The Best Tech Deals From Best Buy's Cyber Monday Sale

Best Buy was the retailer with the best tech deals on Black Friday, and they are keeping my vote for my favorite retailer with the best deals for Cyber Monday.

Best Buy’s Cyber Monday deals are underway

The physical Best Buy stores are open on Cyber Monday and will also have in-store deals available. Here is what they’re doing for Cyber Monday:

  • Nov. 26 and 27: On Sunday, Nov. 26, Best Buy will kick off their Cyber Monday savings event. This sale will be in-store and online.

Best Cyber Monday deals at Best Buy right now

Remember that not all deals are as good as they look on paper. I noticed two of their front-page TV deals, the LG 48″ Class A2 Series and Insignia™ – 55″ Class F30 Series, use the hidden price hike ploy to trick shoppers into thinking they’re getting a better deal than they actually are (both TVs have been about the same low price for most of the second half of the year). You can see their price history from Honey here and here, respectively. Remember always to use price-tracking tools to avoid being taken advantage of. The following deals are ones I’ve verified to be, indeed, good deals:

Better Cyber Monday deals for loyalty members

Best Buy has exclusive deals for their paid loyalty programs that members of My Best Buy Plus or My Best Buy Total can take advantage of. Keep in mind most of those deals will only show their discounted price once you put them on your cart with the “save $X with Plus or Total” option. For example, you can get an extra $50 off on this Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 to match the lowest price it reached during October Prime Day, according to Honey’s price history.

What you can expect this year

Best Buy says you’ll see deals of “up to 50% on top gifts,” specifically during their Cyber Monday Sale. In past years, they’ve done multiple 24-hour “flash sales” similar to the “deal of the day” they have every day. The best sales always have limited quantities and are not guaranteed to get re-stocked. Remember, you can always return it if you find it cheaper at another retailer or even at Best Buy again at a later date.

The price-matching and return policies are different

Best Buy is known for its price-matching policy, where they’ll match the price of most products you find cheaper from a list of other retailers. But until Nov. 27 (Cyber Monday), you won’t be able to take advantage of their price-matching policy. However, if you do find a specific product to be cheaper somewhere else during those blackout periods, you can always return it. In fact, they’re extending their return and exchange policy through Jan. 13 for most products (including online) bought between Oct. 27 and Dec. 30.
