Amazon after-Christmas sales 2026: Dec 26
After-Christmas sales start on Saturday, December 26, 2026, the day after Christmas. Amazon announces no sale of its own for those days in the US. The test for a price that week is the item’s own Black Friday low.

No sale Amazon announces
Amazon names and dates Black Friday Week and Prime Big Deal Days, and says nothing of the days after December 25, so there is no Amazon banner to hold a late-December price up to. The measure is the one for any other week: what the same item cost at Amazon before, and above all the lowest it reached in November.
Bought in November, cheaper in December
In 2023, 2024 and 2025, most items bought from November 1 to December 31 could go back until January 31, and Apple products until January 15. If 2026 follows them, an item bought on Black Friday that costs less after Christmas can be ordered again at the lower price and the first one returned. Amazon has not announced the 2026 terms yet.
What this page will count
From December 1, the products whose price really fell during Black Friday week, each with what it costs today. From January 1, each product’s lowest price from December 26 to 31 against its lowest during Black Friday week, with a difference under 5% counted as the same price.

Questions people ask
- When do after-Christmas sales start in 2026?
- On Saturday, December 26, 2026, the day after Christmas. In 2027 the day falls on a Sunday.
- Does Amazon have an after-Christmas sale?
- Not as an announced event in the US. Amazon names and dates Black Friday Week and Prime Big Deal Days but announces no sale for the days after Christmas; its prices go on changing through them as they do every week.
- Is it cheaper to buy after Christmas than on Black Friday?
- It depends on the item, and the test is the item’s own Black Friday low: an after-Christmas price above it is not the better deal. An item bought in November that costs less afterwards may still be inside Amazon’s holiday return window.
