Editor’s note: Black Friday has ended, so we are no longer updating this post. Head to our roundup of Cyber Monday deals that are extremely good (half-off or more) for all the best deals.
I’ve said it time and time again, but anything that’s on sale for less than 20 percent off isn’t a good deal. Conversely, my baseline for a really, truly good deal is 50 percent off. It’s a discount you don’t see too often, even during major sale holidays like Black Friday — which is why I was truly delighted to find all the of the below items on sale for 50 percent off (or more!) right now. Technically, most of these deals last through the end of Cyber Week, but like all truly good deals, I anticipate that many of the products below will sell quickly. I’ll add more excellent deals as I find them, so check back. And for even more deals actually worth shopping, take a look at my extra-large roundup of all the best Black Friday sales here (of which there are nearly 300).
Update on December 1, 2024: Updated prices and checked stock for all products.
Women’s Apparel and Accessories
J.Crew’s deals got even better today—now many items are 60 percent off or more. Outdoor Voices’ sale got better todyay, too, with half off OV Extra items. Everlane is offering up to 50 percent off sitewide, so I’ve pulled all the best deals from there, too. At Anthropologie, Madewell, and Shopbop, all sale items are doubly on sale (with each site’s respective discount code), and there’s also up to half off at Alex Mill for its “Friday-ish” sale. And everything is 50 percent off at Hanna Andersson, if you need new pajamas!
Men’s Apparel and Accesssories
All of the deals I mentioned in the women’s section are applicable to men’s stuff, too. You can also take an extra 40 percent off sale items at Urban Outfitters if you’re a UO member (it’s free to sign up, all you need is an email address), leading to some very deep discounts. Huckberry has a very robust selection of men’s outerwear and accessories that’s half off.
Beauty and Wellness
Tech
There aren’t too many half-off tech deals, I’m afraid. They’re mostly at Amazon, and mostly on Amazon’s own products, but they’re all either at or lower than the Prime Day deals we saw this year.
Home and Kitchen
There are hundreds of great deals for all corners of your home, from memory-foam pillows to our best-in-class indoor garden. Again, Amazon is a good place to look for these sales, but Nordstrom has plenty to choose from, too.
Toys and Kids’ Stuff
The tricky part about toys is that, yes, you’ll find amazing deals during Black Friday, but they sell out extremely quickly. Stick to Amazon or Target, and be ready to check out fast if you see something you like. All kids’ clothing at Levi’s and Hanna Andersson is 50 percent off, so stock up on those holiday pajamas, fuzzy coats, and jeans while you can — it’s the best deal the brand offers all year!
