When is Black Friday 2020?

This year Black Friday will fall on Friday 27 November, and the event will run over the weekend until 30 November, which is Cyber Monday.

While the main event runs for a few days, we’re already experiencing the longest lead-up ever, as big brands and retailers have launched their early Black Friday deals weeks before the big day.

Amazon launched its early bird sale a whole month before Black Friday – two weeks earlier than last year – while other retailers such as Boots and Superdrug have also started their sales.

How to get the best Argos Black Friday deals

If you have a Nectar card, you can collect points on all Argos Black Friday purchases. If you don’t have it already, download the Nectar App before Black Friday begins for access to early offers too.

Keep your eyes peeled on our guide to be informed of the early offers available, as you may be able to tick off your shopping list earlier than planned.

We’d recommend making a note of what you’re looking for to avoid any impulse purchases you may later regret.

How long will the Black Friday deals last?

Last year the Black Friday sale was the longest running event to date, lasting two weeks. Amazon launched its first deals a month early for 2020, so has already topped 2019, with retailers such as Boots and Very following suit. While most deals will end on Cyber Monday, the 30 November, some brand continue their sales after that date.

Stay ahead of the rush and read our round-up of the full list of stores expected to participate, from fashion, homewares, tech, beauty and gaming brands, such as Asos, AO, BT, John Lewis & Partners and M&S.

It’s the best time to start your Christmas shopping or splash out on bulkier, pricier items you’ve had your eye on such as sofas, TVs and home devices.
