It appears Adele's new album may arrive just ahead of Black Friday.

According to a report from album sales tracking site HITS Daily Double, the singer's new LP will be released on Nov. 20, the week before Thanksgiving, preceded by the lead single earlier that same month.

This latest update follows a report last month that Adele's label had been aiming to release the album in November.

While reps for Adele have yet to confirm a release date, a source with knowledge of the singer's plans tells Variance the label had long hoped to have the record out by Black Friday (Nov. 27), due to the busy holiday shopping season.

Additionally, the HDD report suggests Adele has a deal with NBC for four exclusive performances on the network, including Saturday Night Live and a primetime special.
