Black Friday tech shopping in the US is no longer a one-day event. Best Buy has already set its holiday calendar, with the first DoorBOOsters on October 30 and Early Black Friday Deals beginning November 6. Walmart joins on November 12 with the first of three holiday shopping events. Prices and availability can change quickly, especially on Apple, Samsung and Beats products.
Why November 27 is too late to start watching
Best Buy opened the season with DoorBOOsters on Friday, October 30. From November 6, the retailer begins Early Black Friday Deals and Doorbusters, with fresh offers arriving every Friday.
The main Black Friday Doorbusters and Deals at Best Buy begin November 19 and run for 10 days. After that, the retailer moves into Cyber Week Deals from December 1 through December 6, so the tech sale window stretches across much of November and early December.
For shoppers ordering from Russia, the practical move is to watch prices early across several US stores. Some strong offers may appear before the main Black Friday weekend even begins.
- October 30 — first Best Buy DoorBOOsters
- November 6 — Best Buy Early Black Friday Deals begin
- November 19 — Best Buy main Black Friday Deals begin
- December 1–6 — Best Buy Cyber Week Deals

Walmart joins the race on November 12
Walmart announced three holiday shopping events running from November 12 through December 2. The first event, Early Black Friday Deals, runs November 12–15, with online deals starting at 12:01 a.m. ET and store deals beginning at 6 a.m. local time.
Walmart+ members get early access to selected hot deal drops on November 12. Remaining items open to all customers on November 13, also from 12:01 a.m. ET.
Walmart’s main Black Friday Deals run November 23–29. Online deals start before the in-store event opens on November 27, so waiting for that date may mean missing earlier online offers.
- November 12–15 — Walmart Early Black Friday Deals
- November 23–29 — Walmart Black Friday Deals
- November 30–December 2 — Walmart Cyber Monday
- Walmart+ gets early access to selected deal drops
Tech deals that are already showing up
Early roundups from 9to5Toys show that Apple discounts are already appearing. Examples include AirPods Pro 3 at $199, down from $249, and AirPods Max 2 at $449, down from $549.
AirTag 2 was listed at $24, down from $29, while a 4-pack of AirTag 2 was listed at $70, down from $99; 9to5Toys described these as matching all-time-low pricing. Early Apple computer deals also included the M6 Mac mini with 16GB/256GB at $780, down from $899, and the 16GB/512GB version at $950, down from $1,099.
Best Buy’s Black Friday month also included up to $400 off select Samsung Galaxy phones and up to $100 off select Beats headphones. Always check the exact model: a discount may apply only to specific colors, storage options or configurations.
- AirPods Pro 3 — $199, down from $249
- AirPods Max 2 — $449, down from $549
- AirTag 2 — $24, down from $29
- AirTag 2 4-pack — $70, down from $99

How to track prices without rushing
During early Black Friday, the headline discount is only part of the story. The same product can appear at Best Buy, Walmart, Apple, Amazon, Target and other US stores with different availability, colors and purchase terms.
Also check whether the benefit depends on a paid membership. Best Buy Plus and Total members earn double rewards from November 19 through December 6, and Walmart+ members receive early access to some deals. For an international buyer, those perks are not always the same as direct savings.
Best Buy also has an extended return window for most purchases made from October 30 through December 31: returns are available through January 15, or January 31 for Plus and Total members. When buying from abroad, review the store’s return rules carefully before ordering electronics.
- Compare the final price across several US stores
- Check the exact model, storage, color and item condition
- Do not count membership rewards as a discount automatically
- Save the product page and order confirmation
EasyShip tip
- Before buying electronics, check compatibility: plug type, charger, supported bands and any regional service limitations.
- If you are buying several accessories for AirPods, AirTag or Mac, you can consolidate compatible orders at the EasyShip US warehouse into one parcel.
- Compare the item in EZ Mall with the same product in US stores: sometimes a catalog item is simpler, while a store purchase may have the better current price.
- Review warranty and return terms before ordering tech, because international returns can be more complicated.
Early Black Friday tech deals are already running on a schedule that starts well before late November. If AirPods, AirTag, Mac mini, Samsung Galaxy or Beats are on your list, now is the time to set target prices and check weekly drops. EasyShip can help you buy from US stores and ship purchases from its US warehouse to Russia or Belarus.
