With less than two weeks to go until Black Friday’s main event, we’re already seeing hundreds of early deals from major brands and retailers, including Currys, Argos, Boots, Shark and more, so you can start your shopping right away.

Whether you’re looking to stock up on beauty essentials, replace your old laptop, or invest in a new mattress, the team has been compiling the most impressive deals so far on every product category imaginable in our Black Friday shopping guides. But for a real-time stream of discounts and news, our liveblog has you covered.

The Black Friday sales could save you cash on a TV, toys, jewellery and furniture, 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.

Upgrade your TV with early Black Friday deals

Black Friday is the best time of the year to save on pricey products - see mattresses, bed frames, phones and headphones. If you’re in the market for a television set, our tech critics have been busy rounding up the best deals on models ahead of the main event.

Dubbed the best for picture quality in our guide to top 4K TVs, this Panasonic model has been reduced by £200 at John Lewis. In their review, our tester said of this model: “Part of the success of this TV is down to the processor, which is smart enough to know when you’re watching sport, for instance, and can adjust both the picture and sound accordingly.” With the 50in version now just shy of £600, now is the time to invest.

The Ninja Black Friday sale has landed

Ninja is a giant of the appliance world, with the brand selling everything from air fryers and blenders to saucepan sets and dessert makers. Whatever you’re in the market for, Ninja has just kicked off its mega Black Friday event, and I’ve plucked out two of the best savings below.

Ninja creami ice cream and frozen dessert maker: Was £199.99, now £149, Ninjakitchen.co.uk

The coveted Ninja creami is now £50 cheaper. When Amira reviewed the creami, she was blown away by how simple the machine was to use. “Not only was the process of adding the ingredients to the tub easy (it doesn’t get simpler than pouring everything in together), the spin speed and duration of the process are all taken care of, thanks to the preset programs,” she said.

If you’re hungry for a bargain, you’ll be pleased to know our favourite tried-and-tested slow cooker now has 20 per cent off. Rachael said in the review: “Whether you’re a keen cook or you lack space and want an appliance that does as much as possible in one machine, the Ninja foodi possiblecooker 8-in-1 slow cooker is an absolute must-have item for your kitchen.”

Sizzling savings on air fryers

Air fryers have become a staple in most kitchens across the country (including my own). But if you’re late to the party, Black Friday offers the perfect opportunity to save on the popular appliance, with deals on the likes Ninja, Philips and Tefal.

Nothing makes me happier than when one of IndyBest’s top-rated products is on sale, and that’s exactly what’s happened with this Salter air fryer. Considered the best air fryer, this “Salter style covers all bases with its relatively large baskets, countless cooking options and incredibly easy-to-use design,” noted the review. And with a 32 per cent discount from Amazon, this seems like a no-brainer buy to me.

Air fryers don’t have to be clunky and dominate your kitchen counter space. There are sleek, space-saving options out there, too – like this compact air fryer from Ninja, which now comes with a 30 per cent discount at Currys. Another one that received rave reviews when reviewed by the testing team, it was noted that despite “using up to 75 per cent less fat than traditional frying methods, you still get a good crunch. Its generous 3.8l basket can fit a medium-sized chicken and allows you to air fry, roast, reheat and dehydrate”. What more could you want?

Will Pandora have a Black Friday 2024 sale?

When it comes to jewellery, Pandora needs little introduction. Founded in 1982, the label began as a small, family-run jeweller in Copenhagen before it became the bemouth name it is today.

From personalised pieces to collaborations with the likes of Disney and Game of Thrones, there are styles to suit every taste, age and occasion. Sitting in the mid-range price point of the market, Pandora’s jewellery is more accessible than some other jewellery brands, and often even more so during Black Friday.

From the dates to mark in your calendar to the best deals to expect, here’s everything you need to know about Pandora’s Black Friday sale 2024.

When will the Pandora Black Friday 2024 sale start?

Previous Pandora Black Friday sales have seen up to 30 per cent off almost everything
