Am I the only one who thought Thanksgiving was still weeks away? Well, I was sorely mistaken. The fall holiday is practically at our doorstep, which means that turkeys, pies, and yes, Black Friday sales are also nearly here.
As a shopping writer, I’m always scouring the internet for early deals, and this year, the pre-Black Friday discounts did not disappoint. Before the major sale event kicks off, Amazon has already dropped prices on thousands of fashion, beauty, home and tech items. After combing through endless pages, I found the top deals that are getting added to my cart this week, including steals from Apple, L’Oréal, Mielle Organics, and more, with prices starting at just $8.

Best Editor-Loved Early Amazon Black Friday Fashion Deals
My favorite part about living in New York City is the endless fashion inspiration. What’s not endless, however, is my budget, which is why I wait until styles go on sale before I add them to cart. Currently, I’m considering refreshing my denim collection with these Levi’s bootcut jeans, now available for $44. Not to mention, these cool-girl Adidas sneakers make the perfect everyday shoe, and they’re shockingly only $60.
Lillusory Two-Piece Lounge Set
As someone who works from home, lounge sets are a no-brainer addition to my closet. This knit crewneck top and matching pants are made of ultra-soft fabric, and the duo comes in 13 colorways, including several striped versions.
Levi’s 725 High-Rise Bootcut Jeans
While I love baggy denim, recently, I’ve been going back to more fitted pairs. These Levi’s jeans are slim through the hip and thigh and feature a leg-lengthening flared silhouette, making them both fashionable and flattering.
Adidas V1 Court 3.0 Sneakers
Although it's tempting to call these Adidas kicks trendy, I love that they’re versatile enough to wear year after year. The Court 3.0 sneakers feature suede details, cushioned insoles, and a soft textile lining. Plus, they have over 1,200 five-star ratings on Amazon, earning them a best-seller status.

Best Editor-Loved Early Amazon Black Friday Beauty Deals
With sunshine and warmth being a rarity these days, I’ve been leaning more and more into self care. Naturally, that means I’m taking advantage of Amazon’s early Black Friday beauty deals and scooping up several skin care and hair care finds. From nourishing lip balms to hydrating body lotions, upgrade your beauty drawer with the options below.
Burt’s Bees Lip Balm Stocking Stuffers
I’m extremely picky about my lip balms, but these ones from Burt’s Bees have never failed me. In fact, I’m such a fan that my mom puts them in my stocking every year. Just in time for chapped lip season, snag this $10 four-pack in fruit-inspired flavors, each formulated with various oils and butters.
Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion
One thing I refuse to deal with is ashiness, which is why I’m eyeing this Aveeno body lotion. The formula is specially designed for extra-dry skin, and it’s meant to soothe and moisturize skin without leaving it greasy. Not to mention, the packaging is partially made from recycled materials, making it a sustainable buy.
Cosrx Snail Mucin Moisturizer Gel
I’m extremely late to the K-Beauty game, so I figure I may as well see what the hype is about with this gel moisturizer. The Cosrx product has been purchased over 20,000 this past month alone, and it’s infused with snail mucin to plump and hydrate the skin.

This week, the top items on my home wish list include bedroom essentials like silk pillowcases and fuzzy throw blankets, along with a practical basket for storage. Winter is the perfect time to invest in making your space as cozy as possible, so don’t neglect this category while so many great deals are already happening.
Bedsure Satin Pillowcase
I toss and turn endlessly in my sleep, so I’m no stranger to bed head. Satin pillowcases, though, have helped me avoid unwanted frizz. This option from Bedsure comes in 37 colors and is now available for just $5.
Bedsure Ribbed Fleece Throw Blanket
Throw blankets make great last-minute gifts—because let’s be honest, you can never have enough. After grabbing one for myself, I’m considering stocking up on this fuzzy $12 option for all my loved ones this year.

Give your bedroom stylish flair with these plush pillow covers, now only $13 for a pack of two. The soft covers have zipper closures, making it easy to slip them on and off inserts when you want a change.

Best Editor-Loved Early Amazon Black Friday Tech Deals
Even if you're not in the market for big ticket tech products like a laptop or phone, a new gadget can seriously elevate your day-to-day routine. Personally, I’m eyeing accessories for my Kindle, along with a JBL portable charger, which is perfect for travel. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or the screenager in your life, Amazon’s tech department is sure to have something that piques your interest.
Idlehands Clear Kindle Case
Since buying my Kindle, I rarely leave the house without it. Naturally, it’s now got some marks to show for it. This clear case is the perfect lightweight option to avoid scratches, and it’s now on sale for 83 percent off.
JBL Go 4 Ultra-Portable Bluetooth Speaker
Whenever my best friend pulls out her JBL Go speaker, I’m always jealous I don’t own one myself. Now that this waterproof version is on sale, I’m sending it straight to my family as a not-so-subtle gift request.
Enriyo Portable Charger
As someone who travels with their phone, personal laptop, work laptop, and Kindle, a portable charger is essential. I love that this one can connect to up to six devices at once, charges quickly, and has multiple port options.
