UPDATE: Nov. 25, 2022, 8:00 a.m. EST This story has been updated to include the latest mattress deals and discounts during Black Friday.

  • BEST FOAM MATTRESS DEAL: The Bear Original mattress is an affordable gel-infused memory foam option that contours to keep your spine aligned — $487 - $1,055 (save up to $567 with code BF35)

  • BEST HYBRID MATTRESS DEAL: The Casper Wave Hybrid creates comfy zoned support with an innovative mix of foam, springs, and gel pods — $1,346.25 - $2,621.25 (save up to $873.75)


Black Friday may be a seasonal event, but sleep is year-round. Getting quality shut-eye should be a priority for all of us — it contributes to both our mental and physical health. Also, sleeping just rocks. If you haven't allowed yourself to indulge in regular midday naps, we recommend making it a part of your routine.

Because we need to sleep and do it nightly, having a good mattress is a must. It's one of the best investments you can make, so don't be shy about splurging if you're in the position to. Luckily, you might not have to splurge too much, because the Black Friday mattress sales are great this year.

We've put together a list of the best live Black Friday mattress deals from Leesa, Casper, and plenty more. (Bonus: plenty of them come with free stuff, like pillows.) We see a good night's sleep in your future.

Black Friday foam mattress deals

Why we like it

Bear's Original foam mattress is an affordable option for those getting their first "bed in a box," now under $1,000 for any size (other than the Split King) with Bear's generous 35% off sale. The gel-infused memory foam gently contours to keep your spine in check while drawing away body heat to keep you cool. Your purchase also comes with free sheets, two Cloud pillows, and a mattress protector — a $325 value.

Black Friday hybrid mattress deals

Why we like it

If you've decided that you're down to ball out on a mattress, go with Casper's Wave Hybrid. Casper nailed the balance of firmness and softness with an innovative concoction of memory foam, latex, springs, and gel pods, all strategically layered to create zoned support under your waist and lower back. Mashable reviewer RJ Andersen was sold after one night.

Frequently Asked Questions


Black Friday is one of the best times of year to buy a mattress, actually. Though holiday weekends like Labor Day and Memorial Day are also big for mattress deals, Black Friday is conveniently situated right before the new year, when retailers are making a last-ditch effort to clear stock before January (when most brands drop their new mattress models).


We won't lie — mattresses are a hefty investment, but it's hard to put a correct price on comfort. While we wouldn't recommend buying the absolute cheapest mattress you can find, you can keep your cart near the $500 or $600 mark without waking up with a sore back. Premium mattresses with more innovative layering or cooling materials typically hit between $1,500 and $3,000. But that's easier to stomach when you think of it in terms of longevity: Splurging on a nice mattress now means you won't have to even think about a replacement for, like, the next decade.

Pricing also depends on size, and it goes without saying that mattresses aren't one size fits all. Consider how many people (or pets) will be sleeping in the bed, too, and how much you value factors like low motion transfer and personal space for spreading out. Obviously, the bigger the mattress, the more expensive — the prices we have listed for each Black Friday sale range from the cheapest (a twin) to the most expensive (a king). And before you ask, the difference between a king and a California king is that the latter is four inches longer but four inches narrower.

Her ever-growing experience in these categories comes in clutch when making recommendations on how to spend your money during shopping holidays like Black Friday, which Leah has been covering for Mashable since 2017.

The robot vacuum beat in particular has cemented itself as Leah's main ~thing~ across the past few years. Since 2019, her expertise has been perpetually bolstered by the meticulous eye she keeps on robot vacuum deals and new releases, but more importantly, her hands-on experience with more than 25 robot vacuums tested in her own home. (This number has probably gone up by the time you're reading this.) That at-home testing is standardized through Mashable's robot testing guide — a granular scoring rubric for assessing all aspects of owning and using a robot vacuum on the daily — that Leah created herself.

Leah graduated from Penn State University in 2016 with dual degrees in Sociology and Media Studies. When she's not writing about shopping (or shopping online for herself), she's almost definitely watching a horror movie, "RuPaul's Drag Race," or "The Office."
