I Shop Amazon for a Living, and These Are the 5 Things I’m Buying From Its Early Black Friday Sale

Black Friday may still be weeks away, but Amazon is gearing up with deals galore, giving shoppers early access to sales weeks before the holiday frenzy begins.

Amazon released thousands of early Black Friday deals on fashion, home, kitchen, tech, and cleaning finds in its massive sale section, and the assortment includes popular brands, like Dyson, Apple, Bissell, New Balance, Kate Spade, and Le Creuset. As Real Simple’s resident Amazon expert, I’ve seen popular brands and markdowns sell out fast around Black Friday, so I’m taking advantage of these early savings.  

Amazon Early Black Friday Deals

iRobot Q0120 Roomba Robot Vacuum

Amazon


I’ve written about robot vacuums for years and even gifted them to several members of my family, but I’ve never purchased one for myself. iRobot Roomba has the best reputation when it comes to these automatic cleaners, offering great value, durability, and impressive features. And this popular model with 34,000 five-star ratings is going for a price that beats many of the brand’s 2023 Black Friday offers, making now a great time to get one. 

First Alert Home Fire Extinguisher Two-Pack

Amazon


While some may think of the holiday shopping season as the time to get gifts, it’s also a great time to score savings on must-have items. I recently purchased one of these fire extinguishers just days before I would need it to put out a small kitchen fire in my home. I was so grateful to have this slim, easy-to-store extinguisher, which was simple to use even when I was flustered with a dangerous situation unfolding before me. I’m going to grab a couple more to ensure I’m prepared for future emergencies.  

Terro Indoor Fruit Fly Trap Set

Amazon


I’m also grabbing this everyday kitchen essential, which I’ve used in my previous home to get rid of fruit flies. This two-pack comes with everything you need to set up effective traps in seconds. And while I wish they looked more discreet, they do blend in if you position them next to fruits and veggies.

Lodge 6-Quart Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven

Amazon


My partner has been asking for a Dutch oven for a long time, so I’m grabbing this affordable but high-quality one to gift him this holiday season. It’s pretty enough to leave out on our counter, and I know he’ll love using this to braise meats, make stews, and bake bread.

Kate Spade New York Patent Saffiano Double-Up Crossbody Bag

Amazon


It wouldn’t be a successful shopping haul without getting something special for myself, which I highly encourage all women to do during the holiday season (after all, who knows what you want better than you!). This clever crossbody, which features two bags in one, is a functional piece with ample storage that I know I’ll reach for all the time. And while some may fear this bold pink hue, I’m confident it will add just the right amount of color and personality to any look thanks to its small size.
