Today's best Magic: The Gathering deals ahead of Black Friday
We have a winner! From what I've been able to tell on price matching software, this mega box of Strixhaven boosters has never been cheaper than it is now. While it traditionally hovers at around $135, this is still a better deal than we've had before.

Want to keep your deck safe in transit? This seems to be the cheapest the accessory has ever been (it's normally more like $33, according to price comparison software), and it's got a lot of positive feedback from Amazon user reviews; 89% are five stars.

If you're looking for a games night chock-full of MTG with your friends, this is a sure bet - particularly because it's never been cheaper. It comes with 1 Collector Booster to use as a prize, 12 Play Boosters, and 90 Lands.

We've got another all-time low price on our hands! The year's first set hasn't enjoyed such a large saving since it launched at the top end of 2026, so if you want some fey-inspired whimsy in your games, now's the time to strike.

It may not seem like the biggest price cut, but considering how hard this pack was to get ahead of launch, I'll take it. Particularly because this seems to be a lowest-ever price... It contains themed land cards, nine Play Boosters, one Collector Booster, some promo cards, and a special Spindown life counter.

OK, so it's not a lowest-ever price. However, it isn't far off... and this is still way better than the batting average of between $88 and $90. Not bad for a special-edition Gift Bundle. It contains a storage box, unique die, a Collector Booster, and nine Play Boosters.

So I know it's not cards, but I couldn't resist flagging this enormous offer on a collectible for one of the game's best-loved characters. Poor Fblthp has now found themselves in the real world as a Funko figure,

Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals FAQ
When will the Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals start?
Black Friday MTG deals officially kick off on November 27, 2026, but they'll actually start way before that. We tend to see price cuts appearing from a mid-November onwards, so keep an eye out as Thanksgiving approaches.
The discounts won't end after Black Friday itself, either. They usually cling on into December as we move to Cyber Monday.
What will the best Black Friday MTG deals be?
Many Magic products get discounted for Black Friday, but some enjoy better reductions than others. MTG's most popular format - Commander - always enjoys a deal or two when the sale rolls around, for example. Although you're less likely to get a bargain on brand-new, fresh-off-the-press sets, most Commander decks will be a few months old by the time the sales arrive. If previous years are anything to go by, that means we should be able to expect $10 off the sticker price (or beyond, if it's an older release).
Booster boxes also enjoy huge price cuts. You can typically save $40 or more on these collections if you're lucky, providing far better value for money than you'd usually find.
Where will the best Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals be?
Finding the 'best' offers will depend on what you're looking for. Although the big retailers are worth watching during this year's Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals, they tend to emphasize bundles, Commander decks, and massive booster boxes from the latest sets. That's why smaller, independent stores are great options to keep up your sleeve. They often provide discounts on individual cards and are competitive in terms of price.
USA
- Amazon: Good for bundles
- Walmart: Surprisingly wide range
- Best Buy: Stocks the latest sets
- Miniature Market: Great for discounts
- Target: Offers MTG merch
UK
- Amazon: Most reliable source
- Magic Madhouse: Great for individual cards
- Zatu: Good source for single booster packs
- Wayland Games: Offers regular discounts

I've been writing about games in one form or another since 2012, but these days you'll find me managing GamesRadar+'s tabletop gaming and toy coverage (I spend my time here handling everything from board game reviews to the latest Lego news). I've also been obsessed with Warhammer since the 1990s, and love nothing more than running tabletop RPGs like D&D as a Dungeon Master.
