The early bird gets the worm — just swap the worm for a brand-new TV at a mind-blowingly low price.
Thanksgiving is fun enough to look forward to on its own, but for some shopping-savvy civilians, the main event is the day immediately following the food-fueled holiday: Black Friday, aka the biggest shopping event of the year (with Cyber Monday trailing close behind). Both days offer a ton of drool-worthy opportunities to save at your favorite stores like Nordstrom, Wayfair, Amazon, and more, but with so many deals to wade through, there’s no such thing as too much prep work. This year, the early bird gets the worm — except in this case, the worm is a brand-new TV at a mind-blowingly low price.
Gone are the days of standing in line into the wee hours of the night, then frantically scrambling through a big-box store. Not only is brick-and-mortar shopping physically taxing (and becoming extinct, incidentally), but most sales have gone digital. So while physical strength and agility aren’t as essential to this kind of shopping, you do need to be mentally prepared.
Even though we’re still weeks away from Black Friday and Cyber Monday, plenty of brands are marking down prices weeks ahead of the shopping bonanza. Below, we rounded up the best early Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales of 2024, including some that last beyond the holiday.

Reducing food waste in your home is a whole lot easier thanks to Mill.

The brand is hosting its first ever Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale this year, offering $200 off the purchase of a bin Nov. 21 through Dec. 2.
