Amazon Black Friday deals are the ones most shoppers look for first, but the best Black Friday sales online in 2026 will come from the same handful of US stores as always: Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Target, eBay and the big department stores. Black Friday itself is on 27 November, but most of these stores start their sales two to three weeks earlier. Below is a store-by-store rundown of what each one has announced, what tends to sell well there, and how you can buy from outside the US and have it shipped to you.

The short answer

Black Friday sales online now run for most of November. Best Buy starts early deals on 6 November, Walmart on 12 November, and Amazon already has early offers live. Black Friday online deals then peak over Thanksgiving weekend and Cyber Monday on 30 November.

Most of these stores deliver only to US addresses or turn down foreign cards at busy times. A free US address from Global Shopaholics solves the first problem, and our Assisted Purchase service solves the second: we buy the items for you and ship them on.

Black Friday 2026 dates by store

Best Buy: early Black Friday deals from 6 November, main Black Friday event 19 to 28 November, Cyber Sunday and Monday on 29 and 30 November.

Amazon: Black Friday on 27 November and Cyber Monday on 30 November confirmed; Black Friday Week start date not announced yet, early deals already live.

Amazon Black Friday deals

The Black Friday Amazon sale is the biggest event of its kind. Amazon is the biggest of the Black Friday stores by range. Expect strong prices on its own devices (Echo, Kindle, Fire TV, Ring), headphones, small kitchen appliances, toys and everyday basics. Lightning Deals sell out fast, and some prices are for Prime members only.

Amazon ships some products abroad but not all of them, and the “does not ship to” message is common on Black Friday bestsellers. Read our early Black Friday deals on Amazon guide and our Amazon international shipping guide to see what works from your country.

Best Buy Black Friday deals

Best Buy is the place for TVs, laptops, gaming and Apple products on Black Friday. Its Holiday Price Match Guarantee means that if Best Buy lowers the price of an item you’ve bought between 30 October and 31 December, you can ask for the difference, up to 15 January 2027 (Best Buy’s price match terms).

Best Buy doesn’t ship to most countries outside the US and often asks for a US billing address, so our team usually places these orders. More in our Best Buy Black Friday deals guide and Best Buy international shipping guide.

eBay Black Friday shopping

eBay doesn’t have one big sale, but its deals pages fill up with new and refurbished electronics, trainers and collectables. Check the seller’s rating and return policy, and whether the item is new, open-box or refurbished. Many US sellers will only post within the US, which is where a US address helps. Our eBay international shipping guide explains how.

Walmart Black Friday deals

Walmart’s three events cover TVs, laptops, toys, home and kitchen goods. Walmart+ members get some “hot deal drops” a day early. Walmart.com delivers only within the US, so international buyers use a forwarding address; see our Walmart Black Friday deals guide and Walmart shipping guide.

Other US stores with good Black Friday sales

A few more Black Friday stores worth watching:

Target: toys, home, small appliances and its own brands. See Target international shipping.
Macy’s: coats, beauty gift sets, bedding and kitchenware. See our Macy’s Black Friday guide.
Costco: bundles and bulk buys, with members-only pricing. See Costco international shipping.
Sephora and Ulta: beauty value sets. See Sephora and Ulta shipping guides.
Nordstrom and Gap: clothing and shoes. See Nordstrom and Gap shipping guides.

How to find the best Black Friday deals online

The sites with the best Black Friday deals change from product to product, so a little homework pays off. A few habits our customers use every year:

Make a short list in October and save items to your cart or wish list, so you can see when the price really drops.
Compare two or three stores for the same model number. Black Friday TVs are often special model numbers sold at one store only.
Check who the seller is on Amazon, Walmart and eBay. Marketplace sellers have their own shipping and return rules.
Read the return policy before you pay. Most stores extend it for holiday purchases, but not for every item.
Watch out for fake deal sites and links in messages. The FTC’s online shopping advice is a good checklist.

How to buy Black Friday sales online from outside the US

Step 1: Get your free US address

Sign up and you’ll get an address at our New Castle, Delaware warehouse with your own suite number. Use it as the delivery address at each store.

Step 2: Check out, or send us the links

Pay with your own card where the store accepts it. If it doesn’t, our Assisted Purchase team buys for you with a US payment method.

Step 3: We receive and log every parcel

Each parcel appears in your account when it arrives. Storage is free for up to 30 days, so you can wait for orders from several stores. Paid plans offer up to 210 days of storage.

Step 4: Combine and ship

We can consolidate your parcels into one box, which usually cuts the shipping bill a lot. Choose a carrier, add insurance if you want it (from $10, up to 2% of the declared value), and we ship to you. Get an estimate on the shipping calculator.

Orders to our warehouse usually aren’t charged US sales tax, as Delaware has none (tax-free shopping). Our processing time is 4–5 working days, and it’s a busy season, so ship Christmas gifts early. Import duty and VAT depend on your country; for the UK, see GOV.UK.

Frequently asked questions

Which US sites have the best Black Friday deals online?

Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy usually have the widest Black Friday deals online, especially on electronics, toys and home goods. Target, Macy’s, Costco and eBay are close behind. The best site depends on the product, so compare the same model number at two or three stores before you buy.

When do Black Friday sales start in 2026?

Earlier than Black Friday itself. Best Buy’s early deals start on 6 November, Walmart’s first event on 12 November, and Amazon already has early deals live. Black Friday is on 27 November 2026 and Cyber Monday on 30 November.

Are Black Friday deals better online or in store?

For international shoppers, online is the only practical option, and most big stores now put nearly all their deals online. A few doorbusters are store-only. Best Buy and Walmart stores are closed on Thanksgiving Day, but their deals carry on online.

Are Amazon Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals better?

Neither is always better. Amazon’s Black Friday week usually has the deepest prices on its own devices and popular electronics, and its Cyber Monday deals often repeat or extend them. If an item you want is at its lowest price on Black Friday, buy it then rather than risk it selling out.

Can I buy from Amazon, eBay and Best Buy and ship everything together?

Yes. Send each order to your Global Shopaholics US address. We log each parcel, then combine them into one box when you’re ready, so you pay for one international shipment instead of several.

What if a store won’t accept my card on Black Friday?

It happens a lot during big sales, because fraud checks get stricter. Use our Assisted Purchase service: send us the product links, we buy them with a US payment method, and the items come to our warehouse for shipping to you.

Do I pay US sales tax on Black Friday orders?

Usually not when the order ships to our Delaware warehouse, because Delaware has no sales tax. You may still pay import duty or VAT when the parcel reaches your country.

Can I return a Black Friday purchase from abroad?

Check the store’s holiday return policy first. If an item arrives at our warehouse damaged or wrong, we can send it back to a US seller for $15, which is much cheaper than returning it from your country.

Which Black Friday stores are best for clothing?

Macy’s, Nordstrom, Gap and other department and brand stores are strong for clothing and shoes, often with extra codes on Cyber Monday. Check the US size charts before you buy.

Can I ship orders from different stores together?

Yes. Send orders from Amazon, eBay, Best Buy and other stores to your US address, and we’ll consolidate them into one box to keep shipping costs down.
