The best Black Friday deals under $50: Save up to 75% at Amazon, Walmart, Target, Nordstrom and more

We won’t lie: We love this time of the year. And no, we’re not talking because the holidays are quickly approaching. We’re talking all the Black Friday sales that continue to drop with each passing day. And considering November is host to the year’s biggest savings events, you could say we shopping editors are in our element. While in past years you may have waited for Black Friday to officially kicks off the day after thanksgiving, we’re seeing tons of early Black Friday deals worth checking out now, well before the Turkey Day tryptophan makes you want to do nothing more than settle in for a nice nap. On top of that, we’ve spotted a slew of items for less than $50, so you can get some gift shopping done early without breaking the bank.

Now, as people who know the retail landscape like the backs of our hands, we’ll be honest with you: Not all markdowns are created equal. Original prices are often boosted to make it seem like you’re saving more than you really are, and unless you’re as familiar with these products as we are, it can be difficult to decipher which deals are the real, well, deals.

But we’re here to guide you every step of the way, with regular price updates and comparisons across retailers to ensure we’re sharing only the best of the best discounts. So, ready to see what you can score for a steal? Keep scrolling, and happy saving!

This nifty contraption is a fave of Yahoo staff and readers alike. Says one editor: “I was skeptical at first. After all, I was used to spending a lot of time crafting breakfast sandwiches. But after using this device once, I was hooked. It pristinely cooked every element of the sandwich — even the egg! The ham was smoky and warm, the cheese was perfectly melted and the egg was the ideal level of gooeyness. Plus, my English muffin didn’t get soggy.”

It’s not often on sale, and this is about as low as we’ve ever seen it marked down to (it currently beats Amazon’s price, and you’ll get free shipping with your Circle 360 membership). It makes a fun gift, hint-hint!

Rise and grind! Just kidding — with this top-selling Keurig, making coffee is as simple as filling the tank with water, popping in a K-Cup of your choice and pressing a button.

Let’s face it, mornings can be hectic, and the last thing you need as you’re rushing around is an involved java-making process. This speedy brewer takes all the work out, and it’s down to an insane $30 (50% off).

Yahoo Gifting Editor Amanda Garrity routinely leads us to scads of inspired ideas, including this fun option, which is down to one of its best prices of all time.

“Invite Elsa, Tiana, Ariel, Mirabel and Moana to your holiday table,” she says. “Build a small scene for each princess — including Ariel’s undersea palace — then flip over the box to play the built-in board game with up to five other Disney fans.”

Lululemon

Lululemon sales are rare, which is why you’d be wise to snag this highly rated sports bra while it’s nearly $20 off. It offers medium support for cups up to size C, and the sweat-wicking fabric will help keep things dry during your workout. 

Functionality and comfort aside, we also love the chic crisscross straps and flattering V-neck cut. It comes in three neutrals, so go ahead and stock up.

Yard in need of some heavy-duty pruning? This small but mighty chainsaw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. Plus, this No. 1 bestseller is cordless for even more convenience, and the on-page coupon brings it down to its all-time lowest price. 

One Yahoo editor gave it a try, saying, “While testing the Saker, I first noticed that it was very easy to hold in one hand. I also appreciated the safety features, including a safety lock that must be pressed before the saw activates. This gave me some comfort that it wouldn’t just ‘go off’ if I squeezed it too tight while walking between locations. It’s also easier to use than something like pruning shears, which can be heavy and unwieldy and take much longer to get the same job done.”

Amazon Essentials

There’s a reason this comfy coat is an Amazon No. 1 bestseller — several reasons, in fact. For starters, it’s lightweight enough to pack on trips, but has ample insulation to keep you toasty on chilly days. Plus, it’s less bulky than thicker jackets and is ideal for layering over your favorite sweaters and turtlenecks. 

At nearly 40% off, this is as low as it’s been since spring, and we don’t anticipate it dipping any lower this season… (Note: prices vary depending on color and size.)

We know what you’re thinking: “Do I really need a bidet?” And if you’re perfectly content shelling out for TP and wiping your bum with a scratchy sheet of paper that does a questionable job at best, the answer is no.

But, in the event that you’re ready to improve your backside hygiene game, this easy-install accessory is a total game changer. Not only is it more thorough than wiping, it’ll also make you feel like you’re getting a spa treatment. It’s over 75% off — and while we’ve yet to see it listed for the “original price,” this is still as low as it’s ever been.

This timeless game will keep anyone ages 6 and up entertained on those blustery days when it’s just too cold to go outside … and there are a lot of those on the horizon. The rules are simple: You and your opponent choose a color (red or yellow), then take turns sliding your medallions through the slots at the top of the grid. The first to get four of their medallions in a row wins!

At just $5, this is a gift you can snag for every child (or kid at heart) you know.

This versatile skillet ain’t no flash in the pan — it’s been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor’s kitchen for years. Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook. 

It’s also dishwasher-safe, but our editor says, “Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle.” It’s currently down to the best price we’ve seen all year.

Senior Tech Deals Writer Chris McGraw says, “These widely compatible smart plugs work with almost all smart-home services outside of HomeKit (and even that can be configured through IFTTT), but the true selling point is the fact that you get four for just $20. That’s less than $5 per plug — an absolute steal with how useful these little gadgets actually are.”

This is as low as we’ve seen them drop in years, and they make cool stocking stuffers!

This highly rated machine, which is by one of the top names in humidifiers, will help spare you from the dreaded dry air blues this winter. What sets it apart is its smart auto mode, which allows you to set your preferred humidity level and maintains it for you. 

Its large tank holds enough water to service 376 square feet of space for about five nights (less refilling!), and if you want the room to smell like your favorite scent, just add some essential oils and it’ll act as a diffuser. Plus, it’s ideal for nighttime use, as it has whisper-quiet and all-lights-off features. This is as low as it’s been since 2021!

Cashmere sweaters might be out of our price range, but these lovely accessories fall right within budget. Shoppers describe them as being “very soft,” “very elegant” and “sumptuously cozy,” and they’ll make braving the harsh winter weather feel a little more luxurious.

Bigger isn’t always better, and this compact crusher is proof. It weighs less than 2 pounds and holds just enough for a single serving. But the coolest part? It’s battery-powered, meaning you can whiz up refreshing beverages on the go. 

Designed to fit in most cupholders, this blitzer can accompany you on road trips, to the gym, the office … just about anywhere. Toss in your ingredients and blend away en route to work — that’ll give you a few more minutes of shut-eye in the morning. (Psst: It’s technically $49.99, so it just made the cut by a cent!)

This little wonder might be one of the most aesthetically pleasing household appliances we’ve come across, with its wooden legs and minimalist design. But while it might look like a million bucks, it’s currently down to its best price in months. Plus, it can help lower your heating bill!

In spite of its compact size, it’s quite powerful. It has two heat modes — 1000-watt high heat and 600-watt medium heat, both of which take just seconds to kick in. But it also has a cooling fan mode, meaning this isn’t a machine you’ll only pull out for a few months.

At 6.3 inches tall and just over 2 pounds, it’s incredibly portable, making it a cinch to bring from room to room. And, most importantly, its safety features include overheating protection, as well as automatic shutoff should it tip over.
