They say it’s the most wonderful time of the year—and we shopping editors tend to agree. No, we’re not talking about it being vacation time; we refer to the Black Friday sales that continue to decrease with each passing day. Considering November hosts the biggest savings events of the year, you could say we’re in our element. While in years past you might have waited for Black Friday to officially start the day after Thanksgiving, we’re seeing tons of early Black Friday deals worth checking out now, well before the Turkey Day tryptophan makes you want to to do more than settle for a nice nap. On top of that, we’ve spotted a wide variety of items under $50, so you can get some gift shopping done early without breaking the bank.

Now, as people who know the retail landscape like the back of our hands, we’ll be honest with you: Not all rejections are created equal. The original prices are often inflated to make it seem like you’re saving more than you really are, and unless you’re as familiar with these products as we are, it can be difficult to decipher which deals there are the right offers.

But we’re here to guide you every step of the way with regular price updates and comparisons across retailers to ensure we only share the best of the best discounts. So ready to see what you can score for a steal? Keep scrolling and happy saving!
