Best Buy Black Friday 2026 ad: 10 days of doorbusters from Nov. 19

Best Buy’s early Black Friday ad is live, and the 10-day main sale starts Nov. 19, one day earlier than last year. One early standout: a 65-inch Samsung Micro RGB TV for $999.99, down from $2,099.99.

Best Buy’s Black Friday is already running in pieces, and the big one starts Thursday, Nov. 19. That’s when 10 days of Black Friday doorbusters and deals kick off, according to the holiday calendar Best Buy posted Oct. 27.

Last year’s Black Friday sale started Nov. 20, 2025, so this year’s lands one day sooner. Black Friday itself is Nov. 27.

Best Buy’s early Black Friday ad scans are live now, Mashable reported Monday, and Best Buy says more new deals drop Friday, Nov. 13. The retailer is adding new early deals every Friday until the main event.

When is Best Buy’s Black Friday sale in 2026?

Do My Best Buy members get early access?

Not that Best Buy has announced. Instead, the perks are rewards and returns. Paid My Best Buy Plus and Total members get:

  • Double rewards (2% back) on purchases from Nov. 19 through Dec. 6

  • 5% back in rewards on qualifying appliances through Dec. 2

  • A $25 rewards certificate on purchases of $500 or more, per 9to5Toys

  • Longer holiday returns: through Jan. 31, 2027, compared with Jan. 15 for everyone else

Plus and Total memberships start at $49.99 a year, MacRumors reported. Best Buy’s Holiday Price Match Guarantee also covers price drops on items sold by Best Buy during the season, with limits. Marketplace items don’t count.

What are Best Buy’s Thanksgiving and Black Friday hours?

Best Buy stores are closed on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26. Extended holiday hours started Nov. 1, and Best Buy tells shoppers to check their local store page.

Black Friday 2026 hours aren’t out yet. For comparison, stores opened at 6 a.m. and closed at 10 p.m. on Black Friday 2025, with local hours varying.

Best Buy says most deals are available both online and in stores, with a small handful sometimes in-store only. Quantities are limited, and there are no rainchecks.

What’s new at Best Buy for the holidays?

Best Buy’s holiday calendar calls out Meta smart glasses, RGB LED TVs, the Oura Ring 5 and Nvidia RTX Spark PCs as big gifts this year. On the gaming shelf, it name-checks Grand Theft Auto VI and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

“Everyone does their holiday shopping a little differently,” said Patrick McGinnis, Best Buy’s chief revenue officer. Some people shop on Nov. 6. Some people shop on Dec. 24 in the parking lot. Best Buy has a sale for both.
