Amazon’s Black Friday sale is on — here’s a monster list of the top deals

OSTN Staff

UPDATE: Nov. 12, 2021, 7:00 p.m. EST We’ve scoured Amazon for all the best Black Friday deals. Read on for the top discounts on TVs, laptops, home, kitchen, and more.


You probably weren’t expecting to start your holiday shopping in the beginning of October, but Amazon had other plans for this year’s pre-Black Friday deals. The mega-retailer unveiled its early holiday sales event, Epic Daily Deals on Oct. 4, marking what might be the earliest start to the shopping season we’ve ever seen.

Supply-chain Scaries

You know, like the Sunday Scaries — but instead, the entire globe is running low on pretty much everything. Everything fom books to the semiconductor chips that power smartphones, cars, and more are short-stocked, and it means that this holiday season, it’s more important to actually find the products you’re looking for rather than worry about if you’re getting the cheapest deal.

With that being said, Amazon’s new early sales strategy isn’t just a ploy to get the holiday cheer going before winter hits — it’s likely in response to these global supply chain issues. For a company that prides itself in getting orders to customers super quickly, these shortages are a major concern. There’s truly no time to wait until Black Friday for everyone to start shopping, or no one will have any presents to open during the gift-giving holiday of their choosing.

Considering that availability is the name of the game this shopping holiday, the best way for consumers to avoid running into supply issues is to buy early. If you see hot-ticket items like AirPods, iPads, or gaming consoles drop in price, you’d best scoop them up while they’re still in stock — or you might have to write an IOU for a loved one’s holiday gift.

What are the best Amazon Black Friday deals?

So far, we’ve seen huge discounts on Amazon devices, robot vacuums, headphones, iPads, and kitchen gadgets. As we get closer and closer to the actual shopping holiday, we’re expecting to see sales on smart home gadgets, TVs, small kitchen appliances (like air fryers and Instant Pots), headphones, laptops, tablets, and more. We’ll probably also see some sweet gaming bundles — but if 2021 is anything like last year, Nintendo Switches and other gaming consoles will sell out fast.

Here’s a master list of the best early Black Friday deals we’ve seen on Amazon as of Nov. 12. (We’ll keep updating this list as new products get added, so be sure to check back often.)
