Black Friday 2024 kicks off in less than a week, but retailers from Currys, Argos and Debenhams to Boots and Shark have already kicked off their sales. Ecommerce giant Amazon is the latest to launch, with Sony PlayStation and Glossier joining this weekend.
Whether you’re looking to stock up on beauty essentials, replace your old laptop or invest in a new mattress, the IndyBest team is compiling hundreds of deals in our Black Friday shopping guides. But for real-time updates on discounts and news as it drops, our liveblog has you covered.

Stores big and small, from Currys to Argos to John Lewis and Very are already slashing the price of products. While Apple doesn’t participate directly, it offers gift cards worth up to £160 with most purchases, continuing its tradition from previous years.

Save 30% on Le Creuset in Amazon’s Black Friday sale
French brand Le Creuset’s cast iron casserole dish has taken on family-heirloom status in many people’s homes, but its cult cookware doesn’t come cheap. In fact, police were even called after a recent Le Creuset warehouse sale brought four-hour queues. So, this sizeable price cut for Black Friday is not to be missed.
Le Creuset enamelled cast iron round casserole dish: Was £209, now £178, Amazon.co.uk
Discounted by nearly 30 per cent in Amazon’s early Black Friday sale, the dish is suitable for one-pot meals and can be used on any cooking surface. In Rachael’s review, she said: “It was perfect for making slow-roasted dishes such as casseroles, but we also whipped up a loaf of bread, which cooked evenly and with a nice, crispy crust.” Available in a number of colourways, the classic cerise shade currently has the lowest price point.
When is Black Friday 2024?
Falling the day after Thanksgiving in the US, Black Friday marks the start of the pre-Christmas shopping season. In fact, the first use of “Black Friday” in retail can be traced all the way back to the Fifties, when shops shifted from losses (in the red) to profits (in the black).
In the decades since, what started as a one-day sale has evolved into a four-day event (and, in some cases, a whole month of deals) that’s marked internationally and concludes on what is known as Cyber Monday.
This year, the mammoth sale will kick off on Friday 29 November. Lasting a full four days, the deals will end on Cyber Monday (2 December).
The Glossier you perfume is on sale for Black Friday
Glossier’s you perfume needs little introduction. The cult scent has been a bestseller since its launch in 2017, with the product’s name is meant to illustrate “you” as the first ingredient in the scent. The brand rarely host sales, but its Black Friday sale has just kicked off with 25 per cent off almost everything sitewide.
Glossier you perfume: Was £112, now £90, Glossier.com
The fragrance is designed to smell different on every user, as it enhances your skin’s natural scent. There’s three base notes (ambrette for warmth, ambrox for a smoothness and musk), as well as top notes of iris root and pink pepper. The iris root adds a woody scent while the pink pepper adds a bit of spice. The pastel pink bottle will take pride of place on your dressing table.
