We skip the loud banners. An item gets on this board only when the retailer's own sale price sits at least 35% below its listed reference price — and every card shows the math.
Independent deal research. Retailer reference prices aren't necessarily the lowest historical prices. Checkout prices and stock can change.
Every listing is cleared against the retailer's published regular or “was” price. Open Show the math on any card to see the calculation and the evidence. Nothing under 35% appears.
* “Verified drop” means calculated from the merchant's displayed reference and sale prices — not an independent 90-day price-history audit. Percentages are rounded down, so 49.87% shows as 49%. Listings drop off automatically 24 hours after their last successful check. Prices exclude tax, shipping, membership terms and checkout-only coupons.
Where each brand's real markdowns tend to show up, and the trick to watch for. Follow the ones you care about and the board will flag their deals and let you filter to just them.
About the ratings: “Often / Sometimes / Rarely clears 35%” is CDG’s editorial read on how these brands have been discounted in past holiday seasons. It isn’t a forecast or a price guarantee, and it never decides what goes on the board. Only verified retailer price pairs do that.
Announced 2026 sale windows for the big retailers, on one timeline. Faded edges mean the retailer hasn't announced an end date yet. Dates only. A sale window isn't proof of a 35% deal.

Found something we haven't listed? Enter the prices and run the same test we use. Add the lowest price you've seen to find out whether the “was” price tells the whole story.
We round down, never up: 34.99% is a cut, not a 35%.
“50% off” is a claim. A good deal is evidence: a specific product, the retailer's current price, and the retailer's reference price — computed, never copied from an ad.
Specialist deal feeds, retailer sale pages and Black Friday ad coverage surface candidates. Headlines are leads, not proof — they go to a review queue, never straight to the board.
One exact product or model number. The retailer's current price and its reference price, both on the retailer's own domain. Discount = (reference − sale) ÷ reference × 100, in exact decimal math.
Rounded down, never up. Evidence expires after 24 hours; a failed or blocked recheck doesn't renew it. An empty board beats a stale one.
Coverage, not endorsements. Lead sources help find candidates; only proof sources — the retailers themselves — can put an item on the board.
Coverage disclosure: six RSS feeds are configured for automated candidate discovery once deployed. The other sites are a research directory, not a claim that every page is crawled automatically. Feed content is never republished on this page.
It's high enough to filter out routine markdowns that show up all year, and low enough that real doorbusters on tools, TVs, appliances and toys still clear it. The line is hard: 34.99% is cut.
It means the retailer's own sale price is half its own listed reference price. Retailers sometimes inflate reference prices, so this isn't a price-history audit. Compare at another store before buying anything big.
Each listing's evidence lasts 24 hours. If a recheck can't confirm the same price pair on the retailer's page — because the price changed, the item sold out, or the page blocked the check — the listing comes off rather than staying up on stale data. Recently expired items stay below the board, clearly marked as unverified.
No. Deal links currently carry no affiliate tracking. If that ever changes, it'll be disclosed here and in the footer.

Black Friday 2026 is Friday, November 27. Early promotions can qualify too — they just have to clear the same price test.
