Who has the best toy deals on Black Friday?
Shopping for toys can be tricky since many retailers offer excellent deals on Black Friday. However, thanks to its broad selection, Amazon is the best retailer to shop for toys. Amazon allows small businesses to use its e-commerce platform, so you can find toys you wouldn’t see sold at places like Walmart.
That’s not to say you shouldn’t shop at other retailers when looking for toys. Although their product selection isn’t nearly as extensive as Amazon’s, Walmart is a heavy hitter when it comes to toys, and we expect to see many excellent Black Friday toy deals there too.
Black Friday toy shopping tips
Shopping for Black Friday toy deals isn’t any different than shopping for other deals, but there are a few strategies you may want to use to maximize your savings ahead of the holiday season:
Don’t limit yourself to one retailer; look for deals on Amazon, Walmart, Target and any other retailer that sells toys.
Sign up for an Amazon Prime membership. Prime members are notified via email when sale ads drop, presented with exclusive offers on products and get early access to the best Black Friday deals.
Sign up for newsletters from Walmart and other retailers; that way, you stay on top of all deals and anything related to the Black Friday sale.
Shop for popular toys. Popular toys are usually expensive, but many will be heavily discounted during Black Friday. If you’re unsure which toys to shop for, look online for a list of the best toys for 2024.
Check our pages often. We regularly update our best deals pages to reflect current sales and discounts.
Look for discounts on brand-name toys. The best toy brands kids love include LEGO, Mattel, Fisher-Price, Playskool and Nintendo.
Prices listed reflect time and date of publication and are subject to change.
