Brookstone’s Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

Leave a comment

Here’s what to expect from Brookstone’s Black Friday 2025 sale, including when to shop and what kinds of deals will likely be available.

When Will Brookstone’s Black Friday 2025 Sale Likely Start?

Brookstone is expected to follow a two-phase approach for its 2025 Black Friday deals:

  1. Pre-Black Friday Sale – Expected to begin Saturday, November 22, 2025 (that’s 5 days before Thanksgiving).

    • Early deals will likely launch online and in stores, featuring discounts on select products. These sales usually serve as a preview of the main event, with some items already seeing major price cuts.

  2. Black Friday to Cyber Monday – Friday, November 28, 2025 to Monday, December 1, 2025.

    • The biggest discounts are expected to drop on November 28, which is Black Friday itself. Deals will likely continue throughout the weekend, ending on Cyber Monday.

The sale is expected to run both online and in-store.

How Big Will the Discounts Be?

Brookstone has been known to offer some of its steepest discounts during Black Friday, with some items marked down by as much as 80%. However, the size of the discount will depend on the product category. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect:

  • Gadgets & Tech: Expect discounts in the range of 20% to 60% off on electronic items like alarm clocks, smart home accessories, and other Brookstone-branded tech gadgets.
  • Massagers & Wellness Products: These tend to be 30% to 50% off, with some clearance models seeing even bigger price cuts.
  • Luggage & Travel Accessories: Discounts on travel gear may range from 40% to 70%, particularly on Brookstone’s popular suitcases and travel pillows.
  • Novelty & Gift Items: Some fun or seasonal gift items could be discounted 50% to 80%, making them an easy choice for holiday shopping.

It’s important to remember that not all products will get the full 80% discount—that number will likely apply to select clearance or overstock items. The best-selling and newer items may see more moderate discounts, usually in the 20% to 50% range. You can see some of last year’s sale highlights in last year’s ad posted below.

What Are the Best Items to Buy?

If you’re looking to get the most value out of Brookstone’s Black Friday sale, here are some product categories worth checking out:

1. Massagers & Personal Care Devices

Brookstone is known for its massage chairs, handheld massagers, and foot spas, which are some of the most popular Black Friday buys. Expect solid discounts on these products, especially on older models.

2. Smart Home & Tech Gadgets

Brookstone’s selection of wireless speakers, alarm clocks, and home automation accessories often sees decent markdowns. These items also tend to sell out quickly, so shopping early is recommended.

3. Travel & Luggage Deals

Brookstone’s carry-on luggage, travel pillows, and suitcases usually get substantial Black Friday price cuts. If you travel frequently, this is a good time to upgrade your gear.

4. Unique Gift Items & Holiday Accessories

Brookstone carries a variety of novelty gifts, stocking stuffers, and quirky gadgets. Many of these will likely be included in the deeper-discount section of the sale.

Brooks Running Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

7 Comments

Brooks Running Black Friday 2025 is just around the corner and it’s usually a pretty good time to score discounts on shoes, apparel, and accessories. Here’s everything you can expect from the upcoming sale, including start and end dates, discount details, what to buy, and important terms to keep in mind.

Key Dates for the Brooks Running Black Friday 2025 Sale

Brooks Running Black Friday Sale for 2025 is expected to begin on Friday, November 21, 2025, a full week before Black Friday itself, exclusively at brooksrunning.com.  The event is will likely run to the end of day on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, which is the day after Cyber Monday (these predictions are based off of last year’s sale dates).

Expected Discount Levels

Brooks Running typically offers up to 35% off select footwear, apparel, and accessories during their Black Friday sale. However, these discounts are not site-wide, which means only certain pre-determined products will be eligible for discounts. The exact items included in the sale won’t be known until the event begins, but in previous years, popular shoes and apparel have been part of the sale.

Possible Free Gift with Purchase

As the sale gets closer to Thanksgiving weekend, there’s a chance they will ad a free gift with purchase. Last year, Brooks Running offered a free pair of socks or a free water bottle when you spent $140 or more on eligible items. It’s likely that a similar offer will be available in 2025, so if you plan on making a larger purchase, keep an eye out for free gifts to sweeten the deal over the long weekend.

However, the free gift promotion will likely be available for a limited time or while supplies last, so it’s a good idea to act fast if you’re hoping to take advantage of it.

Exclusions from the Sale

As with most sales, there are a few exclusions to be aware of during the Brooks Running Black Friday Sale. Here are the most important:

  • Licensed Apparel: Any officially licensed items, such as team jerseys, probably won’t be included in the sale. So, if you’re hoping to snag a discount on licensed Brooks Running apparel, you’ll need to look elsewhere.

  • Brooks Running Factory Outlet Locations: The discounts offered during the Black Friday sale will only be available on the Brooks Running website. They will not be available at physical Brooks Running stores or Factory Outlet locations.

  • Specific Product Exclusions: As mentioned earlier, discounts are not offered site-wide. Instead, they apply to select, pre-determined items. This means that popular or newer models might not be included in the sale. You’ll need to check the website during the sale to see which items are eligible.
