Tips on How to Make Your Deal Shopping a Success

Shopping Options: Deals are available online and in stores. If you shop online, shipping is free on orders of $35 or more, but if you're a My Best Buy member (yes, even at the free level), shipping is free on all orders.
Doorbusters: Best Buy has doorbusters both online and in stores. For Best Buy, "doorbusters" means deals at super-low prices in low supply (you don't actually have to go to a store to get them).
Holiday Policies: While Best Buy usually offers price matching on competitors within 15 days of purchase, it doesn't do so from the Friday before Thanksgiving through the Monday after.
Holiday Price Match Guarantee: During the holiday season (dates haven't been announced), Best Buy refunds you the difference if its own price drops after you bought something. Last year, the holiday price guarantee was in effect Nov. 1 - Dec. 31.
Holiday Extended Returns: Best Buy's special holiday return policy means that most items you buy between Oct. 31 and Dec. 31 can be returned through Jan. 15. Plus and Total members can return through Jan. 31.
Cyber Monday Sale: This year, Cyber Monday at Best Buy runs for two days (Nov. 30 and Dec. 1). Best Buy Black Friday and Cyber Monday are usually pretty similar when it comes to deals. However, in 2024, there was at least one item that got cheaper on Cyber Monday compared to Black Friday — this HP Chromebook Laptop. It went on sale for $149 (regularly $299) during Black Friday, then dropped to $129 for Cyber Monday.
