You can go ahead and pick up some of your gifts early at Amazon with Ridgid Black Friday sales. Personally, I’m a fan – get great deals on tools that come with a Lifetime Service Agreement (including batteries) and sleep in next Friday. Okay, maybe not. Ridgid Black Friday deals may be starting early, but there’s reason to be in line at the store on Friday morning as well! Several options are available, including a new kit with the Gen5X Brushless Hammer Drill and Rigdid’s Heavy Duty Table Saw with Stand. While you probably won’t be able to fill your entire list with Ridgid tools, grab some of these while you’re waiting for our official 2021 Christmas Gift Guide to come out December 1st to fill in the gaps.
When is Black Friday this year?
Technically Black Friday is always the fourth Friday of November—the day after Thanksgiving. For 2021, that’s November 26. It’ll be followed by Cyber Monday on November 29.
But the real answer to the question is that Black Friday discounts could begin as soon as late October. Some are worth your attention, too. Retailers now like to sprinkle a few killer deals throughout the lead up to Black Friday week. You may be able to grab items on your list for great prices well ahead of late November.
What you need to know about Black Friday 2021
Black Friday (the Friday after Thanksgiving) is one of the biggest sale shopping events of the year, with most every major retailer offering big discounts on holiday gifts, the hottest toys of 2021, apparel, housewares, tech gadgets and more. In past years, shoppers have stayed up late the night of Thanksgiving, just to line up in front of stores for early morning openings and doorbuster deals. In light of COVID-19, many stores closed on Thanksgiving 2020, and instead offered Black Friday deals online.
This year Walmart and Target have already announced that they will close on Thanksgiving Day. It’s possible that other stores will similarly prioritize socially distanced shopping options, such as online ordering and curbside pickup, in 2021, eliminating the need to leave home early and stand in a line.
Black Friday 2021 is on Nov. 26, but sales typically start before that date. Amazon’s pre-Black Friday sale launched on Oct. 4 this year, for example. You can get deals on Alexa-enabled gadgets including the Amazon Echo Show 8, crave-worthy tech such as the Amazon Kindle e-reader and great pricing on the hottest toys of 2021 now through the end of the holiday season.
