Black Friday 2023 is a few short weeks away, but that doesn’t mean retailers aren’t already gearing up for the biggest shopping event of the year.
Best Buy was one of the first retailers to reveal its Black Friday plans, which include a month’s worth of deals for holiday shoppers.
The Best Buy Black Friday sale has big discounts on TVs, laptops, phones, tablets, gaming consoles and more. Best Buy specializes in all-thing electronics, also selling smart appliances, robot vacuums, home security systems and almost any other tech need you might have a need for.
Because electronics are on most people’s wishlists for the holidays, Best Buy has become a go-to source for coveted products from Apple, Samsung, Bose, Beats, Xbox and many other popular brands.
So, as you prepare your Christmas shopping list, here’s everything you need to know about the big Best Buy Black Friday sale for 2023.
When does Best Buy Black Friday start?
Best Buy Black Friday sales first started for My Best Buy Plus and My Best Buy Total members on October 27 and went through 29. The early deals were then made available to everyone else on October 30.
However, the big Best Buy Black Friday sale will actually start on November 17 and run through November 25. Cyber Monday deals will follow on November 26-27.
The early access Black Friday deals are available online as well as all Black Friday markdowns on the same days. But you will need to have those Best Buy Plus and My Best Buy Total memberships to start shopping early on October 27.
A Best Buy Plus membership costs $49.99 a year and includes perks, such as free two-day shipping, exclusive member pricing, 60-day returns and early access to sales.
The My Best Buy Total membership costs $179.99 a year and has additional benefits, such as 24/7 tech support, VIP member support, 20% off repairs and protection plans.
What are the Best Buy Black Friday deals?
Even though Best Buy released its Black Friday sale’s dates, the retailer didn’t give any hints about the deals that will be available.
Based on past Best Buy Black Friday sales, we do expect to see deep discounts on those holiday season must-haves. We think that once again there will be mega deals on TVs as well as major Apple price drops, especially on AirPods and Watches.
Another popular item that we anticipate seeing big savings on for Black Friday is Beats headphones and there could be a bundle deal or two on gaming consoles from Xbox and PS5.
Don’t count Best Buy out for those other tech purchases that may also be on sale, including small kitchen appliances, grills, kid’s toys, vacuums and more.
