There’s a good chance you’ve already got Nov. 26 circled on your calendar — especially if you pride yourself on your ability to sniff out a good deal from a mile away. Black Friday has become synonymous with cheap finds and wildly low prices on high end and well-loved products like smartphones and mattresses — but it might actually be worth holding out for Black Friday to get the heft of your holiday shopping done as well.
Wondering what giftable items will likely go on major sale come Black Friday? Below, we’ve rounded up some of the safest bets that you’ll probably want to hold out on and buy come November. From personal tech and smart home products to kitchen appliances and high end vacuum cleaners, here are all the gifts you’ll want to look out for on Black Friday.
AirPod Pro
It doesn’t matter if you’re shopping for a teenager or a budding business mogul — everyone on your list will appreciate a fresh pair of Airpod Pros. The popular Bluetooth earbuds regularly go on sale but have historically been listed for nearly $100 off retail price on Black Friday! That’s well worth the wait — especially if you’re planning on purchasing more than one pair for the holidays.
List price $179.99 at Walmart.com
iRobot Roomba
The iRobot Roomba is a life changing gift. Once you have a robot vacuum you can never go back to manual vacuuming alone. The premium vacuum cleaner can be quite pricey if you’re hoping to score the latest model but tends to go for up to 40 % off on Black Friday.
List price $599.99 at Amazon.com
Instant Pot
Between the Instant Pot and the air fryer we’re not sure what we’d prefer to find under the tree come Christmas morning—but if you’re looking for something versatile and budget-friendly the Instant Pot will take you the furthest. Both kitchen appliances tend to go on major sale come Black Friday but the Instant Pot has historically been listed for over 50 % off.
List price $89 at Amazon.com
Google Nest Audio
Smart speakers have become all the range over the years — and for good reason! The popular tech accessory makes it easier than ever to check the weather in the morning, listen to podcasts and play music simply by voice command. The Google Nest Audio takes the smart speaker one step further with an improved audio that even the most critical audiophiles would appreciate. The best part? It’s expected to go on major sale in November along with the rest of the Google speaker line.

LG OLED 4K UHD Smart TV
Yeah, yeah, we know. Everyone is already well aware that TV sets go on serious sale come Black Friday — but we just want to remind you that it’s well worth postponing that big ticket purchase just a little longer. Whether you’re looking for a high end smart TV like the LG OLED or you want something smaller perhaps for the kid’s playroom or the family room, pricing on televisions of all price points and sizes get majorly slashed on Black Friday.
List price $1,870.49 at Walmart.com
Brooklinen
Considering gifting your loved ones a brand new set of fresh sheets? Like mattress brands, independent linen companies like Brooklinen tend to offer incredible discounts on Black Friday. Whether you’re looking for accessories, full bed clothes, or a little of everything, you can expect to save up to 50 % off depending on the brand.

Dyson V11 Torque Drive Cordless Vacuum
Dyson has splashed onto the scene with everything from hair dryers to aesthetically pleasing fans and air purifiers — but the Dyson cordless vacuum still reigns supreme in our books. The impressive suction and slim design makes this vacuum well worth the price — but especially on Black Friday when it’s hundreds of dollars off retail.
$699.99 list price at Amazon.com
Amazon Fire Stick
The Amazon Fire Stick allows anyone to cast their favorite shows directly onto the TV. The classic tech accessory makes a great stocking stuffer for almost everyone on your list — and becomes even more appealing on Black Friday when it costs about the same as a delivery on UberEats.
$49.99 list price at Amazon.com
KitchenAid Mixer
Small kitchen appliances are a serious contender for the number one Black Friday sale to watch for — and the KitchenAid mixer leaders the pack. A new standmixer is a great gift for young adults who might be showing interest in the kitchen or anyone who likes to bake up a storm throughout the winter months.
