Every November, Best Buy transforms into a shopping frenzy on the day after Thanksgiving, offering doorbuster deals on TVs, laptops, and other electronics. While the official Black Friday sale starts on the Thursday before, early deals typically begin around Halloween. Best Buy has not announced the exact start date for Black Friday 2026, but based on past patterns, shoppers can expect early doorbuster sales to start around Halloween, with the official sale likely kicking off on Thursday, November 19, 2026.
The retailer recently started early deals on November 8 in 2024 and November 8 in 2025, suggesting a similar pattern for 2026. The official Black Friday sale has also generally opened on a Thursday, a week to ten days before November 27. Analysts warn that electronics prices are expected to rise due to AI-driven chip costs, dubbed "chipflation," which could push up the price of laptops, phones, and other devices throughout 2026.
Best Buy's early doorbuster sales usually cluster in categories like TVs, laptops, tablets, gaming consoles, headphones, and smart home devices. Memberships like My Best Buy Plus and My Best Buy Total offer early access to these deals. Best Buy's Holiday Price Match Guarantee ensures that if prices drop later in the season, customers can get a refund, and the extended return window during the holidays allows for returns up to January.
