If your belly is full of turkey and pie, it's time to get shopping because Black Friday 2025 is here.
After weeks of anticipation, the biggest shopping event of the year has arrived, but the deals have been here for weeks. Best Buy dropped early deals and doorbusters starting Oct. 31, and Target started its first holiday savings event on Nov. 6. Now, both Walmart and Amazon have joined the fray, delivering record prices on AirPods, Apple Watches, Kindles, Legos, Ninja appliances, and Samsung TVs.
Now that Black Friday has arrived, we expect the deals to get even better than they were ahead of the event. Keep this page bookmarked throughout the sale as we'll be updating this guide with the latest Black Friday deals from Amazon, Target, Walmart, Best Buy, and beyond. The major players have special daily deals you won't want to miss. And word of advice? Don't wait to buy. Now that Black Friday is here, deals will sell out fast.

Why we like it
The 13-inch MacBook Air is down to a record-low price of $749 for Black Friday this year. This is our favorite laptop for students, thanks to its M4 silicon and slim design. This markdown is so good that even if it does happen to drop lower for Cyber Monday (and we're not counting on it), you still score a great deal without waiting for shopping chaos later this week.

Read our full review of the Bose QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 1) headphones.
The Bose QC Ultra headphones have long been some of our favorite noise-cancelling headphones. Even though Bose recently replaced them with a new Gen 2 model, the originals are still an excellent value for your money — especially at the record low price of $299.

Best Black Friday streaming deal
Works for new and returning subscribers
Why we like it
"Through Dec. 1, new and returning subscribers can get 12 months of HBO Max Basic with ads for only $2.99 per month. That's just $35.88 total for the year. Since the Warner Bros. Discovery-owned streaming service just raised the cost of its Basic with ads plan in October from $9.99 to $10.99 per month, this Black Friday deal ends up saving you $96 or 73% total across 12 months.
The past two years, HBO Max offered just six months of streaming for $2.99 per month. So not only did it double the length of the discount in 2025, but with the price hike, you'll actually be saving even more." — Christina Buff, Mashable contributor
