If you’re a keen shopper, you’ll know that November is the most exciting time of the year.

It’s the month when the biggest sale comes flooding in, from retailers big and small. A time to whizz through your shopping list and get everything from household essentials, big purchases and fun festive spends all in one fell swoop.

When is Black Friday?

The brilliant and bonkers sales event takes place at the same time every year - the final Friday of November. This year, that is November 24.

What is Black Friday?

The sale’s name can be traced back to mid-70s America, when the streets of Philadelphia turned black with traffic fumes as shoppers shopped the huge sales that retailers laid on the day after Thanksgiving. As a nation of bargain-lovers, it didn’t take much for the concept to catch on in the UK. Helpfully timed just before the festive rush gets underway, Black Friday sales are now a major fixture in the shopping calendar.
