In our continued mission to uncover the best Black Friday deals even before they go live and ensure folks have a good shot at scoring the lowest prices on the most sought-after gear, next up is the all-new 4th generation Google Nest Learning Thermostat. Alongside all of the new Pixel gear that debuted this past summer that will being seeing deep price drops starting this week, Google’s latest Nest Thermostat will also be joining the party after finally getting a major overhaul and redesign for the first time in nearly a decade. We are touching down to make sure you are fully aware of the upcoming price drop and to ensure you don’t get sucked in to an inferior deal before it goes live. 

The first wave of Walmart’s 2-phase Black Friday sale went live on November 11 (many of the deals are still available right now), and it recently detailed its upcoming main event set to kick-off in just over a week now. The retailer issued a massive 40-page ad for its first wave of deals we featured for you right here and, while we await the official full look at the deals, Walmart has now flipped its early Black Friday landing page over for the official event. This is indeed where all of the upcoming deals will land come next week and there are some additional hints and sneak peaks at the deals now. Scope it out below.

But for now it’s all about the apps, including titles like Lil Big Invasion: Dungeon Buzz, ELOH, Old Man’s Journey, Inventioneers, Chloe Puzzle Game Pro, and more. Head below for a closer look. 

Walmart is now giving up the details for its official 2024 Black Friday sale. While we already featured the massive 40-page ad for the early sale event that has now come and gone, as we previously reported the Walmart sale will come in two phases and we now have the official details on the second and final half of the event. We now have the official start time for Walmart’s Black Friday Deals sale as well as more information on its Cyber Monday event and even a sneak peek at pricing on a host of products that will be on sale come next week. Head below to scope out the official details on the 2024 Walmart Black Friday sale. 

While we are still a few days away from the start of Amazon’s official Black Friday Week Sale, it tends to start the deals on its in-house gear early and we just spotted some fresh new Blink smart home offers. Amazon’s Blink brand delivers some of the more affordable gear in the smart home space and some of its just got a whole lot lower. The latest Blink Video Doorbell, for example, is now down at just $29.99 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. That’s a straight up 50% price drop from the regular $60 list price and the lowest we can find. 

As we have already been extensively reporting on this year, Best Buy has decided to run a series of major early Black Friday events leading right up to the main event all month-long. Alongside the “Black Friday Deals Right Now” sale that is loaded with price drops on headphones, small kitchen appliances, action cameras, Apple gear, Chromebooks, gaming controllers, smart home products, and more, Best Buy is launching a batch of Black Friday Doorbusters every week and has now once again served up a look at what is going to be on tap for this week. 

The Target Day 17 early Black Friday Deals of the Day are now up for the taking.

But for now we are focused on the daily offers alongside a notable LEGO sale featuring Disney, City, and Marvel kits, among others. Head below for a closer look at the Target Day 17 early Black Friday Deals of the Day. 

Another popular item set to go on sale for Black Friday very soon is the new AirPods 4. While actual upcoming prices on Apple’s latest AirPods releases have been mostly vague at this point in the Black Friday 2024 ads we have been tracking, we have spotted a deal on the horizon you will at least want to have on your radar if you’re looking to pick up Apple’s most affordable 2024 AirPods release. While we are expecting deals to hit AirPods 4 at just about all major retailers, Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart included, as of right now an advertised deal at Staples is setting the benchmark for this year’s best Black Friday price. 

With so many retailers and brands kicking things off so early for the biggest shopping season of the year, we are touching down today with the best early Black Friday deals to shop right now. Best Buy has launched early doorbusters this week, we are tracking the best prices of all-time on Amazon’s popular 4K streaming sticks, we have MacBooks at up to $550 off, and the list goes on. Add in a massive $1,200 price drop on Samsung’s epic 55-inch 4K Odyssey gaming monitor, an all-time low on the latest GoPro, hundreds in savings on some of the best e-bikes in the game, and new lows on Anker power stations, and you’re looking at one of the best slates of early deals we have seen in recent memory. Head below to scope out our favorite early Black Friday deals you can score right now. 

One of the hottest items on tap for Black Friday 2024 is the new Apple Watch Series 10 that just released back in September. Walmart got off to the races this year in its early Black Friday sale that went live last week (and is still live) with the lowest prices we have tracked to date across the lineup just before Amazon decided to get in on the action and match all of those deals while also offering new all-time low pricing on the GPS + Cell models as well as the higher-end Titanium variants. However, in our continued effort to uncover the best possible prices on everything, it now looks there is another deal on the horizon for Apple’s Series 10 wearable that undercuts both of them. 

Journey is debuting its new MOTION Apple Find My Key Organizer today, and with a sweet launch deal. There are a few things that, in my opinion, should always have some kind of tracking built-in – my passport wallet, my regular wallet, and my keys. There are others, like smartphones and other pricey tech, but most of them already have that in place. Journey is expanding its Apple Find My-equipped LOC8 family of products, which consists of wallets, finder cards, and more, with its all-new MOTION Key Organizer to complete the trifecta today, and I’m all the way here for it. Now available for purchase with an automatic 20% discount at checkout, you can get a closer look and scope out the details below. 

Anyone looking to score a new Nintendo Switch this holiday season is going to want to take note of this upcoming Black Friday deal. Nintendo has already unleashed the details on its official upcoming Black Friday sale, including prices on Switch games, select hardware, and more, but there is an upcoming deal on the OLED Switch Mario Kart holiday bundle that needs to be on your radar. While there will be several retailers, from Best Buy and Amazon to Walmart, and more, serving up deals on Switch consoles over the next two weeks, at this point Target has them all beat with as much as $155 in savings on the way. 

Update: The phase 2 Disney Store Black Friday sale is now live at up to 30% off.

Regularly $70, you can now land this one down at $49.99 Prime shipped (a $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise). Currently up at $66 on Amazon via third-party sellers, this brilliant webslinging experience has held strong in and around its $70 MSRP with a few occasional drops down to the $50 we are featuring here today. It has never fallen below $50 at Amazon and is still up at the full $70 via Best Buy. You’re looking at the latest entry to Insomniac’s fantastic Spider-Man series featuring both Peter Parker and Miles Morales “as the iconic villain Venom threatens to destroy their lives, their city, and the ones they love.” Players can quickly switch between both characters on the fly as you swing through “an expanded Marvel’s New York” and makes use of “Peter’s new symbiote abilities and Miles’ explosive bio-electric venom powers.” It is also one of the games on Sony’s list of titles that are already enhanced for folks who grabbed the new PS5 Pro as well. 

While Staples already issued an official press release for its upcoming Black Friday sale, we now have our hands-on the entire 15-page official 2024 Staples Black Friday ad.

As part of its now live early access Black Friday sale, Samsung is offering a few sizable price drops on its 2024 model Smart Monitor lineup. One that really caught our eye was this equally as sizable 43-inch Smart Monitor M7 (M70D) down at $349.99 shipped. This model regularly fetches $500, much like it is at Amazon right now, and is now seeing a nice $150 price drop. This deal undercuts the previous Amazon price drop by $20 and matches the lowest we have ever tracked there since its debut this past summer.

Update: While we had a false start due to some technical difficulties, the next run of the limited edition Arc Titanium Tungsten Onyx Black iPhone 16 Bumper Cases are now live.

The Arc Pulse Bumper iPhone 16 cases have easily been among the most popular options with 9to5 readers this year. The unique bumper-style “cases” are really more like a pair of metal end pieces than snap onto either end of your device to provide corner, display, and camera array protection in style without covering up Apple’s wonderful iPhone 16 design. While you can still use our exclusive code to score a deal on the standard issue metal models (use code 9TO510 at checkout) in various colorways, Arc Pulse has informed us that it’s high-end special edition model for iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will finally be back in stock start at 5 a.m. ET/11 a.m. CET today (in 30 minutes from the time of writing) – this model sold out completely and very quickly at launch, so don’t sleep on this chance to score one if you’re interested as there’s no telling how long it will last and if it will come back in stock again down the line.
