Black Friday is the time to stock up on the things you — and everyone on your list — want the most. Sure, you could go for the boring essentials, but what's the fun in that? If you're looking to stay entertained this holiday season, check out these Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 Black Friday deals.

So far, we haven't spotted any deals on Switch consoles. The best you can do is snag one of the Switch bundles, which includes popular new games like Mario Kart World or NBA 2K26. That ends up saving you a few dollars, which can go toward even more games.

Nintendo Switch deals shine when it comes to games. There's plenty of stocking fillers and backlog stuffers to choose from right now. I've also labelled which each deal is compatible with the Switch 1, Switch 2, or both consoles, so you know exactly what you're buying.

Here are all the best Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals we've spotted.

  Get Deal Why we like it

The Nintendo Switch 2 isn't getting any traditional discounts this Black Friday, per se, but that doesn't mean you can't get a good deal on one. Case in point: this bundle that nets you the Nintendo Switch 2 console itself and a copy of Mario Kart World. A Switch 2 on its own is $449, and Mario Kart World alone is $79, so you're still seeing a savings of $30 by getting the bundle. If you need the Switch 2 system itself and want something great to play along with it, this is the best bet by far. You'll get hours of entertainment out of Mario Kart World and still save some cash. Win-win! Additionally, there are similar bundles to choose from that go in and out of stock, so it's best to keep checking back if there are certain games you're looking to score alongside your system.

Nearly half off for every 2D Final Fantasy game? Yes please. There are some great quality of life upgrades spread across FF I-VI, including an updated HUD, HD character sprites, a rearranged soundtrack by original composer Nobuo Uematsu, and auto battle options. Plus, you get a free sticker sheet.

Nice button action, amazing ergonomics, and plenty of features such as complex macros, interchangeable A, B, X, and Y buttons, and adjustable triggers. It's a very close call between the Pro 3 and the Ultimate 2 from 8BitDo, and don't get me started on the Arcade stick, but the Pro 3 wins for me personally. This gets picked up over my Switch Pro controller every day of the week.

Getting twice the normal storage to plug into your Nintendo Switch 2 is a godsend if you're bringing a big Nintendo Switch library with you. This 512GB Lexar option does the job well, with $20.50 knocked off, so you're getting all of this extra storage for less than $100. That's enough room to fit an extra 20-51 Nintendo Switch 2 games between 10-25GB in size and even more Switch 1 titles.

45 of the best Black Friday Apple deals: Record-low prices on AirPods, Apple Watches, and MacBooks

Black Friday is easily the best time to buy Apple products, and as we hit Cyber Weekend, the deals are predictably great. Don't thank the Apple Store for that: Third-party retailers are the ones offering the biggest cash discounts. (Apple's 2025 Black Friday deal is just its usual free gift card promo.)

For the best selection of Apple deals, head to Amazon: At the time of writing, most of the latest AirPods, Apple Watches, iPads, and MacBooks were sitting at record-low prices there. Competitors like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target were matching some, but not all of its offers.

If you'd happily sacrifice a few current-gen features for the sake of an extra-steep discount, check out Walmart's wares. It has some exclusive deals on the three-year-old Apple Watch SE 2 (now just $129), the M1 MacBook Air (now $549), and the A14 Bionic iPad (now $349 with 256GB of storage).

And a little PSA: If you've been hesitating on buying, you should complete your purchase sooner rather than later. We've been tracking deals all day long and noticed around 5 pm EST, that some AirPods are spiking in price again. The Apple AirPods Pro 2 were down to a record low of $139, but now they're back up to $199. Plus, the AirPods 4 with ANC went from $99.99 to $109.99. Deals really don't last so grab them before they're gone.

To give you a head start on finding deals, we've scoured all of the major players' websites and rounded up the best Black Friday Apple deals below. We'll continue to update it as we get deeper into the holiday season, so keep checking back. In the meantime, here are the 45 best Apple deals as of Nov. 28.

That's its lowest price ever and $5 better than Best Buy's deal.

Fast, pretty, and portable, the 13-inch M4 MacBook Air is our favorite MacBook for students. We didn't think it would get any cheaper than $799 this season — that was its regular sale price from August to early November — but Amazon and Best Buy proved us wrong.

15+ creator-approved deals to snag during Black Friday to up your content game

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 01:44
Black Friday creator-approved deal at a glance Best mic deal DJI Mic Mini (2 transmitters + 1 receiver) $66 (save $53) Get Deal Best camera deal Insta360 X5 8K Action Camera $464.99 (save $85) Get Deal Best drone deal DJI Mini 4K Camera Drone Combo $309 (save $80) Get Deal

The world of content creation is here to stay. Whether you're a pro vlogger or just getting started with a podcast, you have endless possibilities about how you'll take off on a content creation journey. While the majority of creating content comes from brainpower and creativity, there are a few tools you'll want to help out, and tons of them are included in the best Black Friday deals.

From camera to mics to storage, content creation requires a few essential tech products that will both make your job easier as well as more streamlined. Thankfully, we have a handful of super reliable brands to fall on for all the goods needed.

Keep in mind DJI makes some of the most popular content-creator tech but the brand is having a hard time getting product into the U.S. right now. Because of that, you'll probably need to go with a third-party seller for almost anything DJI. We don't usually condone buying from third-party sellers, but DJI is an exception lately. We've only included DJI deals that come from reputable sellers that have a solid track record within the last year.

$119 Save $53   Get Deal Why we like it

If you're in the content-creator circle, you know the DJI Mic Mini has taken over. Almost every vlog, TikTok video, or YouTube stream features these tried and true mics. Mashable Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard tested out the DJI Mic Mini and found it not only easy to use, but great in terms of performance, too. "If you need any degree of portability with your mic setup, the DJI Mic Mini offers a lot of versatility, and for a great value," Allard wrote. "That makes it a solid option for making vlogs and TikToks, and for anyone who feels less than confident with their tech skills."

Thanks to Amazon's Black Friday sale, the Mic Mini with two transmitters and one receiver is on sale for only $66, down from the normal price of $119. That's a major 45% discount and the lowest price we've ever seen at Amazon.

Ready to record you next adventure in 8K? So is the Insta360 X5 8K Action Camera and thanks to Black Friday, you can snag it for the record-low price of $464.99, down from the norm of $549.99. You'll get tons of creator-approved features with this portable camera like the invisible selfie stick effect, a three-hour battery, and built-in wind guard stabilization. Insta360 also designed this model to be espeically adept at filming in low-light situations.

It's quite possible DJI will face a drone ban in the U.S. within the next few weeks. If that's the case, Black Friday could be your last change to snag a DJI drone, for a while, at least. Because of that uncertainly, Amazon's deal on the DJI Mini 4K Camera Drone Combo at 21% off is a great option. With two batteries, you'll be in line for over an hour of flight time and the 10-kilometer video transmission isn't shabby either. Plus, it's small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.

We scoured the Amazon Haul 1-cent sale and found the most useful items

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 01:30

This Black Friday, Amazon Haul is having a "1-cent sale." You heard that right… a vast swath of products on Amazon are on sale for literally 1 cent. That said, the quality and usefulness of these items are admittedly very questionable. There are a lot of listings, some like this decorative pine tree pillow that says, "I like them real thick and sprucy" (what does that even mean?). If you spend $25 on Amazon Haul at once, though, you can unlock free shipping. This means you can buy items on Haul for more than .01 cents and add items from the 1-cent sale to get free shipping. I imagine it would be hard to buy 2,500 things on Amazon Haul 1-cent sale to earn free shipping alone. Plus, there is a limit of 3 of each item per customer.

Amazon Haul is a subset of Amazon dedicated to extremely reduced-price options (usually under $20 and often under $10), with non-Prime shipping prices and speeds. If you're curious about the best Black Friday deals that are not 1 cent, Mashable's editors are super hard at work scouting out the best discounts.

Believe it or not, though, there are some exciting and potentially useful products on Amazon Haul's 1-cent sale. The best part about all of it is that the items cost literally one penny, so if you hate the item, you can return it, or you can cut your losses of one literal cent. Some useful items featured in this sale include party decorations for very specific occasions, 56 miniature grass tufts for dioramas or dollhouses, knock-off Dyson AirWrap curl attachments, and polarized replacement lenses for certain sunglasses. I will say, I do distinctly remember spending $40 for a set of shiny, helium-filled, Mylar number balloons for my friend's birthday recently. So, it could prove to be a deal to snag some decorations for 1 cent while you can.

If your interest is piqued by both the good deals and some of the super weird options, check out the list below.

Black Friday sales are officially live at retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, and some of Apple’s signature earbuds are on sale at record prices. Several retailers have slashed prices across the AirPods lineup, from entry-level AirPods to the premium AirPods Max. So, if you're looking to snag some, we've got all the details you need to score the best price.

But be warned, deals are selling out fast. As of 5 pm EST on Nov. 28, we've noticed that several great AirPods deals have increased in price. The AirPods 4 with active noise cancellation are now back up to $109.99 from their previous low of $99.99. Plus, the AirPods Pro 2 have increased to $199 from their low price of $139. That being said, our favorite AirPods deals are still available.

For the absolute lowest price on AirPods, Walmart, Target, and Amazon are leading the pack right now with a record-low price on the AirPods 4, an entry-level pair of buds. All three retailers have the price down to $69. And if you want to level up, the AirPods Pro 3 are also at their lowest price ever at $219.99, but at your pick of retailer — you can find this deal at Amazon, Target, Best Buy, and Walmart.

We've checked all the major retailers to make sure you get the best prices on AirPods, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Max products.

We've been waiting for this one: Now that Black Friday sales have begun, the base model AirPods 4 just hit a record low price of $69 at Amazon. This is a frankly absurd price for Apple wireless earbuds, which somehow have gotten more affordable in the age of inflation and tariffs. We're not sure how long this deal isn't going to stick around for. We've already seen stock drop for AirPods 4 with ANC.

AirPods Pro 3 are the very latest and most advanced pair of Apple's earbuds, and for Black Friday 2025, they just got their biggest discount yet. As of Nov. 24, the Apple AirPods Pro 3 are down to $219.99, saving you $29.01. That's not a huge discount, but it's absolutely the best price we've found on them (and don't expect it to drop significantly lower once Black Friday proper hits). The AirPods Pro 3 offer exceptional sound, even better active noise cancellation, live translation, and heart-rate monitoring. You can pick up this discount at Amazon, Target, Best Buy, and Walmart.

Apple's basic EarPods may be the cheapest of everything the company has to offer, but they're still no slouch when it comes to sound. These corded earbuds feel great and sound even better for the price, with a built-in remote that you can use to adjust volume, control music playback, and answer calls. Plus, their built-in mic makes chatting on the go feel like a dream.

Black Friday is finally here. You may not think of the Black Friday season as a time to grab outdoor gear, but you'd be surprised how many big price drops we're seeing on everything from portable power stations and outdoor speakers to coolers and hydration essentials.

We're tracking all of the best outdoor deals below as we move through Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so check back for the latest price drops.

A solid mid-range power station, the small and mighty Explorer 2000 v2 is lightweight enough (under 40 pounds) to carry with you on camping trips, boating, tailgating, and other outdoor adventures. It's also equipped with 2,042Wh capacity, which makes it powerful enough to serve as a home battery backup in emergencies as well. That's enough power to keep your fridge running for over a day, heat up a meal in the microwave, and brew plenty of cups of coffee. It packs three AC outlets, one USB-A port, and two USB-C ports, as well as a built-in light and super-charge emergency mode on board for a variety of needs. With $800 off, it's down to its best price on record during Black Friday.

A quality Bluetooth speaker makes a great companion in the great outdoors and the JBL Charge 6 is our favorite. It's powerful enough to be used for an outdoor party, but still lightweight enough at just 2 pounds to tote around. It even comes with a handy removable strap for ultra portability. Plus, as its name suggests, it can charge other devices via USB-C. We don't love that it's $20 more than its predecessor at $199.95, but this Black Friday deal drops it to a more palatable $129.95 at both Amazon and Best Buy.

The best Black Friday Pop Mart deals: This holiday surprise bundle guarantees you a Labubu at a major discount

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 00:01
A peek at the best Black Friday Pop Mart deals so far Opens in a new window Credit: Pop Mart Best Pop Mart deal: Spend $300, save $100 with code BF004 Includes Skullpanda, Crybaby, and The Monsters Why So Serious series Shop Now Opens in a new window Credit: Pop Mart More Pop Mart Black Friday coupons Save between $9 and $55 when you spend between $90 and $110 (excluding Labubus) Shop Now

Finding real Labubus and other Pop Mart favorites in stock has been an Olympic sport for the past year. Now, Google has confirmed that Labubus were one of the 100 top-searched gifts of 2025 — so you can probably only imagine just how chaotic the realm of fake Pop Mart Black Friday deals could get. The only way to ensure you're getting legit Pop Mart merch is to buy from Pop Mart itself — and yes, Pop Mart is having a Black Friday sale.

Now that Black Friday is well underway, deals are moving fast with coupons and mystery boxes dropping every couple of hours. Three coupons pop up on the Black Friday landing page: save $50 when you spend $100, save $16 when you spend $80, and save $6 when you spend $60. But after a little digging in the "My Coupons" section of your profile, you'll find that only certain items work with certain coupons. Much to everyone on Reddit's disappointment, no, Pop Mart is not letting you pick out $110 worth of Labubus or SkullPandas and then handing you a $55 discount.

The best discount on The Monsters so far Opens in a new window Credit: Pop Mart Holiday Surprise Plush Treat Box $89.99 at Pop Mart
Limited stock available. Get Deal

Pop Mart is about to drop their best Black Friday deal yet at 6 pm EST. The Holiday Surprise Plush Treat box includes a mix of Pop Mart merch but most importantly, you're guaranteed to get at least one of The Monsters. The box will include a mix of Pop Mart options from three different product groups which include The Monsters, Skullpandas, and Crybabys. While each box has a different monetary value, by our calculations, each one is worth at least $130 meaning you're saving at least $40.

Supplies will be extremely limited and will sell out fast so grab one while you can.

The Monsters are eligible for this one Pop Mart discount code

There actually is one hidden Pop Mart promo code that unlocks discounts on viral characters, including The Monsters. The "special offers" section in the "Black Friday deals tab" across the top holds a glorious $100 off $300+ deal, and popular series like Skullpanda You Found Me!, Crybaby Crying Again, and The Monsters Why So Serious are all eligible. You just have to get your cart to $300 and enter code BF001.

This code changes daily, but the deal will likely be the same until Pop Mart drops more deals on Nov. 28. It's specifically noted that a "50% off special picks" deal is coming to the items in this collection. No Labubus are eligible as of Nov. 25, but we have a reason to be hopeful for Labubu deals: If you Google "Pop Mart Black Friday," the official Pop Mart result that pops up mentions "exclusive discounts on Labubu."

SEE ALSO: 30+ trendy gifts for teen girls in 2025, according to teenage girls IRL and online

The good news is that you can still unlock a free exclusive item by spending a certain amount of money, regardless of which coupon your cart items fall under. Orders over $99 unlock a free Crybaby Crying for Love series storage bag, and orders over $199 unlock a free Crybaby Crying for Love series jewelry box. Both items are only available for the Black Friday sale and cannot be purchased separately.

Where else can you buy Pop Mart merch online?

It's quite possible that you'll be able to find Black Friday Pop Mart deals at the official Amazon Pop Mart Store and at Urban Outfitters, where Pop Mart is also selling officially licensed merch, including Crybaby, Skullpanda, Peach Riot, and The Monsters. If an item you want sells out on Pop Mart's website, there may still be stock at either of these retailers. For example, The Monsters Fall in Wild series vinyl plush doll pendant that's sold out at Pop Mart is still in stock at Amazon for its usual $39.99.

Everything to know about Amazon Black Friday 2025: Official dates, best deals, and Prime perks

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 23:35

Black Friday season is in full swing and Amazon is already showing off with epic deals. If the influx of deals in your inbox is giving you hives, we're breaking down all of the details of Amazon's sale for you below — from when the sale starts and ends to what deals are actually worth adding to your cart.

Amazon Black Friday deals at a glance: Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones $248 (save $151.99 + get $30 Amazon credit with code SONYX30) Get Deal Amazon Kindle $79.99 (save $30) Get Deal Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 $349 (save $450) Get Deal Ninja Slushi $269.99 (save $100) Get Deal Sony ULT Field 5 $194.95 (save $155.04) Get Deal Amazon 65-inch QLED Mini-LED 4K Fire TV $894.99 (save $195) Get Deal

Black Friday is the biggest shopping event of the year. What used to be a single day on the Friday after Thanksgiving has morphed into a full-blown holiday shopping season that starts far before the holiday itself and extends through December. But we're not complaining. Having more time to sort out your finances and shop is a blessing in a time when everything is outrageously expensive.

Unlike its major competitors — Walmart, Best Buy, and Target — Amazon doesn't have a physical storefront where you can wait in line to score doorbuster deals. Amazon typically has the best prices of the bunch, and sometimes it will undercut its rivals by pennies or dollars, as if taunting them. Again, we're not complaining, because nothing beats shopping from your couch with a turkey hangover on Black Friday.

So, here's everything you need to know about the Amazon Black Friday 2025 sale, including the best Amazon deals already live.

When is the Amazon Black Friday 2025 sale?

The mega-retailer's Black Friday sale kicked off early on Thursday, Nov. 20 and will run through the end of the day Friday, Nov. 28. But most of Amazon's Black Friday deals last through Monday — by name, they'll just be called Cyber Monday deals starting Saturday, Nov. 29. (Yes, Amazon does do Cyber Monday as well.) The official Amazon Cyber Monday sale runs through Monday, Dec. 1, which is when you can consider Amazon's Black Friday sale to be over.

Does Amazon have better deals on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

Our shopping experts are unanimous — Black Friday is the best time to shop. If you're holding out for a last-minute price drop on Cyber Monday, don't hold your breath. Amazon does hold back a handful of deals for Cyber Monday (Cyber Week, really), but the biggest savings from the most popular brands will be available Friday. In fact, some products may go up in price or sell out while you're still biding your time.

The verdict: Prices are usually lowest on Black Friday itself, though most deals will linger through Cyber Monday.

SEE ALSO: Are Amazon's Cyber Monday prices better than Black Friday? Our shopping experts say the answer is clear. Best Amazon Black Friday ad highlights

Amazon doesn't release a traditional Black Friday ad like its competitors. Instead, it announces its plans for Black Friday in the form of a press release — and then proceeds to drop some of the best deals of the season when the time comes.

Officially, these are the categories Amazon highlighted in its press release, but it doesn't even include some of the top deals we've seen thus far (read on to shop those). Regardless, here's what Amazon's ad highlights include for its Black Friday sale:

  • Up to 55% off select home products from Shark and kitchen appliances from Ninja

  • Up to 50% off Amazon devices like the Echo Dot Max, Fire TV Stick lineup, Fire tablets, and Kindles

  • Up to 50% off electronics from JBL and Canon

  • Up to 45% off Bose audio

  • Up to 40% off kitchen items from Vitamix, Staub, Nespresso, and more

  • Up to 40% on select floorcare from Bissell and iRobot

  • Up to 40% off home entertainment from Hisense, TCL, and LG

  • Up to 40% on toys from Melissa & Doug, Little Tykes, Play-Doh, and Nerf

  • Up to 35% on select Samsung and Google products

  • Up to 80% off Kindle books and up to 65% off physical books

Amazon's Black Friday event is always packed with deals that range from today's best tech to kitchen appliances to toys all the kids want under the tree this year. This year is no different — we're already seeing record-low prices, beating or at least matching previous lows that we usually see during Prime Day events. We've rounded up some of the best deals we've seen at Amazon for Black Friday 2025 below, but be sure to follow along with our shopping team's full coverage for a wider range of products.

Do I need to be a Prime member to shop on Black Friday?

While some deals will be available to everyone, the best Amazon Black Friday deals are always Prime exclusives. So, if you've somehow resisted and avoided signing up for Amazon Prime until now, then you can take advantage of a 30-day free trial that will take you through the holiday shopping season. After the trial ends, you'll be charged $14.99 per month. You can also sign up for Prime Access-only plans, which gives you benefits like free shipping and returns, but no extra perks like Prime Video access.

Price check before you buy SEE ALSO: Best Buy's early Black Friday deals are live. As a shopping reporter, here's what I would buy now.

Just about every deal probably looks great upon first glance, but it's wise to do a few extra seconds of research, especially if it's a pricier investment. To confirm you're actually getting a good deal, head to camelcamelcamel to check on a product's price history. Just copy the Amazon URL into the price tracker and you'll get full stats. On occasion, Amazon can make a deal look better than it actually is by inflating the list price. On the flip side, we've also seen Amazon post the list price as something lower than the recommended MSRP, which can spell an awesome deal for Amazon shoppers. The Mashable shopping team uses camelcamelcamel daily throughout the entire year.

130+ best Black Friday deals: We found record prices on Apple Watches, OLED TVs, Legos, and Kindles

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 23:34

If your belly is full of turkey and pie, it's time to get shopping because Black Friday 2025 is here.

After weeks of anticipation, the biggest shopping event of the year has arrived, but the deals have been here for weeks. Best Buy dropped early deals and doorbusters starting Oct. 31, and Target started its first holiday savings event on Nov. 6. Now, both Walmart and Amazon have joined the fray, delivering record prices on AirPods, Apple Watches, Kindles, Legos, Ninja appliances, and Samsung TVs.

Still, Black Friday proper generally has some of the best deals you'll find throughout Cyber Week. If you're debating whether or not to wait until Cyber Monday, we recommend picking up deals sooner rather than later. With Black Friday finally here, deals are more likely to sell out quickly.

Keep this page bookmarked throughout the sale as we'll be updating this guide with the latest Black Friday deals from Amazon, Target, Walmart, Best Buy, and beyond. The major players have special daily deals you won't want to miss. And if you're overwhelmed by sorting through over 130 deals?

The 13-inch MacBook Air is down to a record-low price of $749 for Black Friday this year. This is our favorite laptop for students, thanks to its M4 silicon and slim design. This markdown is so good that even if it does happen to drop lower for Cyber Monday (and we're not counting on it), you still score a great deal without waiting for shopping chaos later this week.

However, while the new headphones are pricey (even when they're on sale), the new Bose earbuds have been marked down to $216, which is a lot more reasonable. These earbuds are supremely comfortable and feature elite active noise cancellation

"Through Dec. 1, new and returning subscribers can get 12 months of HBO Max Basic with ads for only $2.99 per month. That's just $35.88 total for the year. Since the Warner Bros. Discovery-owned streaming service just raised the cost of its Basic with ads plan in October from $9.99 to $10.99 per month, this Black Friday deal ends up saving you $96 or 73% total across 12 months.

"The past two years, HBO Max offered just six months of streaming for $2.99 per month. So not only did it double the length of the discount in 2025, but with the price hike, you'll actually be saving even more." — Christina Buff, Mashable contributor

Earlier this year, we named the excellent Roborock Saros 10R hybrid robovac the best robot vacuum of 2025. But its on-sale price of $999.99 can really hurt. Fortunately, the Narwhal Freo Pro has almost all of the same features at one-third the price. We've been very impressed with Narwhal's cleaning bots, and this model can vacuum and mop (duh), but also self-empty, self-clean, self-dry, and analyze your floor to make sure it hasn't missed a spot.

"If you're not sure what size TV to get, we consider 65 inches to be the sweet spot for most folks. While the Hisense U6 Mini LED QLED TV falls into the budget-friendly category, its specs don't scream 'budget' at all. It features a Mini LED backlight system, which means it uses smaller LEDs to deliver a brighter and more detailed picture. Plus, it packs a 144Hz native refresh rate, WiFi 6 connectivity, support for HDR in Dolby Vision, the Fire TV OS, and on-board Alexa. Our friends at PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) called it 'easily the brightest and most colorful budget-friendly TV we've tested.'" — Christina Buff, Mashable Contributor

The Ninja Slushi is a blast in any season — frozen margs in any flavor you want when it's hot, apple cider slush or gingerbread frappé when it's chilly. (Mashable Senior Shopping Reporter Leah Stodart loves her Slushi, and so do all of her friends.) A year after the first Slushi came out, Ninja released two larger capacity versions in a few fun colors. The 88-ounce model on sale for $229.99 at Amazon can make a slightly bigger batch than the original 72-ounce model, which is on sale for $249.99 at Walmart. $20 more for extra beverages and a chic green build? Sold. (If you want the purple one, it's $269.99 at Target.)

SharkNinja also showed up to the Black Friday party by offering really excellent free extras. Buying the Ninja Slushi directly from Ninja for $269.99 will give you two margarita cups and a travel tote with a combined total value of $99.

This subscription-based service offers a wide variety of movies, with specially-curated options that focus on smaller, hand-picked movies from indie releases, arthouse up-and-comers, cult classics, and more. The movies stream in HD and 4K when available, and they can be viewed anywhere from phones to tablets to TVs and more.

Turning the living room into a theater is a fantastic holiday idea, after all.

I think Apple is doing a better job when it comes to security and privacy, but there are still a few ways I like to tighten things up when I set up a new Mac.

The best Black Friday deals on Advent calendars: Save on Kiehls, Lego, Bloomingdales, and Sephora

This Lego Christmas playset comes with 24 toys in total, and it's packed with easter eggs for Star Wars fans, young and old. (BB-8 as a snowman? A Jawa in a holiday sweater? Say less.) Adults can certainly enjoy Advent calendars, but we're not sure we can enjoy them quite as much as a kid eagerly awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus.

Pulsetto’s vagal nerve stimulator is on sale for Black Friday

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 22:15

If you’re looking for a gentle method to aid with sleep regulation, tension and stress, take a closer look at Pulsetto. It’s an interesting device with some impressive claims behind it, and right now it’s at an all time low price on Amazon for Black Friday.

(was $499, save $179) Get Deal

This lightweight device utilises electrical impulses to the neck, designed to stimulate the vagus nerve. This, in turn, is a process that activates the parasympathetic nervous system. According to the manufacturer, this mechanism can reduce stress levels by approximately 28%, and anxiety levels by up to 26%, potentially giving a few moments of respite during high-activity periods.

Additionally, the device aims to support sleep regulation, with Pulsetto claiming an 18% improvement in sleep quality for its users. To use the device before bed, apply the provided conductive gel (also sold separately) and wear the device for a four-minute session, which is intended to balance the nervous system and improve focus upon waking. The device pairs with a mobile app to track biometric data, such as Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and sleep metrics.

It’s important to remember as well, that while devices such as the Pulsetto can be fantastic stress relievers, if you are suffering from a medical condition, chronic pain, or anxiety disorders, it should not be used as a replacement for medical treatment as recommended by your health care professional.

At such a huge discount, it’s a great opportunity to pick up a stress-reliever either for yourself, or for someone else in your life who could really use it.
