Amazon Black Friday 2025: Official dates, what to expect, and deals already in sight

Black Friday is fast approaching and Amazon has joined the bandwagon with official dates. On November 9, the Mega-Retailer dropped the big news: Amazon’s Black Friday sale will begin on Thursday, November 20 and continue through Monday, Dec. 1 with the most money on offer across the board.

Black Friday is one of the biggest shopping events of the year. The catch is that the one day Friday after Thanksgiving has turned into a full-blown event that begins long before the holiday itself. But we are not complaining. Shopping online before Thanksgiving is easy, and it’s sure to beat standing in line at 3 armed with a playful turkey sandwich on Black Friday.

Amazon’s announcement of Black Friday dates and deals joins other major retailers that are just throwing out full sale details including Good Buy, Target, and Home Depot.

What to expect during Amazon’s black sale

The Black Friday event is always full of deals ranging from today’s top tech to kitchen gadgets to toys all the kids are looking for under the tree this year. We expect that this year we will follow suit and offer lower prices, beating or at least matching the previous ones that we usually see during Prime Day events.

We’re already seeing lower prices on hot items like LEGO SETS, robot stations, and portable power stations. And it’s also proving to be a hot season for Apple’s big deals. According to Amazon Press Release, these are the drugs we can look forward to starting on November 20:

• Up to 55% Off Select Home Products from Shark and Kitchen Appliances from Ninja

• Up to 50% off Amazon devices like the Echo Dot Max, Fire TV Stick Lineup, Fire tablets, and more

• Up to 50% off electronics from jbl and canon

• Up to 45% off bose Audio

• Up to 40% off kitchen items from Vitamix, Staub, Nespresso, and more

• Up to 40% off select items from bissell and indobot

• Up to 40% on home entertainment from Stay, TCL, and LG

• Up to 40% on toys from melissa & doug, little tykes, play-doh, and nerf

• Up to 35% on select Samsung and Google products

This is an abbreviated list of top deals, but rest assured there will be thousands more. Don’t forget that Black Friday is one of the best times to score big discounts on both kindle books and print books. Amazon Mentis Editions will be 80% off and physical books will be 65% off.

Price Check before buying

At first glance, the deal may look good, but it’s worth a few seconds of research. To make sure you’re actually getting a good deal, head over to CamelcamelCamel to check out the product’s pricing history. Just copy the Amazon URL into the Price Tracker and you’ll get the full stats. Occasionally, Amazon can make a deal look better than it actually is financially overpriced. On the flip side, we’ve also seen Amazon Throw in a list price lower than the recommended MSRP that could spell an amazing deal for Amon shoppers.
