    Black Friday 2026 falls on November 27th. That's 8 months away, but the smart shopping starts now. Here's our data-driven strategy for maximizing savings.

    The Price Tracking Strategy

    Most "Black Friday deals" are products that were quietly price-increased in October, then "discounted" back to their normal price. The real deals — genuine 30-50% discounts — exist, but you need price history to spot them.

    Start now: Bookmark products you want and note their current prices. When Black Friday arrives, you'll know instantly whether a deal is real or fake.

    Categories With the Best Real Discounts

    Based on our analysis of the last 3 Black Fridays:

    TVs (30-50% off) — BEST CATEGORY

    TV manufacturers release new models in spring and need to clear inventory by November. This is genuinely the best time to buy a TV.

    Robot Vacuums (25-40% off)

    iRobot, Roborock, and Ecovacs consistently offer their deepest discounts on Black Friday.

    Smart Home Devices (40-60% off)

    Echo, Ring, Blink — Amazon slashes its own hardware dramatically.

    Portable Power (20-35% off)

    Brands like EcoFlow, Jackery, and Bluetti offer their biggest annual discounts.

    What to Skip on Black Friday

    • Laptops: Selection is limited to older/low-spec models
    • Apple products: Rarely more than $30-50 off
    • SD cards / SSDs: Already at historic lows
    • Cables & accessories: Amazon Basics prices don't change
