Black Friday in Canada isn’t nearly as hectic as it can be in America — and that’s both a good and a bad thing. While it’s no fun seeing so many deals unavailable in our country, it’s also pretty nice not feeling inundated with too many options. Here in Canada, finding the best Black Friday deals is just a bit easier than it can be elsewhere.
We’re seeing a much different Black Friday in 2020. This year, retailers are seeking to keep their stores from becoming overcrowded, so rather than offering deals all during the end of November, we’re instead seeing offers all throughout the month. This year’s sale also happens to be one of the best because we’re seeing more online offers than ever before as well, meaning there is a better chance of being able to shop from home without missing any of the best deals.
Now that sales are already beginning to go live, it’s time to start saving! Shopping sooner is always better than later when it comes to the holidays, after all. We’ll be gathering all the best Black Friday deals in Canada as they go live and posting them all below to make Black Friday shopping a breeze.
This list is being updated with new Black Friday deals all the time, so check back often.

When is Black Friday 2020?
Black Friday is always the day after Thanksgiving in the United States, which means this year the holiday lands on November 27. However, retailers are holding their Black Friday sales much differently this year. We’re already seeing sales go live in early November and more offers coming weekly rather than at the end of the month. Now is truly the time to start shopping!
When do Black Friday deals start?
Right now! Black Friday deals are already going live at retailers across Canada, including both online and in-store offers! Each retailer is different in how it will be running its sale, but we’ll be sure to keep the list above updated with any new deals as soon as more worthwhile options are discovered.
