It's that time of the year where we're all flooded with Black Friday this + Cyber Monday that. It's only Monday and my email list is a mile long, lol. It can be a little overwhelming but I'm not one to miss a great deal when it comes to holiday shopping. Now is usually when I start to do my gift shopping + wherever I can save, I will shop. I've rounded up my favorite deals + the stores that I plan to shop at this year.
I also did a little comparison to last year's post and to my *pleasant* surprise, most stores are offering the same discount amount off that they did in previous years. While I'm sure most of them have higher prices due to inflation, I still appreciate that most haven't lowered the discount. Every little bit adds up + helps stretch your dollars further.
Also a quick reminder-- if you don't use Rakuten, you're leaving money on the table. It's a cash back site that lets you earn money back on purchases made at thousands of stores (think Target, Wal-mart, Sam's, Nordstrom, Macy's, etc.) You can typically earn 1-5% back at most big box stores but often up to 10-15% back at major departments stores. I would keep a watch this upcoming weekend for cash back deals-- usually they double or triple the cash back on major holiday weekends. I'm also guessing it'll be a little bit better on Cyber Monday, too.
If you've never signed up and want to use my affiliate link, Rakuten will give us both a $40 bonus after you make your first purchase of $40 or more. Aka, spend $40, get $40 back. You can shop anywhere you'd like + you'll earn cash back on top of the bonus. It's a great deal + a must if you online shop. I've been a member for years (it's free to join) and have earned back close to $1000 now. I'll link my affiliate sign-up here.
BEST BLACK FRIDAY + CYBER MONDAY DEALS
Usually the discounts at
Abercrombie don't exceed 25% off so 30% off site wide is a great time to shop. I'm a big fan of their jeans + staples (bodysuits, tees, etc.).
I always look forward to shopping around major holidays because that means
Agent Nateur is on sale! I adore following Jena Covello (the founder) and all of the Agent products I've used.
+ Amazon (daily deals site wide) Amazon is always a great go-to if you're looking for electronics or name-brand appliances, etc. They have a ton of specials site wide!
I adore
Anthropologie during the holidays. They have a great curated selection of holiday decor, gifts + more. I have a few mugs + ornaments on my list! Right now they have 30% off of a ton of items in-store and site wide.
I'm keeping a watch for this one! Right now they've been doing $25 off every $100 purchase through 11/21. I'm guessing it'll go to 25% off site wide through the weekend but I'll keep you posted.
+ Free People (20% off orders, 25% off all overs of $500 or more; free express shipping on all orders) + Macy's (lots of discounted specials + deals for the weekend) I always feel like
Macy's is slept on! Every year I usually find myself ordering something there during the holidays. They always have great deals on beauty + Tommy Bahama items which I buy for my dad!
+ Nécessaire (Full size The Body Serum free with purchase) This year,
Nécessaire is offering a free full side The Body Serum with every purchase. If you spend over $125, you're also eligible for a free full size The Body Oil. I really love their hand cream! It's full of peptides + is very hydrating.
You can never go wrong shopping at
Nordstrom. Whether you're shopping for women, men, kids, beauty or home items, all your bases are covered. I also love that they sell a mix of affordable items + high end designers.
+ Old Navy (typically 50% off site wide) I haven't seen an official email, however
Old Navy almost always does 50% off the whole store for Black Friday + Cyber Monday. They also usually run some deals on specific items like pajamas, etc. I love their
7/8 compression leggings which are on my list!
+ Oura Ring ($50 off select rings + first month of membership free) If you've been thinking about buying an Oura Ring, now is a great time to buy. They are offering $50 off select rings which is what I used when I purchased mine. You also can get your first month of membership free.
+ QVC (daily deals, free shipping on Black Friday specials + special interest free financing offers) I love to shop on QVC! They have a lot of my favorite brands including Barefoot Dreams, Spanx, high-end beauty + more. They also have so many categories from clothing to electronics which makes it a great place to shop for gifts.
If you're looking for something that sparkles, the Ring Concierge is your go to. They have the most beautiful fine jewelry designs-- earrings, accent rings all the way up to engagement rings. I love their modern designs + that they have both affordable options and investment pieces.
+ Saie Beauty (25% off site wide with code SAIESFAVES, free shipping over $30 + a free mascara on orders over $50)Saie Beauty is a great clean makeup brand which I love. I have their Slip Tint but have been wanting to try their
Glowy Super Gel +
Primer.
There are some gorgeous holiday nails on Static right now. Everything is up to 50% off which is a great buy.
+ Target (up to 40% off clothing, 25% off holiday beauty sets, buy 2, get 1 free movies/books/music + more) Target has a ton of holiday deals this year. Everything from electronics, clothing, beauty + appliances is on sale. I love to stock up on the essentials here: pajamas, socks, holiday snacks, etc.
