SMART HOME This Black Friday, Lowe’s is stepping up its game in the smart home department, boasting great deals within this category. For example, the price of the second generation Google Nest Mini has dropped from $49 to $18.99, a whopping $30 discount. Its larger alternative, the original Google Nest Hub, is marked down to $49.99 from an original $89.99, netting $40 dollars in savings. Lowe’s is also having huge discounts on the Ring home security system, dropping the price from $249.99 to $149.99.
FASHION Historically, Black Friday has been an important day for fashion lovers, and this year is no different. At Kohl’s, all golf clothes for men are 25% off. Macy’s is also giving major discounts for Black Friday, most notably on coats and blazers. All women’s coats are 60% off, and many Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger sports coats for men have been marked down from prices of over $295 to the $69.99 to $79.99 range. Men’s suits are also discounted, with the best deal being the Alfani Performance Suit at $129.99 compared to its normal price of $500.
TECH Many retailers are offering deals on technology all through the month of November. One of the best is Amazon’s deal on AirPod Pros. These next generation AirPods include a charging case, three different silicone ear pieces to ensure a correct fit and the two AirPods themselves. The AirPods allow you to enable noise cancellation mode and an assortment of new features with Apple’s continually updating operating system. AirPod Pros are normally priced at $249, but Amazon has slashed the price down to $194. Buyers are still able to purchase an Apple protection plan for $29, even without buying directly through Apple.

The shops where you can get the best deals, by percentage
Peloton is leading the charge for fitness equipment deals by knocking their stationary bike down from a steep $2,245 to a slightly more manageable $1,895, which is a $350 difference. This deal is slightly unorthodox from traditional Black Friday deals, as the company has decided to reduce the price in early November instead of waiting and trying to compete with others during the Black Friday price cuts. Additionally, this deal is a bigger price cut than the 2019 deal on the same item, so the product is definitely worth considering for anyone interested in purchasing fitness equipment anytime soon.
