It’s no secret that Prime Day starts next week. However, another retail event I’m keeping my eye on is the Best Buy Black Friday in July sales event. I normally roll my eyes at Black Friday in July sales — they never live up to the hype — but Best Buy is one of my personal go-to stores for deals.
They’re also a major rival to Amazon and will likely offer very aggressive sales in an attempt to steal thunder from Prime Day. The Best Buy Black Friday in July sale will run from July 10 (Monday) through July 12 (Wednesday). Unlike Amazon, Best Buy isn’t really releasing any early deals. However, I’ve combed through a few deals that are worth calling out right now.
It’s also worth nothing that Best Buy recently revamped its My Best Buy membership programs. The free tier offers free shipping and is a no-brainer to join. However, the My Best Buy Plus membership ($49/year) gets you free 2-day shipping, access to exclusive deals, and an extended 60-day return window on most items. If you’re a frequent Best Buy shopper, this could rapidly pay for itself. There’s also a My Best Buy Plus tier ($179/year) that includes extended protection plans (including AppleCare+) and 24/7 tech support.
The Best Buy Black Friday in July sales event won’t require any membership, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some of Best Buy’s juicier deals will require at least the $49/year membership. Either way, below I’ll be rounding up the best early deals now as well as any deals worth waiting for next week.
