For those of you who don't know, this Friday 25th November is Black Friday over in the States and it seems as though Britain are jumping on the band wagon this year. It's basically a manic shopping day of major discounts and special offers. With only four weeks to go till Christmas, it all helps with the penny pinching so if you choose to join in, I urge you to plan your day with military precision and know what your going for (making sure to do your research on what is and isn't included in the discounts to avoid disappointment) or equally if you're doing your shopping from your sofa, plan out which sites you want to visit and get to it early because it's likely that A. The websites will crash with the amount of traffic or B. What you want will be sold out by the time you've dragged yourself out of bed at midday.
So with that in mind, this is my pick of the best places to visit and the best deals.
Selfridges - online and in store (up to 10% off beauty and up to 20% off everything else) although check the terms and conditions beforehand because a lot of the big designers aren't included. Boo.
Amazon - they're running loads of 15 minute deals from Monday to Friday this week on everything from watches to wine kits (yes, really) so you can start the bargaining early.
Apple - As usual, Apple are keeping schtum about what they will be offering this Friday but not one to disappoint, it's always worth a look.
Currys, PC World - Offering a '100 hour price crash' from Thursday 3pm till Monday. Great if you're in the market for any home appliances, a new PC or music bits and bobs (I know I'm not the only one with headphones hanging by a thread).
I'll keep scouting the net for other brands jumping on the Black Friday band wagon and if I hear of anything I'll post it here.
