It’s that time of year when every retailer claims their prices are the lowest ever — but if you’ve been around Slickdeals long enough, you know that not every “Black Friday deal” is actually worth your time (or your wallet).

That’s why the community is doing what it does best: cutting through the noise. Every deal posted gets voted on and discussed by thousands of real shoppers who know a good price when they see one — and aren’t afraid to call out the duds.

This year, we’ve also put together a public Black Friday 2025 spreadsheet tracking deals as they’re announced by retailers. You can easily sort, filter, and compare prices all in one place.

We’ll be updating the spreadsheet frequently, and you can follow all updates (plus discussion on standout deals) in this thread:

No marketing fluff. No fake countdowns. Just real deals — powered by a community that’s been finding them year-round.

Best Black Friday Clothing Deals

Clothing is probably the category where I wouldn’t browse by top-voted deals, to be honest. Personal taste is too big of a factor. I suggest you search for deals by your favorite store instead. You could also look for coupon codes by store, but there usually aren’t many coupons available during Black Friday since everything has already been marked down a lot.

Best Black Friday TV Deals

Remember when buying a new TV came down to whether you had the budget for a 4K TV or not? If you didn’t, you would aim for the biggest screen possible, which was like 65″ just a few years ago. Now every TV is 4K and you can get an 85″ model for less than $1,000. The best tip I can give you is to look out for models that are only available during Black Friday. They are usually the ones with the biggest discounts and our community is usually pretty good at pointing these things out in the comments section. These TVs are not necessarily bad quality, but they will lack features (or have fewer of them) that you might take for granted.
