Sam's Club Black Friday Sale is a 5-day event, with deals on home items, tech, toys, and gifts.
Sam's Club's Black Friday sale always runs the whole long weekend, from Thanksgiving to Cyber Monday. It features significant discounts on a wide range of products, including home items, electronics, kitchen essentials, clothing, gift cards, and toys. Savings range from 10% to 50% on popular brands and products across these categories.
KCL predicts the next Sam's Club Black Friday Sale will start on Thursday, Nov. 27, 2025.
Sam's Club hasn’t officially announced the 2025 date for their Black Friday Sale, but based on what they've done in recent years, we here at KCL predict that it’ll take place from Thursday, Nov. 27, to Monday, Dec. 1, 2025.
In the weeks before and after the big Black Friday sale, they also offer a series of Sam's Club Weekend Doorbusters, which last three days each and feature a different selection of hot, gift-worthy items (that all tend to sell out quickly).
How do we make our prediction?
In recent years, the Sam's Club Black Friday Sale has taken place over a five-day period from Thanksgiving to Cyber Monday. In 2025, that’s Nov. 27 - Dec. 1.
Sam's Club stores will be closed on Thanksgiving.
If you want to shop on Thanksgiving Day, you'll need to shop online as stores will be closed. The deals kick off 12:01 a.m. ET online (or three hours earlier if you're a Plus member).
Expect Sam's Club stores to open 10 a.m. on Black Friday (earlier for Plus members).
Sam's Club isn't one of those open-at-the-crack-of-dawn stores when it comes to Black Friday. Their doors open at the normal time (10 a.m.). However, Plus members can get in two hours early (at 8 a.m.), including on Black Friday. You can sign up for Plus membership online. It costs $110 per year, compared to regular Club membership, which is $50 per year.
Don't expect to see a Sam's Club Black Friday ad (they didn't release one in 2024).
In prior years, we got a physical copy of their Thanks-Savings Black Friday ad in our mailboxes about a week before the Black Friday sale kicked off.
But that didn't happen in 2024. Instead, they skipped the traditional ad and just did sneak peeks of the deals online a few days before the sale started.
You'll find Black Friday deals both online and in clubs, with some deals available exclusively online.
Most deals run both in-club and online. However, some deals last year were online only. For example last year's online-only deals included Sam's Club photo discounts, some furniture, mattresses, and eGift card offers. Check for "Online Only" labels on certain deals to see if they're exclusive to SamsClub.com.
Plus membership gets you some extra Black Friday perks, but it won't guarantee you deals.
Plus membership ($110 per year vs. $50 for regular Club membership) does give you some Black Friday advantages:
Early access to online deals. Sam's Club kicks off their online sale on Thanksgiving at 12:01 a.m. ET. But Plus members get access to Sam's Club online sale three hours early (so, 9:01 p.m. ET).
Early access to stores. Plus members get in at 8 a.m., while everyone else else gets in at 10 a.m.
Free shipping on orders of $50 or more.
Given that early access, do you need to spring for Plus to have any hope of buying Black Friday deals? Probably not. The only exception would be if you're after a super-hot item that's tough to find in stock. We suggest watching stock leading up to Black Friday. If something is already sold out everywhere, and you must have it, then consider springing for early access.
Another thing to keep in mind is that some really hot deals will be excluded from Plus early access anyway. In 2024, for example, we saw the discounted gift cards excluded from Plus early access.
Pay special attention to those Sam's Club Black Friday gift card deals.
Sam's Club usually offers a variety of gift cards for under face value during their Black Friday sale. They're available online only, and they usually sell out fast. So make sure they're on the top of your shopping list.
Expect all gift card specials to have purchase limits on them (usually a limit of two per person) and for them to be excluded from Plus early access.
KCL TIP: The Sam’s Club return policy won’t allow returns for gift cards, but you can return almost anything else, anytime.
Download the Sam's Club Scan & Go app to skip the lines in store.
If you’re planning to shop at Sam’s Club in person on Black Friday, make sure you download and get familiar with the Sam’s Club Scan & Go app. With the app, you’ll be able to shop without waiting in a checkout line. You’ll scan all your items as you shop, and then check out and pay through the app.
The Sam's Club Black Friday membership deal is typically 60% off for new signups only.
Both the Club level and Plus level Sam’s Club memberships tend to go on sale during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, giving you a good excuse to join as a new member for much less than the usual price.
In 2024, the Sam’s Club 1-Year Basic membership was on sale for $20 (regularly $50), which is 60% off. And the Sam’s Club 1-Year Plus membership was on sale for $60 (regularly $110), which is 45% off. We saw both of those discounts in 2023 too.
These offers are for new membership sign-ups only, and you're able to start shopping online right away using a digital membership card.
These are the top things that KCL shoppers bought at Sam's Club during Black Friday 2024.

Sam's Club Cyber Monday deals kick off the same day the Black Friday deals end.
The day before the Sam’s Club Black Friday deals are wrapping up, they kick off their Cyber Monday online-only savings. In 2025, we predict their Cyber Monday deals will be available Sunday, Nov. 30 - Monday, Dec. 1, starting at 12:01 a.m. ET on the first day of the sale. Plus members typically get access three hours early. Everything is available while supplies last, and the gift cards typically sell out quickly — like within the first day.
Sam's Club tends to offer different deals on different products for their Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. So the strategy isn't to skip Black Friday and wait for Cyber Monday. It's to watch items on your list and buy them if they go on sale during Black Friday. If they don't, check back Cyber Monday.
