Best Buy has announced the key dates for its upcoming Black Friday sales, with events kicking off later this month. It really does get earlier every year, right?

It all starts on October 27 – 29 when My Best Buy members get exclusively early access to the retailer’s early Black Friday deals. Yep, that’s a double early. Specific offers haven’t been announced at this stage but the retailer has confirmed that TVs, computing, gaming, e-transportation and many more product categories will all feature.

Then, on October 30, Best Buy opens these same early Black Friday deals to all shoppers. Hopefully, you’ll still be able to grab what you’re after at this later date. However, if you do want to give yourself the best chance then you can sign up for a My Best Buy membership from $49.99 per year to get into the early access window.

But that’s just the start. The full Best Buy Black Friday sale gets underway on November 17 – that’s a full week before the actual day itself. The retailer promises there will be thousands of deals on everything from small gifts to top products from major brands.

The retailer also confirmed that the Best Buy Holiday Price Match Guarantee will be in effect again. That means that if you buy a product and you see it available for a cheaper price from November 24 – 27 then Best Buy will match it so you don’t lose out.

Best Buy also operates an extended returns and exchange period for the holiday season in the US. That means the majority of unwanted gifts bought between October 27 – December 30 can be returned all the way through to January 13.

And if you prefer to shop in-store, then extended holiday hours run from November 6. Stores will be open from 9am to 9pm local time on Monday to Saturday, and from 9am to 8pm on Sunday. Stores will be closed on Thanksgiving Day.
