Amazon kicks off Black Friday deals starting November 19
Amazon has begun discounting products ahead of its official Black Friday sale period, which starts November 19, earlier than the traditional post-Thanksgiving timing. Deals already live include Sony's WH-1000XM6 headphones at their lowest Amazon price and Apple AirTags also at a record-low Amazon price, matching discounts found at Walmart and Best Buy.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Retailers moving sale start dates earlier each year suggests competition for holiday shoppers is intensifying well before Thanksgiving. Shoppers may want to compare prices across retailers since matching discounts at Walmart and Best Buy indicate these are industry-wide promotions rather than Amazon-exclusive bargains.
- Amazon's Black Friday sale begins November 19, earlier than the usual post-Thanksgiving timing.
- Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones and Apple AirTags are already discounted to their lowest Amazon prices.
- Matching deals at Walmart and Best Buy suggest these are broader seasonal price drops, not Amazon-only offers.
