Days Until Black Friday
A live countdown to Black Friday, the day after US Thanksgiving.
Black Friday countdown and shopping tips
Black Friday is the day after US Thanksgiving, which is the fourth Thursday of November, so it always falls on a Friday between November 23 and 29. The countdown above targets the start of that day.
Shopping tips
- Make a list first. Decide what you actually need and set a budget before browsing deals.
- Track prices now. Note today's price on items you want, so you can tell whether a sale is a real discount.
- Check return policies. Holiday purchases often have extended return windows, but not always.
- Beware of urgency tactics. A countdown on a shopping site does not mean the price will not come back.

How this countdown works
The timer counts down to midnight at the start of the day, using the time zone set on your device. Days are counted by calendar date, so the total stays right across daylight saving changes. On the day itself the page tells you it is here, and afterwards it counts down to next year.
