Black Friday season is in full swing and Amazon is already showing off with its epic deals. If your inbox is giving you hives from the influx of deals from every retailer, we're breaking down all of the details of Amazon's sale for you below — from when the sale starts and ends to what deals are worth adding to your cart.
Amazon Black Friday deals at a glance:
Black Friday is one of, if not the biggest shopping event of the year. What used to be a single day on the Friday after Thanksgiving has turned into a full-blown season that starts far before the holiday itself and extends through December. But we're not complaining. Having more time to sort out your finances and shop for less is a blessing in a time when everything is outrageously expensive.
Unlike its major competitors Walmart, Best Buy, and Target, Amazon doesn't have a physical storefront where you can wait in line to score doorbuster deals. And yet, it typically ends up having the best prices of every retailer regardless of it being online only. And honestly, nothing beats shopping from your couch with a turkey hangover on Black Friday.

Here's everything you need to know about the Amazon Black Friday 2025 sale, including the best deals already live.
When is Amazon's Black Friday sale?
The mega-retailer's Black Friday sale kicked off early on Thursday, Nov. 20 and will run through the end of the day Friday, Nov. 28 with plenty of deals on offer throughout. The banners will then switch over from Black Friday to Cyber Monday language on Saturday, Nov. 29 (yes, Amazon does do Cyber Monday as well) and the Cyber Monday sale will run through Monday, Dec. 1.
Amazon doesn't release a traditional Black Friday ad like its competitors. Instead, it announces its plans for Black Friday in the form of a press release — and then proceeds to drop some of the best deals of the season when the time comes.
Officially, these are the categories Amazon highlighted in its press release, but it doesn't even include some of the top deals we've seen thus far (read on to shop those). Regardless, here's what Amazon's ad highlights include for its Black Friday sale:

Price check before you buy
On first glance, a deal might look great, but it's worth a few extra seconds of research. To confirm you're actually getting a good deal, head to Camelcamelcamel to check on a product's price history. Just copy the Amazon URL into the price tracker and you'll get full stats. On occasion, Amazon can make a deal look better than it actually is by inflating the list price. On the flip side, we've also seen Amazon post the list price as something lower than the recommended MSRP which can spell an awesome deal for Amazon shoppers.
