Black Friday is upon us and the Chrome deals are EVERYWHERE! We’ve shared quite a few hot promotions over the past few days and wanted to put them all here in one place to make your holiday shopping a little easier.
So, here we go.
Below we’ve compiled a list of the best deals on your favorite Chrome OS devices, listed by store. Each product is accompanied by a link directly to the retailer and all the delicious details.
Costco
Probably one of the best deals of the holiday, you can pick up this all-aluminum Chromebook bundled with an Acer mouse.
Acer Chromebook R13 32 GB $349
Undoubtedly one of the most sought after devices this season, the Acer R13 convertible will get you a sleek 2-in-1 that was made with Android Apps in mind.
The Braswell-based ASUS gives you the look of a premium device and a screen that is hard to beat at this price-point.
Another reason to consider Costco when purchasing your new Chromebook is their exclusive Concierge service. The service gets you technical support 7 days a week and a doubled manufacturer warrant on select devices.
Walmart
If you’re looking for a bargain-basement deal on a Chromebook that will get access to the Play Store in the near future, Walmart has you covered.
There was some question as to which configuration the Samsung 3 offering is, but now that the ad is live it looks like it is the better, 4GB ram model.
Amazon
Amazon is always a smorgasbord of tech deals if you’re willing to seek them out. The on-line store of stores has a couple great offerings for Chromebooks this week.

If you’re an Amazon Prime member you can grab these deals with free shipping and have them on your doorstep by Monday the 28th.
Google Home
The new voice-activated Home assistant is up for grabs at a number of retailer including the Google Store. You can find all the deals, online and in-store, on the #madebygoogle page. If you are looking to pick one up while you’re out, Best Buy, Walmart, Target and Verizon are stocking them in limited supply on shelves.
Anywhere you purchase gets you free shipping and a complimentary, 6-month subscription to YouTube Red.
Adorama
Adorama’s deal will come with a little wait but you’ll get a great device at an incredible price and even snatch up a bonus gift.
The Acer Chromebook R13 64GB has been a bit elusive as retailers have shipping dates listed from late November all the way to the end of the year. Adorama is offering up the classy convertibles for $399 and throwing in a free Brenthaven Elliot sleeve. (valued at $60 according to Adorama)
The current stocking date for the Acer is December 26th according to a representative from Adorama. But, if you’re looking for a great deal and you don’t need it before Christmas, this is tough to beat.

Lenovo
Lenovo is serving up some holiday savings on the Chromebook 13. With multiple configurations, you can save up-to 30% depending on which model you choose.
Best Buy
Along with the Google Home sale, Best Buy is selling the Acer Chromebook R11 for the low price of $199. This gets you a very versatile convertible with access to Android Apps out of the box.
One of the craziest deals at Best Buy this week isn’t a Chromebook at all. They are advertising a 49″ Toshiba 4K television with Chromecast built-in. If you’ve been holding off on upgrading, this is your chance. For the insanely low price of $199.99 you can grab an Ultra HD TV that’s ready to cast to straight out of the box.
