The best early Black Friday deals to shop right now

Black Friday may be a few weeks away, but retailers are already offering notable discounts on products across categories like tech, home and kitchen, beauty and more. The mega sale — which is on Nov. 24 — is historically one of the biggest shopping days of the year, but waiting until then to make purchases means you’re already behind, experts say. Popular items will start to sell out leading up to the event, so if you don’t start shopping now, you may miss out on discounts.

Below, we compiled the best Black Friday deals worth shopping right now. We’ll continue updating you about new savings opportunities throughout the next few weeks.

All of our recommendations below are based on our previous coverage and reporting.  We’re running deals through price trackers like CamelCamelCamel to ensure each product is either at its lowest price ever or its lowest price in at least three months.

Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K (2023)

4.4-star average rating from 577 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

Amazon’s Fire Stick plugs into TVs and lets you stream movies, shows, music and more. It comes with a remote you can control manually or via Alexa voice commands. Compared to previous models, this Fire Stick — Amazon’s latest version — supports Wi-Fi 6 if you have a compatible router, has increased memory and a more powerful processor.

Fitbit Luxe

4.4-star average rating from 10,539 reviews on Amazon

Fitbit makes some of our favorite fitness trackers, and the brand’s Luxe model collects data about your activity, sleep and health metrics like heart rate and breathing rate. The watch connects to a companion app via Bluetooth and offers up to five days of battery life on a single charge.

Google Pixel Buds Pro

4.4-star average rating from 4,793 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

These wireless earbuds block out sounds in active noise cancellation mode, but if you want to partially hear your surroundings, you can turn on transparency mode instead. The Pixel Buds Pro offer up to 31 hours of battery life with their charging case and come with Google Assistant — you can use voice commands to adjust the volume, skip a song or respond to a text. The earbuds are compatible with most Bluetooth-enabled devices, like iOS and Android phones, laptops and tablets.

Instant Omni Air Fryer Toaster Oven

4.6-star average rating from 64,210 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

This countertop appliance offers seven cook modes so you can air fry, toast, bake, roast, broil, warm or convection bake food. It’s large enough to fit a 12-inch pizza, six slices of bread or a whole chicken, according to the brand. You can set the temperature from 170 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, choose from three roasting levels and set the timer to remind you when a dish is done. The appliance also comes with an air fry basket, oven rack and baking tray.

Ninja Professional Blender BL610

4.7-star average rating from 48,757 reviews on Amazon

I use this blender multiple times a week to make smoothies, soups and purees, and it works as well as it did when I bought it two years ago. It has a 1000-watt motor and comes with a 72-ounce pitcher, a lid and a blade — all accessories are dishwasher-safe. You can choose from low, medium or high blending speeds, and the appliance offers a pulse mode.
