Amazon, The Home Depot, and Best Buy are quietly dropping epic early Black Friday deals — here's what I'd buy
Get a jump start on your holiday shopping
The first Black Friday sales of 2026 are now live. Sure, it may feel like we just celebrated Halloween, but Thanksgiving is roughly 20 days out and the Black Friday creep is starting earlier than ever.
I've been tracking Black Friday deals for 19 years and November is hands-down the best time of year to buy just about anything. 4K TVs, kitchen appliances, running sneakers, and tablets are just a handful of the items you'll find discounted this month. The best part is that you don't have to wait till Black Friday proper to start saving.
Major retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, and Amazon have started their Black Friday tease with deals even I didn't expect to see this early. For example, Amazon devices are on sale from $23 right now. The sale includes lowest prices of the year on Blink, Fire TV Sticks, and even Amazon's new line of Ember 4K TVs.
Below I'm rounding up all of my favorite deals on devices we've tested, recommend, or personally own. For more discounts, check out our Black Friday deals guide.

32% off a MicroSD card for more Switch 2 game storage...
This Samsung MicroSDXC card gets you more storage — and since it's compatible with the Nintendo Switch 2, it's handy if you want more space for your digital games. Right now you can get a 512GB card for $99. The lowest price ever for this one is $74, but since prices for storage devices are generally on the rise, this deal isn't bad. I'm a Switch 2 gamer myself, so I'm very tempted.
