Black Friday is November 27 this year and Cyber Monday is November 30, but PongBot didn’t wait: its sale is already on and runs until December 6. Most table tennis shops start later in November, so this page will fill up over the next few weeks.
I’ll be updating it every day through Cyber Monday. When a shop launches its sale, I’ll add the deals I think are worth your money, and I’ll take them off again when they end or the price creeps back up. Each card shows when we last checked the price, so you can see how fresh it is.
Some links on this page are affiliate links. You pay the same price, and we earn a small commission that keeps the site running.
Top Black Friday table tennis deals
These are the deals I’d look at first. If you’ve been thinking about a robot for home practice, start with the Nova S Pro. Our reader code RI5OFF takes another 5% off PongBot’s sale prices at checkout.

Table deals
Last year, Megaspin took about 20% off Kettler outdoor tables, and Amazon dropped the JOOLA Inside close to its lowest price. If you haven’t settled on a size or top thickness yet, start with our table tennis table guide.

Blade deals
Pick the blade first and the deal second. For a shortlist, see our table tennis blade rankings.

Rubber deals
Rubbers wear out, so Black Friday is a sensible time to buy your next two sheets in advance. If you’re thinking of switching, our table tennis rubber rankings are the place to start.
No rubber deals yet.
Racket deals
A ready-made racket is the easiest gift for a player who hasn’t built a custom setup yet. Look for a proper blade with real rubbers on it, rather than the slick, low-grip rubber on a rec paddle, so they can learn to spin the ball.
No racket deals yet.
Accessory deals
Shoes, balls, nets, cases and other extras. Amazon doesn’t let us show its prices, so Amazon cards link straight to the listing where you can see today’s price. We only list an Amazon item when Amazon itself marks it as a Black Friday or Cyber Monday deal.
No accessory deals yet.
Gifts under $50
Everything here cost under $50 when we last checked, cheapest first. For gift ideas at every budget, see our table tennis gift guide.

What is Black Friday?
Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving in the United States, and it has long marked the start of the holiday shopping season. Philadelphia police used the name in the 1960s for the traffic and crowds that day brought. The story about shops moving “into the black” came later.
Cyber Monday follows three days later. Table tennis sales don’t stick to those two days: PongBot started in October and runs into December.
