You know how Amazon created Prime Day out of thin air and it became one of the biggest shopping days of the year? In China, mega-retailer Alibaba has done the same thing with Singles Day.
What is Singles Day? Itโs a celebration of people that arenโt in relationships. It takes place on Nov. 11 every year โ with all those ones representing the relationally unattached.
And since Alibaba introduced their massive Singles Day sales in 1993, other retailers have jumped on the trend. Singles Day is now the biggest shopping day in the world; in 2019 it had double the sales of Prime Day.
The U.S. hasnโt exactly latched onto Singles Day yet โ mostly because weโre too busy with early Black Friday sales โ but there are still some sales to pay attention to this year.
And plus, there are Veterans Day deals that overlap (because Nov. 11 is also Veteranโs Day).

AliExpress Singles Day Sale
Alibaba doesnโt have any physical stores in the U.S., but we can still shop Singles Day sales at AliExpress.com.
If youโre a first-time shopper, look out for pop-up coupons. I got two: $2 off a purchase of $3 or more and $6 off a purchase of $65 or more.
AliExpress is hyping Singles Day sales, including:
- Up to 80% off electronics and computer supplies
- Up to 54% off beauty, womenโs clothing, toys & hobbies, and fashion accessories
- Up to 67% off home appliances
- Up to 50% off jewelry & watches, hair extensions, and wigs
Keep in mind, free standard shipping will take about a month to arrive to the U.S. (from China, mostly), and premium shipping costs about $30 to get it about two weeks sooner.
