This is No. 6 in our daily Black Friday series, with a different retailer each day through Cyber Monday. So far: [Walmart](https://www.skimwire.com/walmart-black-friday-2026-dates-tech-deals/), [Amazon](https://www.skimwire.com/amazon-black-friday-2026-dates-tech-deals/), [Best Buy](https://www.skimwire.com/best-buy-black-friday-2026-dates-tech-deals/), [Target](https://www.skimwire.com/target-black-friday-2026-dates-tech-deals/) and [Home Depot](https://www.skimwire.com/home-depot-black-friday-2026-dates-tech-deals/).

Checked Nov. 8, 2026, around 11:15 a.m. MT. Lowe's newsroom listed no newer Black Friday release at that time.* ## What MyLowe's Rewards members get MyLowe's Rewards is Lowe's free loyalty program, and this season it carries most of the perks: - **Early Doorbuster access:** members can shop Doorbusters online one day before they open to everyone on Nov. 27. - **Free same-day delivery** on eligible items, with a $25 minimum and a loyalty membership required. Order eligible items by 2 p.m.; weight, size and availability limits apply. - **Traeger early access:** members get early access to new Traeger grills and accessories on Lowes.com in November and can activate an offer for 3X points on eligible Traeger purchases. - **Free member gifts and MyLowe's Money** throughout the season, according to Lowe's. If you plan to shop Doorbusters, sign up before Thanksgiving. DealNews (Nov. 7) also notes that members get free shipping on most items. *Sources: Lowe's corporate (Oct. 8);* [*DealNews (published Nov. 7)*](https://www.dealnews.com/Lowes-Black-Friday-Sale-2026-Up-to-60-off-free-shipping/22360324.html?ref=skimwire.com)*.* ## Does Lowe's price match on Black Friday? Partly. Lowe's [Lowest Price Guarantee](https://www.lowes.com/l/about/lowest-price-guarantee?ref=skimwire.com) matches a current lower price on an identical, in-stock item from another retailer, including the competitor's shipping or delivery cost, if the competitor can ship it to you. But the exclusions matter most this month: - It excludes competitors' **one-time and seasonal promotions, explicitly including Black Friday**, plus BOGO offers, rebates, free offers and bundle offers. - It excludes **clearance, open-box, refurbished and closeout** items, **third-party marketplace sellers** (Lowe's will match items sold by Amazon.com, but not third-party sellers on Amazon), membership warehouse clubs and loyalty or military pricing. - It doesn't cover price differences between Lowe's stores or ZIP codes, and it can't be combined with other Lowe's offers. Practical upshot: don't count on Lowe's matching a rival's doorbuster. Slickdeals (Nov. 5) also notes that Lowe's stores don't honor online pricing and that prices can vary by region, so check the price for your store or ZIP code. *Sources:* [*Lowe's Lowest Price Guarantee page*](https://www.lowes.com/l/about/lowest-price-guarantee?ref=skimwire.com)*, read Nov. 8 around 11:14 a.m. MT; Slickdeals (Nov. 5).* ## Lowe's vs. Home Depot: Black Friday at a glance | | Lowe's | Home Depot | | ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | Early event | Four weeks of Black Friday deals from Oct. 29 | Black Friday Savings Event Nov. 5–25 | | Daily deal run | 12 Days of Deals from Nov. 16 | New tool deals every Thursday (per 9to5Toys) | | Doorbusters | Nov. 27; members online Nov. 26 | Nov. 27 (per 9to5Toys) | | Thanksgiving | Stores closed; online deals | Stores closed | | After Black Friday | Cyber Deals (dates TBA); December Deal Drops Dec. 3–24 | Cyber Monday deals from Nov. 30 (per 9to5Toys) | | Free tools | Free-tool offers with qualifying DEWALT, CRAFTSMAN and Kobalt battery kits | BOGO free tools on participating RYOBI, Milwaukee and DEWALT kits | *Lowe's column as of Nov. 8 (sources above). Home Depot column from our* [*Home Depot Black Friday guide*](https://www.skimwire.com/home-depot-black-friday-2026-dates-tech-deals/) *(Home Depot corporate and 9to5Toys, as of Nov. 7).* ## Tool deals and free-tool offers (outlet-attributed) Lowes.com blocks our automated price checks, so we haven't verified these on Lowe's site ourselves. Prices below are as reported by the outlet named, on the date shown. Check the product page or the Lowe's app for your ZIP code before you buy. ### Free-tool battery kits - **DEWALT 20V MAX 5Ah battery 2-pack kit + one free select tool:** $199, per Slickdeals (Nov. 5). Bob Vila (Nov. 7) lists the same 5Ah 2-pack with charger at $199 (was $299). - **DEWALT 8Ah battery 2-pack kit + three free tools** and **CRAFTSMAN V20 battery kit + free tool:** Slickdeals says both offers are valid through Jan. 20, 2027, so you don't need to rush these. - **Bosch 18V 6Ah 2-pack kit + two free tools:** $269, per Slickdeals (Nov. 5). Pick your free tool in the offer box on the product page. Slickdeals notes that if the box won't load, you can add the kit to your cart and choose there. ### Drills, drivers and combo kits - **CRAFTSMAN V20 drill and impact driver combo kit** (two batteries, charger, bag): $99, per Bob Vila (Nov. 7). - **Kobalt 24V brushless drill and impact driver combo kit:** $129 (was $149), per Bob Vila (Nov. 7). - **DEWALT XTREME 12V drill and impact driver kit:** $129, per Slickdeals (Nov. 5), which says that's the lowest price it has tracked since October 2024. - **DEWALT 20V MAX brushless 2-tool combo kit:** $169 (was $249), per Bob Vila (Nov. 7). ### Gift-size tools and garage gadgets - **CRAFTSMAN 12V cordless mini air inflator:** $29.98 (was $54.98), per Bob Vila (Nov. 7). - **DEWALT TOUGH GRIP 110-piece screwdriver bit set:** $29.98, per Slickdeals (Nov. 5). - **DEWALT 20V charger and USB-C adapter kit:** $79 (was $119), per Bob Vila (Nov. 7). - **DEWALT STEALTHSONIC 9-gallon quiet wet/dry shop vacuum:** $99 (was $129), per Bob Vila (Nov. 7). - **CRAFTSMAN VERSASTACK 242-piece mechanics tool set:** $99, per Slickdeals (Nov. 5), which notes it sold for $89 in July. Gift tip: match the recipient's battery platform. DEWALT 12V MAX and 20V MAX tools use different batteries, and a bare tool without a battery is a frustrating gift for someone new to cordless tools. *Sources:* [*Slickdeals (Nov. 5)*](https://daily.slickdeals.net/black-friday/lowes-best-black-friday-deals/?ref=skimwire.com)*;* [*Bob Vila (Nov. 7)*](https://www.bobvila.com/reviews/lowes-early-black-friday-power-tool-deals-nov-2026/?ref=skimwire.com)*. Not independently checked on Lowes.com.* ## Smart home and security deals Lowe's isn't a laptop or TV destination, but it does sell smart home security gear, and Ring is the clearest deal right now: - **Ring video doorbells and security cameras:** up to 60% off select models, with prices starting in the mid-$20s, through Nov. 30, according to [The Freebie Guy (Nov. 3)](https://thefreebieguy.com/ring-security-sale/?ref=skimwire.com). Hip2Save flagged the same Ring sale on Lowes.com on Nov. 2. We couldn't confirm which Ring models or exact prices are included, because Lowes.com blocked our checks and these outlets didn't list them all. If you're comparing Ring doorbells, Home Depot has its own Ring sale (see our [Home Depot guide](https://www.skimwire.com/home-depot-black-friday-2026-dates-tech-deals/#smart-home-and-tech-deals)), and DealNews has reported Ring discounts at Amazon this month. Recording history and some smart alerts on Ring devices require a paid Ring subscription. For the rest of the season, Lowe's has only named categories (appliances, tools, décor, outdoor power, flooring and more), not specific smart home or electronics prices. We'll update this section when the 12 Days of Deals and Thanksgiving-week Doorbusters reveal them. ## Appliances and outdoor - **Appliances:** Lowe's says Thanksgiving-week Doorbusters will include savings on select major appliances, plus extra savings and benefits on qualifying purchases. It hasn't published thresholds or model prices. - **Outdoor power:** DealNews (Nov. 7) reports an EGO POWER+ 56V leaf blower kit at $379 ($60 off) and a Blackstone 36-inch Original Omnivore griddle at $299 ($100 off). *Sources: Lowe's corporate (Oct. 8);* [*DealNews (published Nov. 7)*](https://www.dealnews.com/Lowes-Black-Friday-Sale-2026-Up-to-60-off-free-shipping/22360324.html?ref=skimwire.com)*.* ## How to shop Lowe's Black Friday - **Battery-kit free-tool deals:** no rush. Slickdeals says several run through Jan. 20, 2027. - **Daily deals:** check every morning from Nov. 16, when 12 Days of Deals starts. - **Doorbusters:** join MyLowe's Rewards before Thanksgiving to shop online on Nov. 26. - **Check your ZIP code:** Lowe's prices vary by region, and stores don't honor online pricing. - **Don't rely on price matching** against another store's Black Friday ad, because Lowe's excludes those. ## Lowe's Black Friday FAQ ### When does Lowe's Black Friday 2026 start?
