Massive Amazon Black Friday sale live — 43 best early deals I’d buy now

Amazon Black Friday deals 2024

Thanksgiving Day is still a few weeks out, but that's not stopping Amazon from releasing its first batch of Black Friday deals. The retailer is slashing prices sitewide this weekend on everything from my favorite running shoes to the coffee machine I've been using all year.

I've been covering Amazon Black Friday deals for 17 years, and this is the time of year I do all of my major shopping, especially on expensive, big-ticket items. For example, I purchased my first OLED TV two Black Fridays ago and right now Amazon has 4K OLED TVs on sale from $896. The sale includes deals on some of 2024's top-rated TVs.

It's not just expensive items I buy in November. I also use this month to score the lowest prices on everyday gadgets, including smart home devices. One sale that jumps out at me today is the huge Amazon device sale with deals from $19. It includes your Echos and Fire TV Sticks as well as a lot of Blink home security devices.

Below I'm rounding up all of the best Amazon Black Friday deals you can get this weekend. Make sure to bookmark this page and check back often for the best sales available. I can't write about Amazon without mentioning one of its biggest rivals, so also be sure to check out our Best Buy Black Friday deals live blog for competing deals. (Looking for coupons?

The women's shoe has been reduced to under $100, while the men's shoe is going for $109, with lots of colors and sizes available for both. I've tested the Kayano 30 and the newer Asics Gel-Kayano 31, and the differences are minimal, so I'd grab the older shoe in this sale.

Alexa devices

Amazon Echo Dot (5th Gen) w/ Bulb: was $61 now $27 at Amazon US

The 5th-Gen Echo Dot is one of the best Alexa speakers you can buy in terms of value. It features crisp, full sound with built-in Eero for better Wi-Fi coverage. There's also a room temperature sensor that can initiate certain Alexa smart home routines when your climate gets too cold or hot.

In our Fire TV Stick 4K Max review, we said it's a good streaming stick at a decent price if you use Alexa a lot, but it becomes a better bargain when it's on sale.

Blink Video Doorbell System + Echo Pop bundle
Blink Video Doorbell System + Echo Pop bundle: was $109 now $87 at Amazon US

Blink's video doorbell can be installed on any doorway since it runs on battery power, but it can also be wired into your existing setup to tap into your home's chime.

It's now bundled with a free TP-Link Tapo Smart Bulb.

Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus
Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus: was $199 now $119 at Amazon US

If you have floodlight wiring then Ring's floodlight camera is a no-brainer. Its two LED floodlights pack an impressive 2000 lumens that will light up your driveway or spotlight intruders in the dark. Its 1080p camera is plenty sharp to make out details like the text on a shirt. Plus it even has a built-in 105-dB siren. Unlike the pricier Ring Floodlight Cam Pro, it lacks 5GHz Wi-Fi and the Bird's Eye View feature which marks a subject's movement along your property atop an aerial map. Otherwise, this provides steady protection with a crisp image for $80 off its regular price.

We all know that Black Friday is a great time to upgrade your Amazon hardware, but it's also a great time to stock up on apparel. Right now I'm seeing dozens of discounts on Amazon Essentials — which is Amazon's in-house apparel brand for men and women. Most of Amazon's apparel is already priced aggressively, so it's rare to see them discounted. You can shop the entire collection for men and women via the link below.

My favorite running shoes now on sale...

Asics Gel-Kayano 31 and Asics Gel Kayano 30 running shoes

(Image credit: Future)

Fall is a great season for outdoor running. Whether you're trying to get into shape or training for your first 5K, right now is a great time to pick up a new pair of running shoes. As an avid runner myself, I personally own and love the Asics Gel Kayano 30 ($99 for men, $99 for women). They were on sale during July Prime Day for $119 and I ended up buying a second pair. Now they're on sale for $99! They're designed to provide advanced stability and soft cushioning for neutral runners and overpronators alike. I've been using them for about a year and love how they're lightweight yet provide excellent cushioning and support.

Welcome to our Amazon Black Friday deals live blog! I'm Louis and I've been covering deals for 17 years now. From the first Prime Day to Cyber Monday, there isn't a sale I've missed. That said, I know what you're thinking....Black Friday is still a few weeks out. Why shop now? Well, Black Friday is no longer a one week event. To be honest, deals started last month with Amazon's fall Prime Day. Yes, it's true that some items may get cheaper in the weeks to come, but generally speaking — they won't be massively cheaper. Additionally, on this live blog I'll try to highlight items that I would personally buy right now. So that said, let's get onto the deals!
