Welcome to the delightful chaos of holiday shopping. Because yes, the glory days of waiting until Thanksgiving have been officially upgraded to sooner and better deals.
Mark your calendar: this year, Black Friday falls on Friday, Nov. 28, 2025, and the online frenzy known as Cyber Monday arrives on Monday, Dec. 1, 2025. But here’s the twist: if you’re shopping only on those days, you’re probably missing out. Enter the era of early Black Friday deals — because why wait when the savings beast pounces ahead of time?
First things first: what are these early Black Friday deals 2025 all about? Retail giants like best streaming deals available.
Savvy shoppers in the know are already circling the deals boards, prepping alerts and following our coverage here at Post Wanted.

But are early Black Friday deals worth it? Short answer: yes — but with caveats. Sure, there are awesome markdowns from the likes of Old Navy, Ulta Beauty that you might not have to wait for Nov. 28 to scoop. That said, you’ve got to watch out for pricing gimmicks, limited-stock door-busters and the promise of a “deal” that simply mirrors the regular price.
The trick is being ready; if the price is good now, and it matches what comparable tracking sites show, then pulling the trigger and shopping early may win you peace of mind and savings.
Let’s set the tone: this is not your grandma’s Black Friday where you camp outside all night for one $5 microwave. It’s smarter, faster, more digital and frankly, more fun (if you like scoring wins). Wherever you’re shopping, we’re here to dial down the list to the very best early deals you can score now. It’s not like we’ve been reporting on Black Friday for years now…
Amazon
Amazon is where you’ll find basically anything you’re searching for, with thousands of markdowns and a user-friendly shopping experience to hit *all* of the deals — like the Apple AirTags (4-Pack) that’s 34% off ahead of Black Friday.
Last Black Friday, Post Wanted readers purchased this item the most, and now these noise-canceling headphones are more than 50% off. Our streaming reporter Apple AirPods Max, but are a fraction of the price.”
This is the ideal set to have on hand if you’re a home owner, and it makes an excellent gift for anyone in your life who’s in need of a stock-up for pre-holiday DIY projects. Plus, we cover all of the DeWalt sales, so we’re always zoned in to what’s *truly* worth it from the brand.
Here at Post Wanted, we review everything from the Always Pan, and it’s crystal clear that a sharp, well-made knife set makes all the difference. These come with blade guards and are dishwasher-safe. Plus, we track prices with CamelCamelCamel and they’re the best price ever at 60% off before Black Friday.
Walmart
At Walmart, you can score early Black Friday Rollbacks on a variety of shopping categories, from tech to home. Namely, we’re all about this early Black Friday TV deal on the VIZIO 50-inch Class 4K UHD LED HDR Smart TV.
Saving nearly $300 off a top-rated Dyson vacuum is a big deal, and our team has reviewed nearly every Dyson vacuum and are completely addicted to their working power. This is a best-seller for good reason.
We’ve lost count of how many times we’ve highlighted Bissell’s all-powerful carpet cleaner as an excellent buy. Plus, it’s excellent for storing in smaller spaces.
Each year, the acclaimed KitchenAid Stand Mixer is at the top of everyone’s wishlists. It is *not* something you should pay full price for, and now’s the time to pull the trigger and make your baking dreams come true.
Cozy Earth
Black Friday has already begun at Cozy Earth (one of our favorite brands that blows up our Slack chat). Now, enjoy up to 25% off sitewide. It’s the coziest time of year and, for that reason, we recommend picking up the Cuddle Blanket that anyone on your holiday shopping list is sure to love.
Underrated at Cozy Earth? These comfy slippers that we want to walk around in 24/7. If you need a gift under $100, put these under the tree.
They’re popular for a reason, and clad in wonderful colors and prints that are ultra-cozy to unwrap. They’re the showpiece of any PJ drawer, too.
Ah, the tried and true. While Cozy Earth is hosting its early Black Friday sale, it’s your best time to score the best bamboo sheets we reviewed. The below price is for its Queen size, but all options are 25% off.
lululemon
Before Black Friday, lululemon has secret markdowns within its “We Made Too Much” section, and we’re eyeing the Smooth Spacer Classic-Fit Pullover Hoodie that’s 50% off.
Before they sell out, the lululemon Women’s Strongfeel Training Shoe is a shoe that you should truly add to your collection. After reviewing lululemon shoes, they’re some of the most comfortable, lightweight and versatile shoes I own. Plus, they’ll withstand the test of time.
I received the lululemon Scuba Oversized Half-Zip Hoodie as a birthday gift and let me tell you — it’s the only top I need to lounge around the house (or out and about). The brand always surprises me with eye-catching colors, and the best time to purchase it is when it lands on the “We Made Too Much” list ahead of Black Friday.
If you’ve been eyeing a pair of lululemon leggings, now’s the time to pick up a pair of your own while they’re well under $100. Available in fun colors and prints, they’re some of the most luxurious in my workout clothes drawer, and they make an epic gift for the fitness lover you know.
