U.S. Black Friday online sales hit record $11.8 billion, Adobe reports

December 1, 2025
American shoppers spent a record $11.8 billion online on Black Friday, up 9.1% from last year, final data from Adobe Analytics showed.
Adobe Analytics, which tracks over 1 trillion U.S. retail site visits, expects shoppers to spend $5.5 billion on Saturday and $5.9 billion on Sunday, up 3.8% and 5.4% from a year earlier respectively.
Separately, software firm Salesforce reported that American consumers had spent $18 billion on Black Friday purchases, up 3% from a year ago, with luxury apparel and accessories among the most popular categories.
Although U.S. consumers spent more this Black Friday compared to last year, price increases hampered online demand, according to Salesforce, with shoppers purchasing fewer items at checkout compared to last year.
At physical stores, the bargain-chasing was relatively subdued on post-Thanksgiving morning, with some shoppers saying they feared overspending amid persistent inflation, trade policy-driven uncertainty, and a soft labor market.
Cyber Monday, traditionally a big day for online deals, is expected to be the season’s biggest online shopping day again, Adobe projects, driving $14.2 billion in spending, up 6.3% from last year.

Textured haircare brand Mielle has launched a new partnership with the National Football League, marking the League’s first collaboration with a textured haircare company.

“This partnership aligns with the league’s mission to build lasting connections within our communities nationwide and celebrate the self-expression of our players and fans.”

“We’re honored to be the first textured hair care partner of the NFL through our partnership with P&G,” said Monique Rodriguez, founder and CEO, Mielle. “For so many of us, football represents family and community.

And for millions of fans, that includes twisting, braiding, and caring for your textured hair before kickoff.”
The announcement is accompanied by a social-first campaign, including the viral “Passing the Phone” video moment featuring talents across the league from including players, executives and agents, to players’ families and on-air talent.
