Macy’s says more than 1,000 of its first Black Friday deals have dropped, at up to 70% off through Nov. 28, with comforter sets at $21.99 and new deals every Friday. It still hasn’t posted its Thanksgiving week store hours.
Macy’s isn’t waiting for Thanksgiving. Or for the parade.
Macy’s Black Friday deals are live on macys.com, where the homepage says “1,000+ of our first deals have dropped.” The banner promises up to 70% off, or 25% to 70% off select styles, through Nov. 28, and Macy’s says new deals drop every Friday.
Macy’s is also running daily deals that it calls its “lowest prices of the holiday season,” through Nov. 26. Its featured prices include comforter sets at $21.99 (regularly $80 to $100), sweaters from $19.99 and holiday decor from $4.
The Krazy Coupon Lady, which updated its Macy’s guide Monday, says the early deals started Nov. 6 and new ones drop each Friday.
Here’s CBS New York’s look at the parade balloons, Sorcerer Mickey included, at Macy’s Balloonfest:

When is Macy’s Black Friday Early Access?
Macy’s hasn’t put out a 2026 Early Access release that we could find. BlackFriday.com has filed this week’s 23-page Macy’s scan as its “Black Friday Early Access 2026” ad, running Nov. 9 to 28, but the pages are Macy’s own website, which just says “Black Friday.” It isn’t a leaked print ad, and BlackFriday.com lists 137 deals from it.
Last year, Macy’s announced its plan on Nov. 6 and ran Black Friday Early Access from Nov. 10 to 13. After that came “Black Friday Starts Now” deals from Nov. 14 to 22, then Black Friday Week. Doorbusters, including in-store exclusives, landed on Black Friday itself.
This year’s first wave has already landed. Macy’s hasn’t said whether a separate Early Access event or a Black Friday doorbuster ad is coming.
Is Macy’s open on Thanksgiving 2026?
Probably not. Macy’s closed its stores on Thanksgiving last year and reopened on Black Friday from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., with hours varying by store, the company said in 2025.
The Krazy Coupon Lady says stores will be closed again this Thanksgiving. Macy’s hasn’t posted its 2026 Black Friday store hours yet, so check your local store before you set an alarm.
Online deals don’t take the holiday off. You can shop macys.com and the Macy’s app all day Thursday.
When is the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade?
Thursday, Nov. 26. It’s the 100th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and coverage runs 8:30 a.m. to noon in every time zone on NBC, Telemundo and Peacock.
The parade has a record 100 inflatables. Disney’s new Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey balloon leads the new class, with a Christmas Bluey and Universal Orlando’s first-ever balloon, Earl the Squirrel.
Macy’s site has a dedicated 100th Parade Shop. The Disney and Macy’s holiday collection has more than 100 pieces tied to past parade balloons. When it launched Oct. 7, the Sorcerer Mickey 16-inch plush was $29.99.
How do I save more at Macy’s?
A few things to know before you check out, per The Krazy Coupon Lady:
-
Shipping: free on orders of $39 or more for Star Rewards Bronze members, or $49 or more for everyone else. Store pickup is free.
-
Returns: purchases made from Oct. 5 to Dec. 31 can be returned through Jan. 31, 2027.
-
Price matching: Macy’s doesn’t match competitors’ prices.
-
Coupons: past Black Friday coupons couldn’t be combined with Specials or Bonus Offers.
Macy’s has been throwing parades since 1924. It’s been running Black Friday sales in early November for almost as long, or at least that’s how it feels.
