If you’re looking for savings on tech, the Best Buy Black Friday sale is where you should cast your gaze in 2020. The retailer had already started offering early Black Friday deals alongside Amazon Prime Day and will continue to release new deals throughout all of November. Right now, you can find deals on TVs, soundbars, laptops, headphones, and more.
Best Buy is also offering a Black Friday Prices Guaranteed policy for its members, which means you can sign up for free to get automatic refunds on certain items if the price drops further before November 28. Membership also includes free shipping with no minimum purchase requirements, so there’s really no reason not to take advantage of it.
We’ll be keeping this page updated with the latest online deals as they arrive, as well as any new information we find on the larger Best Buy Black Friday sale launching in November.

When does the Best Buy Black Friday sale begin?
Best Buy isn’t doing a Black Friday sale in the traditional sense this year. Instead, it’s offering deals in cycles in the run-up and is promising to refund the differences if the prices slip further between now and November 28. It’s releasing new deals every day, but has some specical discounts in store on the following dates:
What deals will the Best Buy Black Friday sale include?
Best Buy has yet to release a Black Friday ad in 2020, so we can only really make educated guesses about what the best deals will be. Going off the current early sales going on now, it seems safe to assume that there will be some of the best TV deals, laptop sales, and headphone discounts we’ve seen all year.
Additionally, Best Buy has been known to offer low prices on MacBooks, iPad deals, and a smattering of Apple AirPods deals. So if you’re looking for Apple tech, this will likely be one of the best sales to check. With price matching in effect, it’s highly likely that discounts on many of these items will shift depending on what’s happening in the market.
Will Best Buy Black Friday deals be available in store this year?
With shipping concerns becoming more and more apparent as we get closer to the holiday shopping season, it’s safe to assume that any deals available online will also be available in brick and mortar locations. Additionally, to combat high levels of foot traffic, you will be able to choose to utilize curbside pickup for any items your local store has in stock. With social distancing concerns, this will likely be the easiest way to avoid shipping delays on various products.
Will Best Buy have a Cyber Monday Sale?
It’s unclear whether or not Best Buy will be participating in Cyber Monday deals this year. The website is currently offering a placeholder for Cyber Monday, but it looks as if it hasn’t been updated since the end of 2019.
One reason we have to suspect that Best Buy will not be participating in Cyber Monday is that their Black Friday guarantee only lasts through November 28. It’s possible that the retailer will switch the branding of this as soon as its Black Friday sale comes to an end. However, with shipping concerns being one of the biggest issues online retailers are facing during the 2020 holiday season, it seems possible that Best Buy Cyber Monday will not happen this year.
Will other retailers have better Black Friday sales?
Almost every online retailer will have a Black Friday sale in 2020. While we don’t yet know if discounts from Walmart, Amazon, and Target will out-pace Best Buy deals in 2020, we do know that Best Buy’s price match guarantee will make it hard to beat in terms of tech sales. Here’s a quick rundown of the main sales we expect this year.
Amazon Black Friday: Amazon is currently offering early Black Friday deals in the form of its Holiday Dash event. This sale is set to last until November 19, which is when we expect the Amazon Black Friday sale to officially kick-off.
Walmart Black Friday: The Walmart Black Friday sale will be spreading across 3 separate weekends starting on November 4 at 7 p.m. ET.
Target Black Friday: The Target Black Friday sale will be going on all November long, with new deals arriving each week.
