How to Shop the Home Depot Black Friday Sale in 2026

November is packed with Black Friday deals at The Home Depot — and after studying past sale patterns, we expect a similar Home Depot's sale schedule in 2026. In 2025, the first wave ran Nov. 6 - 26, followed by a second wave right around Thanksgiving.

Home Depot’s Black Friday sale is separate from their usual fall savings events. They’ve turned what used to be a 1-weekend sale into a multiweek holiday shopping marathon, but the best Black Friday deals still hit around Thanksgiving weekend.

Here are the predicted dates you’ll want to keep an eye on for 2026:

• Nov. 5 - 25: First wave of Black Friday deals

• Nov. 26 - Dec. 2: Second wave of Black Friday deals
