Amazon’s “Holiday Dash” event, a series of rotating deals that began just after Amazon Prime Day ended in mid-October, has been going strong for the past month. Amazon’s Black Friday early sales event spurred other giant retailers to start their own Black Friday sales much earlier than usual this year. Amazon has yet to announce its official Black Friday or Cyber Monday promotions and deals, so Holiday Dash has proven to be a great incentive for holiday shopping this year. Right now, you can take a look at what other Amazon items might be for sale a little later in the month.

Will Amazon have Black Friday deals?
In addition to its pre-Black Friday Holiday Dash deals, Amazon will actually have Black Friday deals on the actual day. And shoppers should expect to see some extended Black Friday deals during the weekend and Cyber Monday deals during the new week.
When is Amazon Black Friday 2020?
Black Friday is an unofficial holiday recognized on the Friday after Thanksgiving, which is November 27 this year. While Amazon’s official Black Friday 2020 sale has yet to be announced, the online retailer has been offering nonstop discounts since Prime Day in mid-October. And it seems likely that their sales will continue until the end of Cyber Week, if not beyond.
When does Amazon’s Black Friday sale start?
You can shop Amazon’s Black Friday-like deals now during the retailer’s “Holiday Dash” sale, which began after Prime Day and runs through November 19. Last year, Amazon started its Black Friday sales a week before the holidays. We expect the retailer to follow suit this year and start promoting the Black Friday 2020 deals as soon as the Holiday Dash promotion officially ends. We will update this post with more information as we learn more.
What kinds of items will be for sale on Amazon on Black Friday 2020?
In 2019, notable Amazon Black Friday deals included $ 100 off Apple’s then-recent MacBook Air, $ 45 off Amazon Kindle Paperwhite, $ 69 off iRobot Roomba 675, and $ 80 off Instant Pot Duo.
You can expect similar Black Friday deals on these types of items and brands, as well as an overheating of some of the discounts we saw during Prime Day. (Think gadgets, TVs, laptops, headphones, and other tech items from Amazon, as well as deals on Amazon cookware, bedding, and brands.)
Does Amazon do Cyber Monday?
Yes, Amazon normally does Cyber Monday. For the past several years, Amazon has run a full week of deals celebrating the unofficial holiday, called Cyber Deals Week. Sometimes early access is granted to Prime members or those with Alexa devices. Expect prices similar to what you’ll see on Black Friday, with limited-time flash deals included every day to increase some of the urgency for shoppers.
Is Amazon cheaper on Black Friday?
Typically a series of Amazon Black Friday deals will carry over to Cyber Week, so we expect Amazon Black Friday and Cyber Monday prices to be very close, if not identical. (Not including limited-time lightning offers.)
Is Amazon Prime Day better than Black Friday?
Many of Amazon’s official Black Friday deals will be equal to or nearly equal to Prime Day discounts, but Prime Day may be better than Black Friday overall because of the sheer volume of sale items. For example: Last year the Kindle Paperwhite was discounted by $ 45 during Black Friday and also $ 45 during Prime Day 2020. 23andMe’s Heath + Ancestry DNA test was discounted by $ 100 from its original price of $ 199 on Black Friday last year, the same sale price you saw on Prime Day this year – The kit is currently priced the same as Prime Day and Black Friday last year at $ 99.
The Echo Show 8 was on sale for $ 30 less than its original price on Black Friday last year, but it was on sale for $ 65, half its original price during Prime Day 2020. This year, Apple AirPods with wired charging cases were on sale for $ 115 on Prime Day, $ 44 off their original price, but only $ 25 off on Black Friday last year. However, you may want to consider that these models are now a bit older in 2020 and can therefore be offered at a cheaper price.
Do you need an Amazon Prime membership to buy Black Friday deals?
You don’t have to be an Amazon Prime member to buy Amazon’s Black Friday deals, but historically Amazon has offered early access to certain deals to Prime members. While you can save on expedited shipping as a Prime member, ideal if you’re a last-minute shopper, you can still shop for Black Friday deals on Amazon without having a Prime membership.
If you are thinking of becoming an Amazon Prime member, the process is quite simple and you may be eligible for a discounted rate. You can also opt for a 30-day free trial (students can get a six-month free trial) if you want to try the service before paying $ 12.99 per month or $ 119 per year.
