Black Friday Deals Extended: Get Squarespace Templates and Plugins at Discounted Prices

Why This Matters

Most small business owners, freelancers, and budding entrepreneurs pour hours into their websites, only to feel boxed in by limited designs or features. It’s more common than you’d think. You run up against the default Squarespace layouts, try to tweak something, and before you know it, you’re stuck in a rabbit hole of endless YouTube tutorials, trying to "fix" a basic navigation or get an Instagram feed to play nicely.

And there's the money side. Websites are meant to help you look professional, convert visitors, and save time, but when those crucial upgrades look like a luxury, it feels like the only options are the DIY workaround or nothing. It’s frustrating. People abandon must-have improvements not because they don’t matter, but because upgrading always seems just out of reach.

After building and launching hundreds of Squarespace sites over the years, I’ve seen folk miss out on better client bookings, newsletter signups, and smoother shop sales because they hesitated on worthwhile enhancements. And it’s no wonder. Plugin and template shopping can quickly impact your wallet if you are not careful.

That’s why our once-a-year Black Friday discount period at Pixelhaze helps make those improvements more accessible. (And before anyone asks, yes, I’ve given in to the season and extended the deals through to 11:59pm, Monday, December 5th.) There is more time, less stress. This is a practical way to avoid waiting for next year while upgrading with a bit of breathing room on cost.

Common Pitfalls

A scenario pops up in my inbox every November: "Hi Elwyn—love the idea, but I’m confused. How do I actually access the discount? Is it automatic? Is there a code? I don’t want to get to checkout and realise I’ve missed it!"

Almost as common, a customer spends an hour browsing, falls for a plugin, then finds it wasn’t included in the deal, or wonders if the discount has lapsed. Or they stack coupon codes at checkout, hoping for an extra percentage off, only to have it break the cart or void the Black Friday rate.

Then, just as painful, a business owner sees the discounted templates but isn’t clear on which will work best for their site. They buy something that doesn’t suit, feeling like it was a missed chance, and wind up using none of the features that would have made a difference.

In the end: lost time, wasted money, no upgrade.

Step-by-Step Fix

1. Go Direct: Start at the Official Pixelhaze Store

Skip the search engines, social media links, or affiliate pop-ups. Go straight to our Pixelhaze Store yourself. All current discounts are listed here, and you’ll avoid out-of-date promo links or coupon codes that may have expired last week.

2. Check What’s Included (And What’s Not)

Every product marked as "In-House" is eligible for the Black Friday price. That means all Pixelhaze-developed Squarespace Templates, Plugins, and Add-ons for the core platform. Third-party items, experiments, or obviously ancient projects? Not in the deal.

Next to each product, you’ll see the original price and the Black Friday rate. No coupon required. It's all applied sitewide, so there's no last-minute hunting for codes that only work for an hour.

3. Use the Search Function Like a Pro

The store’s search works better than many people realise. Looking for a portfolio template? Type "photography." Trying to add a custom gallery? Search for "gallery plugin." Each search returns filtered, eligible deals only, so you won’t find yourself pining for a non-discounted product.

Don’t just rely on scrolling through pages of thumbnails. Pinpoint the type of site or function you want, and you’ll discover the options that fit your next project.

4. Read the Full Feature Notes Instead of Just the Sales Blurb

A deal is only valuable if the product does what you need. Each template and plugin has a "Features" tab under it with everything spelled out: platform version, browser compatibility, install time, and support level.

Don’t skip this bit. Make sure the template aligns with your Squarespace version (7.1 vs. legacy), and double-check any plugin dependencies. If you’re running a shop, confirm e-commerce compatibility.

5. Add Products to Your Cart Without Stacking Discount Codes

There’s no secret combo here. Black Friday deals on our in-house products are set at the cart stage. You cannot combine the holiday discount with other coupon codes or loyalty points. Attempting to stack them usually causes a checkout error and confusion.

If you see the higher price in your cart, the likely culprit is trying to apply multiple discounts or accidentally selecting a third-party item. Remove any conflicting codes, refresh your cart, and you’ll see the savings automatically.

6. Make the Purchase and Download Instantly

There’s no waiting period. Once you complete the checkout, you get an instant download link and a copy in your purchase confirmation email. You don’t need to chase lost downloads or wonder if your purchase has gone missing.

If something goes wrong (dodgy WiFi, spam folder, the works), customer support will resend your digital files promptly. You won’t be left hanging.

What Most People Miss

Very few people mention this: templates and plugins save more than just design time or add a feature. They are an investment in your own time. I’ve watched clients swap out an unwieldy default Squarespace gallery for one of our custom portfolio plugins and suddenly shave 10–15 minutes off every site update. Multiply that out over a year, and you get a long weekend of life back.

On the money side, the right template goes beyond simply looking better. It reflects better on your brand. Conversion goes up. Customers find what they need, stick around longer, and move through your sales process more smoothly. One designer I coached increased her client leads by half by presenting work with a more polished template.

The main point is this: choose tools that give you results, not just nice design. Ask yourself, “Will this save me time? Will my customers have a better experience? Will my updates get faster?” That difference separates surface upgrades from improvements that matter for your business long-term.

The Bigger Picture

Making use of the Pixelhaze Black Friday extension is a smart seasonal buy, but it also encourages you to rethink your process heading into the new year. A website that looks sharp, loads quickly, and works for you instead of making you work for it sets the stage for a stronger 2024. No more waiting for a mythical "slow month" to get things sorted; you can overhaul the critical parts now, for a fraction of the usual cost.

More importantly, you’ll reclaim the time spent fiddling with workarounds. You remove the hassle about what your site can’t do. You get to focus again on your real work: building your business, talking to clients, and delivering on what actually matters.

Over the past decade, I’ve seen plenty of designers and business owners delay upgrades or put off improvements for months on end. Many wish they’d made the move sooner. Take the opportunity while the window is still open.
