Black Friday Disney deals - FAQ
When will the Black Friday Disney deals start?
The year's biggest sales event usually takes place on the last Friday of November, and it's no different in 2022. That means you can expect the best Disney Plus deals to occur on November 25.
You won't be limited to 24 hours, though. Discounts usually roll in at least a week before that point, and they continue long after the weekend is over. In fact, they'll often bleed into December (albeit under a different name). Keep your eyes peeled!

Black Friday Disney deals - what to expect
While you might assume that Black Friday is all about tech reductions (and to a degree, it is), merch also gets its fair share of discounts. Disney in particular is surprisingly good at shaving money off its products in November, and you can save on everything from plushies to branded suitcases. As an example, Galactic Snackin' Grogu (an interactive doll based on Baby Yoda from The Mandalorian) dropped to a record low of around $60 instead of nearly $85 despite being one of the hottest toys of the season.
Many of these offers can be found at the usual suspects like Amazon and Walmart, but ShopDisney also provides a wealth of worthwhile price cuts. To be precise, it offered a drop of 20% via the 'MAGIC' coupon code in 2021, so we'd be surprised if that didn't happen again for 2022.
Replicas such as The Black Series (including props, Force FX Lightsabers, and costume items) are worth keeping tabs on
While we're on the subject of specific examples, we suspect Christmas ornaments and Holiday tie-ins are shoe-ins for a reduction (they certainly got one last year and featured prominently in last year's Black Friday Disney deals). Based on Black Fridays past, we'd anticipate a $10 drop on the plush range at large as well.
Replicas such as The Black Series (including props, Force FX Lightsabers, and costume items) are worth keeping tabs on too. These have been known to tumble in cost during November, as evidenced when The Black Series Mandalorian Helmet fell to its lowest ever price of $110 in last year's Black Friday Disney deals on Amazon.
