What is Black Friday?

A commercial tradition that started over the pond in the United States, Black Friday is a shopping event held on the last Friday in November when big-ticket items across many stores have their prices dramatically reduced (think tablets, smartphones and the latest must-have toys), giving savvy shoppers the opportunity to snap up deals in time for Christmas.

What began as a simple post-Thanksgiving sale quickly became known as Black Friday due to the stampedes often caused by shoppers in order to bag the best bargains. As Black Friday’s popularity has grown it has become a much broader event, with sales on a huge range of items, from clothing to electrical goods, toys and everything in between.

What is Cyber Monday?

Cyber Monday is, not all that surprisingly, the Monday after Black Friday. Whilst the concept is very similar (expect big reductions on sought-after goods), it is more specifically focused at online retailers and aimed at those last-minute Christmas shoppers who hate the hustle and bustle of the high street.

When is Black Friday 2020?

This year, Black Friday will be held on 27 November.

How long does Black Friday last?

Good question! Though the answer is a little more vague than you might like. Traditionally, Black Friday was a one-day-only sale held on, you guessed it, a Friday. However, as its popularity grew, savvy retailers started dropping prices ahead of the event and prolonging the discounts long afterwards too. This has resulted in Black Friday becoming more of a concept than a specific day, so anyone after a bargain will want to keep an eye out well ahead of the 29 November and well into the week after too.
