Black Friday will be here before you know it, with thousands of retailers flaunting their best deals of the year. We're shoppers at heart, so you know we're already scoping out 2024's offerings! Given that the list of stores and brands hosting Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales this year is essentially endless, we're weeding out only the best deals from the places you love to spend (and save). From beauty faves like Dieux and Kiehl's to home goods from Amazon and Walmart, these are the Black Friday deals you simply can't miss.

What is Black Friday?

Kaboompics / PEXELS

Black Friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving that typically signifies the start of holiday shopping season, though many retailers have started to launch their Black Friday deals earlier year over year. A lot of the deals that stores and brands offer during Black Friday outpace their other sales events (such as Memorial Day and Labor Day) in terms of savings.

When is Black Friday 2024?

Gustavo Fring / PEXELS

Black Friday will land on November 29, 2024.

What is Cyber Monday?

Cottonbro Studio / PEXELS

Cyber Monday is the Monday after Thanksgiving that highlights savings and deals online as opposed to in-store offers. It's one of the busiest times of year for online shopping.

When is Cyber Monday 2024?

Anna Shvets / PEXELS

Cyber Monday will land on December 2, 2024.

When's the best time to shop for holiday gifts?

Vlada Karpovich / PEXELS

We're big believers that it's never too early to start shopping for holiday gifts. The sooner you shop, the better, so you can check everyone off your list ahead of the busy holiday season and have some peace of mind once the real festivities start! Plus, if you're shopping online, starting early gives you ample time to wait for items to be shipped and delivered to your door. If deals and savings are what you're looking for, Black Friday and Cyber Monday offer some really great opportunities.

What's the best thing to shop for during Black Friday and Cyber Monday?

Kaboompics / PEXELS

The best thing to shop for during Black Friday deals and Cyber Monday promotions really depends on what your needs are as well as the items you're scoping out to treat yourself (or the people you're gifting for the holidays). Typically, big-ticket items like home appliances, tech products like earbuds, laptops, TVs, and tablets, and luxury self-care tools are heavily discounted during this time.

In our opinion, the weekend is the perfect time for all kinds of relaxing. Binging the new season of Outer Banks, taking care of some online shopping, and making breakfast in bed. The perfect day-off breakfast? A millionaire's bacon cinnamon roll recipe. Millionaire's bacon is when you get a sweet glaze by adding something sugary to the bacon before you fry it. It's the perfect mix of salty and sweet, and crunchy and soft, for a breakfast that everyone will love. Keep reading to learn how to hack a can of store-bought cinnamon rolls.

Everything You Need For Millionaire’s Bacon Cinnamon Rolls

One word: yum.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound thick-cut bacon
  • Brown sugar
  • Cayenne pepper
  • Black pepper
  • 1 can of store-bought cinnamon rolls

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay the bacon on the parchment in a single layer. Sprinkle with brown sugar, cayenne pepper and black pepper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool. Chop bacon into small pieces and set aside.
  2. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the cinnamon rolls from the can. Unroll each roll completely, top the dough with bacon pieces and roll back up again. Place five rolls in a greased cake pan and top with additional pieces of bacon.
  3. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and top with icing and more bacon! Enjoy!

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay the bacon on the parchment in a single layer. Sprinkle with brown sugar, cayenne pepper and black pepper.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool. Chop bacon into small pieces and set aside.

Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the cinnamon rolls from the can. Unroll each roll completely and top the dough with bacon pieces.

Roll back up again. Place five rolls in a greased cake pan and top with additional pieces of bacon. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and top with icing and more bacon!

Serve the rolls with orange juice and… more bacon (duh!).

That’s some ooey, gooey cinnamon roll goodness right there.

We think dad will give these two thumbs up.

OUT. OF. CONTROL.

Time to get in there for a taste test!

BBQ Jackfruit Sandwiches

Jackfruit is that magical produce that seems to perfectly replicate meat in almost any dish. Thanks to its growing popularity, it's become relatively easy to find in grocery stores. Just make sure you buy a young green jackfruit in water, not brine or syrup. This is the key to achieving proper flavor and texture. Then all you need to do is sauté and add A LOT of barbecue sauce. (via Minimalist Baker)

Natural Girl, Modern World

Ela Vegan

Lazy Cat Kitchen

Vegan Pad Thai

Pad Thai is one of the easiest dishes to veganize because it already comes layered with an array of crunchy vegetables and cubes of tofu.

No Recipes

Peas & Crayons

Vegan Grilled Cheese

Something about that ooey-gooey yumminess of grilled cheese is simply unbeatable.
