Black Friday sales have already started, even though the actual shopping day is still two weeks away!
At the moment, many top UK stores like John Lewis, Currys, and Boots are offering thousands of Black Friday deals. However, some major stores, such as Amazon, haven't joined in yet.
This early rush can be a bit confusing, overwhelming, and even frustrating, especially with so many stores pushing their discounts at you.
Black Friday 2024 is almost here, and while some people in the UK are sceptical about the discounts (a study by Currys shows 57% of Brits doubt the deals and 65% see it as a 'con'), there are still some great offers to be found. Here, we’ll explain all the key dates, when the sales begin and end, and which retailers already have deals live.
Key Dates for Black Friday 2024
Black Friday: This year, Black Friday is on 29th November 2024. It always happens on the last Friday of November, right after Thanksgiving in the US.
Cyber Monday: Takes place on 2nd December 2024, the Monday after Black Friday.
When Do Sales Start for UK Retailers?
Most UK retailers start their Black Friday sales well before the actual date. This year, some stores started as early as 17th October, while many others began around 1st November. This means you can already shop for deals even though Black Friday is weeks away.
When Do Black Friday Sales End?
The sales officially wrap up on Cyber Monday (2nd December 2024), but some promotions can extend into December, creating a longer sales period.
How Long Will Black Friday Sales Last?
Black Friday and Cyber Monday have merged into one extended shopping event, with many deals lasting beyond the main sale period into early December. If you see a good deal, it’s wise to grab it right away, but new discounts may keep popping up.
