and don’t lose any sleep over the decision.

Right now that iPad is available for $299 at Amazon. That’s $150 off the regular price, and brings Apple’s entry-level tablet down to its lowest ever price! But just because it’s the basic iPad, doesn’t make it a slouch. It has an iPad Air-like design with slim bezels and Touch ID-enabled power button. There’s USB-C charging, support for the Apple Pencil (USB-C) and a landscape-orientated front-facing camera.

Pixel perfect deal

We spend a lot of time at Tom’s Guide covering the best phones you can buy right now so it’s always gratifying when we see a Black Friday deal like this arrive.

Right now, you can get Google’s very latest Pixel 9 smartphone with a $150 discount down to $549 @ Best Buy. One of our biggest disappointments with this phone was the $100 price hike — which this deal nullifies with interest. It might be somewhat overshadowed by the Pixel 9 Pro, but the standard Pixel 9 is still an excellent Android device for those who don’t need pro performance.

Fitbit trackers at their lowest price

Fitbit Charge 6 and Inspire 3 deals

I’ve been using Fitbit devices (off and on) for over a decade now, and I know I’m far from alone. These fitness trackers are functional and supremely easy to use to improve your health. Which is why it’s sad to see Google slowly winding down the Fitbit brand.

That may be why two of the brand’s best fitness trackers are down to their lowest price in this early Black Friday sale. Over at Amazon right now, the Fitbit Charge 6 is available for $99 and the Fitbit Inspire 3 is going for $69. These two deals are a great way to get a kickstart on your fitness goals without spending big — just beware that Fitbit’s days may be numbered.

Fitbit Charge 6: was $159 now $99 @ Amazon

Fitbit Inspire 3: was $99 now $69 @ Amazon

I love this deal on portable power

Anker MagGo charger

Here’s a deal I can comfortably recommend because I use this product almost every time I leave the house. Right now, the Anker MagGo Power Bank (10K) is down from $89 to just $59 at Amazon.

If you’ve not used one of these devices before, it offers on-the-go charging via MagSafe with any compatible iPhone — plus a very useful kickstand on the back. This means you can use StandBy Mode at the same time. The cherry on top for me is the tiny display on the side that lets you know how much power you have remaining.

Note, this is also currently reduced to $59 at Walmart

Score! Mac mini M4 now on sale….

Here it is! The first Mac mini M4 deal is now live at Best Buy. There is a small catch though. The deal is for paying My Best Buy members only. (Plans/tiers start at $49/year at Best Buy). However, it’s worth the price of admission if you’re an Apple fan as Best Buy is one of my go-to retailers for Apple deals. Right now members can get the Editor’s Choice Mac mini M4 for $549. That’s $50 off and the first (and only) significant deal we’ve seen for Apple’s new Mac, which comes out November 8. (By comparison, Amazon has it for $579). In our Mac mini M4 review we said even the base model is an absolute powerhouse.

Mac mini M4: was $599 now $549 @ Best Buy

Black Friday board games

I am not a regular board gamer — but it turns out my colleague Scott is a big fan. He’s taken the liberty of rounding up some of the best Black Friday board game deals you can currently buy and I wanted to pass on a couple of his suggestions.

While I haven’t played either of these games myself, I’m a big fan of their respective franchises. So the fact that Star Wars: The Deck Building Game is now just $16 (down from $38) and Jurassic World: The Legacy of Isla Nublar gets a massive discount down from $120 to $59 is making me curious to try them out.

Star Wars: The Deckbuilding Game: was $38 now $17 @ Amazon

Sandisk SSD in hand.

(Image credit: Future)

Need a little extra storage for your files? Of course you do — everyone does! SanDisk’s Extreme Portable SSD is a TG favorite and I’m always quick to recommend it when people ask which storage solution to go for. This product is ridiculously small, rugged and very fast.

More importantly, it’s just been given a healthy 22% price cut at Amazon which knocks it down to $155. One caveat: this isn’t the cheapest we’ve seen this product fall to, and deals like these are a staple of Black Friday. So I’ll be keeping a close eye out to see if any of our best external hard drives get a further discount treatment. Stay tuned!

SanDisk 2TB Extreme Portable SSD: was $199 now $155 @ Amazon

Sketchers sale at Amazon!

Amazon is putting its best foot forward with Black Friday deals right now courtesy of some great sales on Sketchers shoes.

Right now you can grab the Skechers Men’s B Flex Elevated Edge Slip-Ins on sale from $24 at Amazon. Originally priced at $69, these slip-on sneakers have seen huge price drops in certain sizes and colors.

You can find a complete rundown of the best 15 Sketchers deals we’ve found right here.

Epic PlayStation discounts

PlayStation is having a moment right now thanks to the arrival of the PS5 Pro and even if you’re not planning to upgrade yourself, now’s the best time to increase your game collection.

Why? Because Sony has just launched its early Black Friday sale that drops PS5 games down to as little as $2! And, not to be outdone, Amazon is dropping the price on a bunch of physical PS5 discs for Black Friday, too. Here’s three that I’ll be adding to my cart to keep me entertained over the holidays….

OLED all the way

LG G3 OLED TV showing Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part I

(Image credit: Future)

If you’re on the hunt to upgrade your TV to an OLED model this Black Friday, then you’ll want to take note of this great deal on the LG C3 OLED. Right now, Amazon is selling the set with a still has a few sets on sale for Black Friday at a solid 29% discount.

That brings the price down to under $2,000 for this 65-inch TV that’s been one of the best OLED TVs on the market over the last year. You’re getting stellar brights, inky blacks and incredible contrast ratios. It’s hard to fault it at this price.

65″ LG C3 OLED TV: was $2,796, now $1,996 @ Amazon

AirPods Pro 2 at the lowest price

One of the very best accessories you can give your iPhone is a pair of Apple’s wireless earbuds. The AirPods pair seamlessly with your iOS device, offer impressive sound quality and a competitive battery life. The only drawback is they’re a bit costly.

The good news is that in the lead up to Black Friday, both Amazon and Best Buy have discounts on AirPods models. Our pick is the AirPods Pro 2 back down to their lowest price of $169 at Best Buy.

But you can also pick up the AirPods Max for $100 off at Amazon right now.

XPS 15 deal

(Image credit: Future)

A few years ago, it was common to see the XPS 13 sell for $999 during Black Friday. Well, times have changed and these days it’s the XPS 15 that’s selling for $999. The configuration on sale features a 15.6-inch 1920 x 1200 LCD, Core i7-13620H CPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. Those are pretty respectable specs for this price point and it’s an overall great deal for someone who wants a powerful laptop that also looks good.

There are a ton of Black Friday laptop deals happening right now. In fact, there are so many that my colleague — and managing editor of computing — Jason England just launched a live blog covering all of the best early deals. Some noteworthy highlights include discounts on the new M4 MacBook Pro, $500 off one of our favorite Copilot+ PCs, and more. Check out all the latest sales via the link below.

Avoid online scams this holiday…

A lot of us will be making online purchases in the next few weeks. However, a new study shows that there’s been an increase in the number of consumers who are visiting fake online shops. Cybercriminals are using AI and other tools to create these fake online shops and scam people. One way they trick shoppers is by subtly changing the website domain name you’re visiting. Tom’s Guide staff writer George Phillips has a few tips shoppers can follow to avoid falling for any scams this holiday season.

Avoid Black Friday scams

Lego deals

G’morning, all! Deals editor Louis here reporting from a balmy NYC this morning. It appears a new batch of Black Friday deals went live overnight and I’m seeing a lot of new good sales this morning. One of today’s biggest sales involves Lego sets. They’ve been discounted to as little as $19 at Amazon. Deals editor Millie Davis-Williams has rounded up all of the best Black Friday Lego deals you can get right now.

This deal sucks…in a good way

iRobot Roomba

(Image credit: iRobot)

You know what sucks? Vacuuming. So why waste your previous time on it when you can get a robot to do it for you. Amazon is currently offering the iRobot Roomba Vac Robot for just $149 right now.

That’s a 40% discount on a machine from the brand that dominates our best robot vacuums guide. This model has a 3-stage cleaning system offering three power levels, letting you choose between quieter operation or more powerful suction. Meanwhile, the smart navigation system moves in methodical rows while built-in sensors help it dodge around furniture and avoid stairs.

A solid dehumidifier deal

Honeywell 50 Pint Dehumidifier

(Image credit: Future)

The Honeywell 50-pint dehumidifier is currently dominating our best dehumidifiers guide — and we’ve just spotted it’s been discounted ahead of Black Friday. Amazon has knocked $90 off the price, dropping it to $299 from $389.

What sets this model apart is its practical design features. The water tank, though relatively small, is easy to empty — and for continuous operation, you can simply attach the included drain hose. The unit also offers smart connectivity through an app that’s intuitive to use.

A dehumidifier might not be the sexiest product you pick up this Black Friday, but it’s probably one of the most useful.

Who needs the theater??

Hisense U6N TV

Going to the theater is fun, but it can get expensive and time consuming when there’s so much good stuff on the best streaming services right now anyway. If you want my advice, opt for the biggest and best TV you can find, invite a few buddies round for movie night and tell them to bring their own popcorn.

If you’re looking to go large with your TV set, Hisense is the brand to beat when it comes to affordability. Right now, you can get the 85-inch Hisense U6N Mini-LED TV for under a thousand bucks at Amazon. This is a big step-up from regular LED and if you pair it with one of the best soundbars, you’ll be able to start charging those friends admission prices…

We need coffee…

Ninja CE251

(Image credit: Future)

It’s first thing in the morning and you’re probably in need of a damn good cup of coffee to digest the results of yesterday’s election. The good news is Amazon currently has a Ninja coffee machine we can personally recommend with $10 off ahead of Black Friday.

The Ninja CE251 Coffee Maker has been Louis’ go-to machine for well over a year (he took the image above) and he confirms it’s compact, makes a solid cup of joe and is super affordable. You can read more about why he likes it in his Ninja CE251 hands-on here, but for now be advised that because of the low price, it doesn’t often go on sale.

Last Black Friday we saw it dip down further in price, but this is still a solid discount to take advantage of if you need your caffeine hit right away.

Ninja 12-Cup Coffee Maker: was $79 now $69 @ Amazon

MSI Katana A15 AI

Here’s a sweet deal for any cash-strapped PC gamers. Walmart has the MSI Katana on sale for just $799. It’s a great deal for any casual gamers who may be looking for a new machine. It features a 15.6-inch 1080p 144Hz LCD, Core i7-13620H CPU, 16GB of RAM, 1TB SSD, and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 GPU. By comparison, Amazon has the same machine listed for $930 and it’s sold via a third party merchant.

Uplift desk shown in bedroom

I love my Uplift desk. Not only has it completely changed the way I work, but it’s the best home office investment I’ve made. Right now Uplift is offering 5 free accessories when you purchase an Uplift desk via coupon code “HOLIDAYS”. The freebies include a wire management tray, back cable tie mounts, frame anchor plates, Uplift Koozie (to keep your drinks cool), and an Uplift jar opener. The jar openers is a bit of a head scratcher, but this I will say — the Uplift V2 is the desk I own and fully recommend. Plus, you get a 15-year warranty on all of Uplift’s desks.

Uplift desk sale: up to $600 off @ Uplift

Iniu 10000mAh portable charger

(Image credit: Amazon)

I recently came back from a 7-night cruise to Halifax and one of the devices I used the most when traveling was my portable charger. If you’re in the market for a new one, the Iniu 10000mAh is the best portable charger we’ve reviewed at Tom’s Guide. While this isn’t the cheapest price I’ve ever seen it go for, it’s still a steal at $17 and just $3 shy of an all-time price low.

Iniu Portable Charge: was $29 now $17 @ Amazon

Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress

(Image credit: Tom’s Guide)

Mattresses don’t get enough attention on Black Friday. And they should because Black Friday mattress deals can save you hundreds on beds featured in our best mattress guide. For example, right now the Helix Midnight Luxe is on sale. It’s one of our highest rated hybrid mattresses, thanks to its incredible build quality and pressure relief for side sleepers (which is why it also tops our best mattress for side sleepers guide). In our Helix Midnight Luxe mattress review, we were impressed with the pressure relief across the shoulders, hips and knees when sleeping on your side. It’s an excellent buy and Tom’s Guide sleep editor Nicola Appleton gives you all the reasons you should buy it.

Deals editor Olivia Halevy has rounded up the best Black Friday iRobot deals you can get right now. Not sure where to start? Make sure to check out our guide to the best Roombas of 2024.

Need to upgrade your phone? Tom’s Guide senior phones editor John Velasco has picked out all of the best smartphone deals you can shop right now. His list includes sweet discounts on everything from the iPhone 16 to the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Remember, there are two types of phone deals you can generally get: Discounts on unlocked phones and carrier discounts. It all depends on the type of deal you’re most comfortable with and whether you want to be tied down to a carrier or not.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — November is an excellent month to buy just about anything. It’s particularly great if you have a high-priced item you want to buy. For example, if you’ve been eyeing a new pair of headphones or earbuds, Amazon has multiple Bose ‘phones on sale right now. It’s one of the biggest Bose discounts I’ve seen. Check out the full sale via the link or some of my personal picks below.

Bose sale: deals from $199 @ Amazon

Cosori Air Fryer 9-in-1

(Image credit: Amazon)

Cosori makes some of the best air fryers we’ve tested. We like them because their kitchen appliances can really hold their own against the likes of Ninja and Cuisinart, thanks to their user-friendly, tactile designs. We’ve also found that Cosori appliances are great for beginners, since they’re so intuitive and easy to use. Right now Amazon has the Cosori 9-in-1 air fryer on sale for $89, which is just $2 shy of its all-time price low. The machine can air fry, roast, bake, broil, dehydrate, and more. It’s a great alternative for an over or microwave.

Happy Election Day, everyone! Deals editor Louis here taking over for my colleague Jeff. It’s looking to be a busy Tuesday, so let’s jump right into the deals.

If you know someone who spends a lot of time on their hair every morning, Tom’s Guide tutorial editor Kaycee Hill has found the 7 best styling tools on sale from $69. Her list includes hair stylers, rollers, brushes, and more.

Game time!

MSI Thin gaming laptop

Although the big-name retailers like Amazon and Walmart have plenty of decent Black Friday deals to shop right now, they’re not the only ones.

Right now, the MSI Thin packing RTX 4060 is just $979 at Newegg — a huge $220 saving that’s got my colleague Jason England very excited. He claims it’s “easily one of the best gaming laptop deals I’ve seen” because that RTX 4060 GPU is supported a Ryzen 9 chipset — which you don’t usually get at this price.

If your plans for the remainder of 2024 include enjoying some of the best Steam games, this is a deal you should take note of.

The best blender just got even cheaper

Breville The Super Q Blender

What did you have for breakfast this morning? If you’re currently training for a run, hike, cycle or strength and conditioning routine, a smoothie could be the way to go. Enjoying a smoothie each morning is a great way to feel satiated and increased your protein intake.

But you’ll need the tools to make it happen and, right now, one of the best blenders you can buy is on sale ahead of Black Friday. The Breville Super Q Blender is $489 at Amazon right now although you’ll need to be quick — at time of writing there were only four left in stock.

Beats Studio Pro drops to lowest price

Epic Deal Lowest Price

Here’s a confession: I go through headphones like Tic Tacs thanks to general carelessness and the rough n’ ready lifestyle of an office-dwelling tech journalist. Therefore, I’m always interested when Black Friday starts ushering in a choice selection of headphone discounts.

Right now, you can grab the Beats Studio Pro for just $169 at Amazon — a massive $180 discount. This is the lowest price I’ve seen for a pair of headphones that keeps the familair Beats sound but tones down some of the typical style cues with matte metal accents and more subtle logos.

A Fenix from the flames

Garmin Fenix 7 BF lowest price

(Image credit: Future)

One of the best money saving tips to consider is opting for a slightly older product that still fulfils all your needs. Take the Garmin Fenix 7 smartwatch for example. It was launched in 2022 and has since been overtaken by both the Fenix 7 Pro and the Fenix 8. But right now it’s down to just $448 at Amazon — very nearly the lowest price we’ve ever seen for this model.

The thinking is clear here: Amazon wants to shift inventory to make room for the newer models. But the Garmin Fenix 7 is still a very capable wearable. It’s been updated regularly and has all of Garmin’s latest training analysis features. That’s on top of accurate sports tracking, excellent navigation tools including offline maps, and smart features like music storage and NFC payments. Thanks to this Black Friday deal, it’s also 31% cheaper.

The first batch of Walmart Black Friday deals will be released next Monday. Walmart Plus members will get first dibs on the deals. In addition, they’ll also get exclusive access to select Walmart deals. If you’ve been curious about Walmart Plus, but don’t want to make a large investment — right now you can get a year of Walmart Plus for just $49. It’s the same Black Friday deal we saw from Walmart last year. Nevertheless, it remains one of the best deals on its service.

If you need a reasonably-sized TV for the bedroom or den, this 48-inch LG C4 OLED is a great choice. In our LG C4 OLED TV review we celebrated the “stunning picture quality, game performance and features” available on this ultra-thin TV. And right now you can get one for $996, which is the lowest price we’ve seen for this 48-inch panel.

The Blink Outdoor is a fully wireless home security camera that records video in 1080p, lets you store video locally (or in the cloud), and has a two-year battery life. The Editor’s Choice camera holds a spot in our list of the best home security cameras. It hit $39 during October Prime Day and guess what — it’s selling for $39 again as part of Amazon’s Black Friday sale. It’s part of a larger sale on Blink devices that includes deals on bundles, video doorbells, and more.

I never thought I’d say this, but I love my Crocs. I was a bit skeptical about them at first, but after getting a pair this past summer I can see why people love them so much. They’re comfy, snug/secure, and pretty rugged. You can usually find them on sale any given day of the week, but right now Amazon is offering steeper than average price cuts with deals from $15. Check out the full sale via the link or check out some of the deals I’ve highlighted below.

Apple Watch 10

(Image credit: Amazon)

There are going to be a ton of Black Friday Apple Watch deals rolling out in the next few weeks. However, if you can’t wait — the best Apple Watch deal I’ve spotted today comes from Amazon. It has the Series 10 on sale for $355. If you can afford to wait, I totally recommend waiting. I expect this same watch to drop to at least $349 come Thanksgiving Day. That said, $355 ain’t a bad price. Just keep in mind today’s deal is for the model with the Plum Sport Loop only.

The Gym People specializes in apparel for — you guessed it — the gym! Tom’s Guide fitness editor Jane McGuire is a fan of the brand and compares the feel and performance of their apparel to some of her favorite Lululemon clothes — minus the high price tag. Right now Amazon has a sitewide sale on The Gym People apparel. The sale includes hoodies, shorts, and sweatshirts from $18.

I love my Yeti mug. It does an awesome job of keeping my coffee hot in the morning and it has a MagSafe slider that makes it impossible to spill what’s inside. Right now Amazon is slashing the price of various Yeti tumblers and mugs. Yeti coolers aren’t on sale, but it’s still a pretty sweet discount on some of our favorite Yeti drinkware.

Yeti sale: deals from $10 @ Amazon

Ninja appliances with a price drop badge

(Image credit: Amazon)

I’m a huge Ninja appliance fan. I’ve been using one of their coffee makers every day for the past 2 years and I also own one of their Foodi XL Combo units. Both appliances are solidly built, easy to use, and have stood up well to every day use. If you need some new gadgets for your kitchen, Walmart has Ninja appliances on sale from $59. The sale includes the Ninja 12-Cup Stainless Steel Coffee Maker for $59. (This is the model I use at home).

If you need to revamp your workout wardrobe, Nike is taking 40% off sitewide right now. The sale includes sneakers, hoodies, leggings, joggers, and more. Tom’s Guide fitness expert and marathoner Jessica Downey has rounded up all of her favorite Nike Black Friday deals this week. There are even some solid discounts on some of our favorite running shoes. (For extra savings this holiday season), check out our guide to the best Nike promo codes.

The best OLED TV deal of 2024….

The LG B4 displaying a colorful, abstract image and the words

(Image credit: LG)

Hey all! Deals editor Louis here hopping on the Tom’s Guide live blog for the next few hours. It’s November 4th and in my eyes — it’s officially Black Friday. To be honest, the holiday season technically started last month with Amazon’s fall Prime Day, but now it’s in high gear with practically every retailer offering official Black Friday deals.

For example, right now you can get the LG B4 48-inch 4K OLED TV on sale for $649. That’s the cheapest OLED TV I’ve seen all year. It’s a solid deal if you’re looking to buy your first OLED and don’t have a big budget. If you can afford it, I recommend going for the 65-inch model (currently at an all-time price low). You’ll never regret the extra screen real estate. Note: The 48-inch model is a Best Buy exclusive.

LG B4 48″ 4K OLED TV: was $1,499 now $649 @ Best Buy

Put a (Oura) ring on it

Oura ring 3 deal

(Image credit: Future)

Smartwatches are great. But you don’t always want to strap a second screen to your wrist when something more discreet will do the trick. Enter the Oura Ring 3 which is currently down to $436 at Amazon — a saving of over $100. It’ll track your sleep, your steps and your stress and I guarantee you’ll forget your wearing it. Unlike any of the best smartwatches.

Yes, this model has since been replaced by the Oura Ring 4 but that doesn’t mean you should pass up this epic deal. The only sting in the tail is, at time of writing, there are only two left in stock at that price (in the Rose Gold colorway and Horizon style) so you’ll need to be quick! Otherwise you can pick up the same Horizon design in standard Gold for $449.

Runner-approved Hoka deals

Epic Deal Lowest Price

Tom’s Guide happens to be home to a lot of runners (myself included) and if you’re lacing up in search of a new PR, you could do a lot worse than Hoka. I’ve not personally run in any Hoka shoes for a few years but I asked our fitness expert and marathon runner Nick Harris-Fry to give me some thoughts on the best Hoka discounts you can shop now.

“Hoka makes some of the best running shoes available, and the Black Friday deals this year actually include one of my favorite new shoes of 2024,” he wrote in his full round-up on Hoka deals. I’ve cherry-picked a couple of standouts for you to include here.

iPhone 16 Pro Max… for 1 cent

iPhone 16 Pro Max shown in hand

(Image credit: Tom’s Guide)

This insane deal is a Prime Day and Black Friday staple that’s back for another year. When you commit to a Boost Infinite plan through Amazon for 36 months, you get what would be a $1,599 iPhone 16 Pro Max (1TB) for $0.01. Yep, you read that right.

Here’s the fine print: You’ll have to commit to paying $81.66/month for 36 months. That ends up being $2,939.76 to have the 1TB iPhone 16 Pro Max active with Boost Mobile’s unlimited plan (netting you 30GB of premium data per month before it’s slowed down). That’s obviously more than $1,599 but it’s competitive with plans offered by both AT&T and Verizon. If you want to know more, my colleague John Velasco broke it down here during the most recent Prime Day.

Here’s just a few awesome deals I’ve spotted on Amazon’s own hardware.
