Best Buy launches surprise 48-hour weekend flash sale: Apple, TVs, appliances, laptops, more

48-Hour/Flash Sale

Alongside a fresh batch of Deals of the Day, Best Buy has launched a surprise 48-hour flash sale for the weekend. Ranging from TV and hundreds in savings on home appliances, to Magic the Gathering and trading cards at up to 40% of, deep deals on Halloween decor, and up to $160 off select iPhone models, this weekend’s Best Buy sale event is now in full swing.

Best Buy 48-hour weekend flash sale

While Best Buy is no stranger to a good flash sale, we typically see something more like a 4-day event that starts earlier in the week and spans through the weekend before something new lands on Monday morning. We presume this will be the case to start the work week come Monday, but for now we are getting a somewhat surprising flash event through Sunday. 

Here are the featured offers:

• Save $50 on Insignia 40″ class FE Series LED Full HD smart TV
• Save up to 40% on select trading card games and collectibles
• Save up to $300 on select Creality 3D printing products
• Whirlpool laundry pair at $820 off

From there you’ll also find some light iPad deals, loads of Halloween inflatables and decor at up to 60% off, and some notable gaming laptop offers:

• Save up to 60% on select Halloween inflatables and decor
• Save $550 on Acer Nitro V 16″ Intel Core™ 7 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 gaming laptop
• Save $110 or $160 on select iPhone unlocked
• Save $20 on select iPad mini

While the $160 off brand new unlocked iPhone Air models are certainly notable here – this is within $10 of the lowest price we have ever tracked at Best Buy and Amazon doesn’t officially carry new condition iPhone Air units, the other Apple deals live this weekend are, by and large, even better over at Amazon
