Big Lots Brings Back Black Friday Fridays Promotion
As Big Lots navigates its recent bankruptcy filing, the discount retailer is bringing back its Black Friday Fridays promotions that will run through December 6.
The weekly sales event held each Friday throughout the fall will include special one-day deals on décor, gifts, and more up to 50% off, now through Dec. 6.
The Black Friday sales event kick-off comes on the heels of Big Lots' acquisition of a well-known national party supply retailer's overstock, marking the company's biggest extreme bargain Halloween closeout ever, originally valued at $11 million.
The closeout deal includes hundreds of new Halloween items, including indoor and outdoor décor, that are being sold for 50-70% less than their original retail prices.
"We know that many family budgets are stretched again this year, with some choosing to shop earlier than ever for items on their holiday lists," said Bruce Thorn, president and CEO of Big Lots. "Staying true to our reason for being, Big Lots is helping shoppers live big and save lots again this season by giving them a significant head start on some of our biggest Black Friday-level deals of the year. Returning bigger and better this year, Black Fridays at Big Lots will be can't-miss bargain shopping events."
Each week's deal will be revealed on Thursday mornings and will span across product categories, including great holiday gift options, seasonal décor, and more, all priced up to 50% off for one day only. Bargain shoppers who would like to be among the first to know about each week's Friday deal can sign up to be a BIG Rewards member for free and receive the latest bargains news in their email inboxes or by text at biglots.com/rewards.
In addition to 50% off all Halloween décor, on Friday, Sept. 13, the Big Lots Foundation will match all donations made in-store to The Kids Mental Health Foundation, up to $50,000. Customers who donate any amount will also receive a coupon for $5 off their next purchase of $15 or more.
