Black Friday 2024 live: Latest offers from Samsung, Dyson, Le Creuset and more
Brands and retailers are kicking off their Black Friday sales early, with deals on Ghd, Ninja and more
While Black Friday traditionally takes place on 29 November, in recent years the sales event has morphed into a month-long shopping bonanza. Hundreds of early deals have been dropping across major brands and retails over the last couple of weeks (Currys, Argos, Boots and Shark, to name a few), so you can start your shopping right away.
As always, the IndyBest team has been compiling all the best deals in our Black Friday shopping guides. Plus, for a real-time stream of discounts and Black Friday news, our liveblog has you covered.
This is your chance to score savings on a new TV, a high-spec laptop, a new mattress, and cult favourite beauty products, but the steepest discounts aren’t necessarily the best deals. The most impressive discounts are those on products that are actually worth your money, so we’ll make sure to bring you offers on items we’ve tested ourselves.
So far, Samsung has started its sale, Ghd is offering up to 25 per cent off everything, Oodie has 50 per cent off blanket hoodies and Dyson is offering hundreds of pounds off its products. Elsewhere, you can find bargains at Boots, Currys, Argos, Lookfantastic and more, in what some are calling their biggest Black Friday sale ever.
We’ve been covering the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales for years here at IndyBest, so, we know how to spot a good deal from a dud. If it’s got a decent discount (and it’s worth your money), you’ll find it here.

Sonos Black Friday-specific deals are yet to drop, but while we wait, here’s a deal I’ve just spotted on a top-rated soundbar, which comes tried and tested by Alex, one of our tech critics.

Now available with a whopping £180 discount, the Arc premium smart sound bar was the winner in our review of the best soundbars. Described by our reviewer as “a beast of a soundbar, in both size and sound”, it comes with 11 digital amplifiers which “fire out in all directions, for a completely immersive Dolby Atmos experience”.

When is Pandora’s Black Friday sale?
With previous Pandora sales seeing up to 30 per cent off almost everything, this year’s Black Friday event is certainly one for Pandora fans to bookmark. While it’s yet to be confirmed when the sale will begin, the brand normally launches its offers on the Thursday before Black Friday’s main event. That said, in 2023, subscribers could snap up early Black Friday deals from Monday 20 November.

Save £300 on this LG TV
After a shiny new TV? Black Friday serves at the perfect opportunity to save on top 4K and OLED sets. Samsung has launched its early Black Friday deals, and you can grab savings from third-party retailers too, from Argos to AO.
Steve, one of our resident tech experts, has been overseeing our Black Friday TV shopping guide, where he’s been popping the best early deals. Case in point, here’s a £300 saving on one from LG.
LG C4, 55in: Was £1,599, now £1,299, Currys.co.uk
The latest model in the C series of LG TVs gets a £300 discount in the Currys Black Friday sale. Launched earlier this year, the LG C4 is an impressive 4K display with self-lit OLED pixels capable of perfectly dark blacks, bright highlights and rich colour reproduction. If you’re after something smaller there’s a £400 discount on the 48in model too, as well as savings on the larger sets.

Apple Watch Black Friday saving
The Apple Watch series 10 is the best Apple Watch yet, according to our tech writer David Phelan. Here’s a Black Friday deal at Very, which will save you a modest £20 on the new wearable.
Apple Watch series 10 (GPS) 42mm rose gold: Was £399, now £379, Very.co.uk
In his review, David said: “While at first glance it looks similar to series 9, the bigger display, thinner profile and handsome new colours make the series 10 a lot more appealing”. He added: “The features that have defined the Apple Watch, from subtle notifications, brilliant mapping capabilities on your wrist and above all, great health features, are all at their best here.”

Save 23% on The Ordinary’s best-sellers
The Ordinary doesn’t officially take part in Black Friday, even going so far as to close its doors during the sale to remind us to “shop slowly” and avoid waste.
In a classic case of having its peptide serum and applying it, however, the skincare brand is still discounting a huge range of its best-selling products by 23 per cent for the month of November.
While I appreciate The Ordinary’s sentiment surrounding the Black Friday mayhem, I also like saving money on hyaluronic acid.
Here’s £30 off a Ninja air fryer
Retailer AO launched its Black Friday deals last week, with discounts now available across its expansive range of TVs, beauty products, home appliances and more.
If you’re one of the dozen people in the UK who doesn’t already own an air fryer, here’s a £30 discount on one we’d recommend.
Ninja Foodi Dual Zone air fryer: Was £149, now £119, AO.com
The 7.6l Ninja Foodi Dual Zone air fryer has the full suite of features you’d expect: like timers telling you when to add food, shake things up and take things out, automatic switch-off, and two cooking zones so everything finishes at the same time. It’s also dishwasher friendly, so you save on washing up too.
