The products U.S. shoppers are searching for heading into Black Friday 2018

Tech is one of the hottest categories for Black Friday, with 22% of shoppers seeking out tech deals this year. But which products and stores are consumers most interested in?

To find out, we looked into Google search trends to see which products and retailers U.S. consumers are searching the most. We performed a month-over-month comparison (Oct. 11 through Nov. 9, versus the previous month-long period) using data gathered from Google Trends to show which products and/or stores are being searched for more as Black Friday draws closer.

Products that are being searched for more month over month include:

  • The Nintendo Switch
  • PlayStation 4
  • Xbox One
  • Apple products
  • TVS
  • Home appliances

All these products are big black-Friday buys. And we are already seeing some of the biggest discounts on these items in the latest ad scans.

Retailers that are seeing an uptick in search volume include Best Buy and Walmart.
