Amazon's early Black Friday deals are already here and we've rounded up the best ones

UPDATE: Nov. 2, 2022, 5:15 p.m. EDT This post has been updated with Amazon’s early 2022 Black Friday deals.

BEST ECHO DEAL: Echo Show 10 (3rd Gen) — $169.99 $249.99 (save $80)

BEST FIRE TABLET DEAL: Fire 7 Tablet (2022 release) — $41.99 $59.99 (save $18)

BEST FIRE TV DEAL: Amazon Fire TV 43-inch 4-Series 4K UHD Smart TV — $249.99 $369.99 (save $120)

Basically every big-box retailer (including Walmart, Target, and Best Buy) started rolling out Black Friday deals in October. While it feels way too early to talk about holiday shopping, this timing is actually pretty identical to what we saw last year, too.

Amazon’s 2022 holiday calendar is wonky for a different reason: Black Friday isn’t its first major holiday sale of the fall season.

Earlier in October, Amazon’s second Prime Day (aka the Prime Early Access Sale) brought us record lows — and possibly some of the best deals we’ll see this season – on TVs, Pelotons, robot vacuums, MacBooks, and more. It also brought competing sales from Target, Walmart, Best Buy, and Bed, Bath, and Beyond, kicking off the holiday shopping season earlier than we’ve ever seen.

If you didn’t shop early, don’t feel like you’ve missed out. Only 29% of shoppers used the Prime sale to do their holiday shopping, and 95% are planning on shopping at Amazon again through December, according to the consumer insights company Numerator.

In other words, there are still plenty of great deals coming your way. We’ll be rounding up the best of the best here so you don’t miss any, and giving you all the info you need to save this holiday season.

What we know about Black Friday 2022 at Amazon so far

Amazon’s website officially has a main page section dedicated to Early Black Friday deals (it’s small, but it’s there.) When you click on the “Today’s deals” dropdown that’s present year-round, the masthead automatically mentions that “early Black Friday deals are here.” So yep, it has started,

Amazon has also announced its holiday return policy, which extends the return window until Jan. 31 for any purchases made from now through Dec. 25.

All this to say, there are holiday-season-worthy deals going live before Black Friday. Yes, the absolute lowest savings will likely occur on or near the actual day on Nov. 25, but if you’re into avoiding chaos, buying early could be the way to go. And in the worst cases of buyer’s remorse, you can always make a return.

As we said, Amazon isn’t the only retailer that’s begun its official holiday sale way ahead of time. Target, Walmart, and Best Buy are all dropping Black Friday deals as we speak, including many items sporting an official “Black Friday price” stamp to affirm that it’s a true early deal.

As for what you’ll find at Amazon, we’ve selected a few of the best deals so far below.

Please note: All newly added deals have been marked with a ✨. Anything with a strikeout was either sold out or no longer available at the sale price as of this writing, and anything marked with a 🔥 has dropped to an all-time low price. Check back often — we’re updating this page constantly.
