Some of Our All-Time Favorite Gifts Are on Sale for Black Friday (2024)

Updated 12:13 P.M. Nov. 29, 2024.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are great days to save big on normally pricey purchases like electronics and fitness equipment, or stock up on your everyday essentials (you can find me placing a bulk order of dog poop bags and dish soap this year). But Cyber Week is also the best time to knock out your holiday shopping, since December seems to go by faster every year—and those shipping deadlines can really sneak up on you.

So in the name of ending 2024 on a (slightly) less stressful note, why not snag your gifts now and save a little cash while you’re at it? It just so happens that many of the presents we’ve recommended over the years are on sale for Black Friday, and we’ve highlighted them below. There are relaxing, cozy options for the self-care enthusiast, luxe beauty products for the friend who never skips their skin-care routine, outdoor gear for your favorite hiker, and much more.

Wellness gift deals

Nekteck Shiatsu Neck and Back Massager

We love this massager for anyone who seems a little tense—and could use relief, like, now. “This thing kneads me like a slab of dough,” our tester wrote in her review. Its design makes it easy to maneuver across the user’s neck, back, and shoulders, and the optional heat setting feels great on extra-tender knots.

Layla Weighted Blanket (20-lb.)

A good weighted blanket can feel like a warm, comforting hug—and this one from Layla is especially cozy. It’s double-sided, with cotton on one side and plush faux fur on the other, making it the ideal throw to hunker under this winter. “If you’re looking for a weighted blanket that is soft, versatile, easy to keep clean, and very, very effective at delivering on the promise of cocooning you away from the world under a solid mass of coziness, the Layla is my recommendation,” our reviewer wrote.

Pure Enrichment PureRelief XL Heating Pad

SELF's editor in chief likes this heating pad so much she's purchased it multiple times: “Now I have one I keep at home and one that stays at my office desk,” she says. It has a soft, velvety texture and feels soothing against sore muscles.

Brooklinen Super Plush Robe

Your giftee can stay comfy on chilly mornings and throughout their post-shower routine in this fluffy bathrobe. “This is the robe to grab if you want to pretend you’re a guest at a White Lotus resort,” one SELF staffer says, adding that it has a nice heft to it, which helps her feel snug and warm.

Hey Dewy Wireless Facial Humidifier

This SELF Healthy Home Award–winner is compact enough to keep on a desk, on a vanity, or even in a car cupholder, so your friend’s skin can feel a little more hydrated, wherever they are. “While this humidifier is small, I noticed my skin felt significantly less dry once I started using it consistently,” one tester said.

Fitness gift deals

Hoka Bondi 8

To be perfectly frank, we love Hoka’s Bondi 8. It’s won multiple Sneaker Awards over the years; it’s impressed SELF staffers, testers, and nurses (who know a thing or two about being on your feet all day); and it’s been a consistent pick among podiatrists for plantar fasciitis and long walks. If you know anyone with creaky knees or a walking workout routine, give them these shoes (especially while they’re 20% off).

BowFlex SelectTech 552 Adjustable Dumbbells

Got a pal whose living room doubles as their gym? These multiple-time Home Fitness Award–winning adjustable dumbbells don’t take up a ton of space and have a solid weight range (5 to 52.5 pounds, in 2.5-pound increments) that adjusts with the turn of a dial. Plus, they come with their own storage trays.

Merrell Hut Ultra Wrap

One Sneaker Award tester described this slide sandal as “beyond comfortable." With its thick foam sole and wide, foot-hugging strap, it'll feel comfy and supportive for anyone who could use a little relief after a long workout, hike, or day at work.

Athleta Salutation Stash Tight

If the athleisure fan in your life somehow doesn’t have a pair of Athleta’s best-selling Salutation Stash Tights already, it’s time to remedy that. We gave them an Activewear Award last year for their versatility—you can break a sweat in them one day, then wear them for a leisurely walk the next. But the best part? They have pockets that actually fit a phone.

Hydrow Wave Rower

Hydrow’s Wave Rower won a Home Fitness Award in 2022 and 2023 for its wonderful balance of convenience and performance. It’s smaller and lighter than a standard rowing machine, which makes it easier to move and set up at home, and its electromagnetic drag mechanism is smooth, quiet, and designed to replicate the feeling of rowing on real water.

Dyson Airwrap Origin Multi-Styler Long Refurbished

It has inspired droves of dupes for a reason—Dyson’s TikTok-famous Airwrap Multi-Styler really is that good, according to our tester. “The Dyson Airwrap Complete is the spaceship of hot tools,” she wrote in her review. “While I wouldn’t call it beginner-friendly, it does provide access to salon results that are hard, if not impossible, to achieve at home.”
