Best Buy Promo Codes, Price Match & Ways to Save

1. Sign in to a free My Best Buy account before you check out

   Free standard shipping, no $35 minimumLow effortUS residents of legal age

   Without an account, free standard shipping starts at $35, counted after coupons and before tax. Signed-in members of the free My Best Buy tier get free standard shipping with no minimum on qualifying items, plus order tracking in their account. Items sold by Marketplace sellers never ship free, whatever you spend or whichever membership you hold.^{[5, 6, 7, 9]}

   1. Create a free account on BestBuy.com, in the Best Buy app or in a store.
   2. Sign in before you check out so the member shipping applies.
   3. Look for Sold by Best Buy above the Add to cart button — Marketplace items don't qualify.

2. Ask for the difference if Best Buy cuts its price after you buy

   Its new, lower priceLow effortAnyone still inside the return window

   The Price Match Guarantee also covers Best Buy's own prices: if it lowers the in-store, online or app price of something you bought during your return and exchange period, it matches the lower price when you ask, and you can ask more than once in that period. The period runs 15 days from the day you receive the item for most products, or 60 days for Plus and Total members. If the price of an item waiting for scheduled delivery drops before its delivery date, Best Buy refunds 100% of the difference, tax included — request it by phone.^{[1, 2, 4]}

   1. Work out your deadline: 15 days after you receive the item, or 60 for Plus and Total members.
   2. Check the item's price on BestBuy.com or in the app now and then.
   3. If it drops, ask through Best Buy chat or 1-888-237-8289 for online orders, or at the Customer Service desk for store purchases.

3. Show Best Buy a lower price at Amazon, Walmart, Target and other approved stores

   The competitor's current priceSome effortNew items sold by Best Buy

   Best Buy matches the current price of 19 Qualified Competitors, among them Amazon, Apple, Costco, Home Depot, Target and Walmart. The item has to be new and identical — same brand, model number and color — and available right now from that retailer itself, not from a third-party seller on its site. Best Buy also matches its own online and app prices in stores, and its store prices online.^{[1, 2, 3]}

   1. Find the identical item in stock at a Qualified Competitor.
   2. Online orders: start a Best Buy chat or call 1-888-237-8289 with the link. In a store: show the ad or web page to an employee.
   3. Leave coupons out — Best Buy allows a coupon or a price match on a product, not both.

4. Buy Open-Box, refurbished or clearance stock

   Lower prices on returned and end-of-line itemsLow effortShoppers who don't need a sealed box

   Best Buy tests or inspects returned and display items and grades them Excellent, Good or Fair. Excellent items look brand new and include all their parts; Good and Fair items show wear and are sold only in stores or for Store Pickup. Refurbished products are restored to like-new and most carry at least a 90-day warranty (the listing gives the details), while clearance items are new, sealed end-of-line stock. All of them get the normal return period, but none of them can be price matched.^{[1, 4, 11]}

5. Join My Best Buy Plus if you'll use the returns and points

   $29.99 a year: 1% back, 60-day returnsLow effortRegular Best Buy shoppers

   Plus costs $29.99 a year and renews automatically. Members earn 0.5 points per $1 (1% back) — every 250 points becomes a $5 reward certificate — and get member prices, free 2-day shipping where available and a 60-day return window on most products. Paying with the My Best Buy Credit Card on Standard Credit adds 5% back, for 6% in total; the card's annual fee is $0–$59 depending on creditworthiness. Cancel within 60 days and you get the fee back, minus the value of any benefits you've used.^{[5, 6, 8]}

6. Trade in old tech before you buy new

   A Best Buy gift card or credit on a purchaseSome effortAdults with eligible used electronics

   Best Buy takes eligible used electronics in exchange for a Best Buy gift card or credit on a purchase. The estimate tool at BestBuy.com/TradeIn shows what an item may be worth; the final value depends on age, condition, accessories and resale prices, and isn't negotiable. Online trade-ins ship free but should arrive within 14 days of the estimate, or Best Buy can revise or withdraw it; in-store trade-ins are final once completed.^[12]

   1. Get an estimate in the Trade-In tool on BestBuy.com.
   2. Wipe the device, sign out of your accounts and turn off Find My on Apple devices.
   3. Ship it with the free label, or take it with photo ID to a participating store.

Codes and offers kept by David Jones, who lists only codes the store makes public.

Best Buy runs promo codes and digital coupons only from time to time, and member offers and reward certificates belong to your own account. We list only public codes and deals Best Buy shows on bestbuy.com, with their end dates.

1. No competitor matching over Thanksgiving week

   From the Thursday before Thanksgiving through the Monday after, Best Buy won't match Qualified Competitors' prices, and its exclusions also list competitors' items marked as Black Friday pricing. Plan any competitor match outside those dates.^{[1, 2]}

2. Marketplace items miss most perks

   Products sold and shipped by third-party sellers on BestBuy.com don't get free shipping, the 60-day member return window or price matching. The seller's name appears above the Add to cart button.^{[2, 4, 6, 9]}

3. Opening a camera or phone can cost you

   Return an opened drone, camera, lens, projector or similar item and 15% of the price comes off, or $45 for an activatable device, unless you bought it in one of the states that exempt you. Make sure it's the right model before you open the box.^[4]

4. Reward certificates don't wait

   Certificates typically expire 60 days after they're issued and can't be turned back into points or replaced once expired. Plus and Total members without the credit card also have their points converted into certificates automatically around March 1 each year.^{[7, 8]}

5. Coupons don't come back

   A digital coupon is used up when you order: it isn't replaced if you cancel or return, and if the price falls below its value the extra isn't refunded. Promotional certificates are also lost when you return what you bought with them.^{[7, 13]}
