For mega savings across some of your favourite brands, look no further
Black Friday is just around the corner and, lucky for you, we've been scouting out the best John Lewis deals early so you don't miss any bargains.
What was originally an American tradition now happens across the globe, with most major retailers discounting a whole range of their best-selling products just in time for Christmas.
Add it to your diary: Black Friday is always the day after Thanksgiving ends. That means Black Friday this year will fall on Friday 27 November. Not free? Cyber Monday (that's Monday 30th this year) will also boast a whole range of purse-friendly savings.
As you've probably guessed, most of the sales will be held online this year thanks to coronavirus and government restrictions constantly changing.
Why John Lewis, you ask? It's one of the most reliable retailers on the block, and rarely holds mega sales, which means the discounts on household names are even more sought-after come Black Friday. Plus, fun fact: it'll keep it's price match pledge across the weekend.
Want to be updated on the very best deals, bargains and buys? You're in the right place—we'll be constantly refreshing this hub with all the best John Lewis Black Friday deals. You're so welcome.

With regard to grabbing the best bargains, John Lewis actually advises shopping online, saying on their site: “You may not always see these offers in-store as it’s quicker to make price changes online, but do check if you're visiting your nearest John Lewis & Partners and we’ll honour our online price in each case if the price has gone down."

How long will the discounts last?
Good question—and perhaps longer than you'd expect. Black Friday discounts start on—yep, you guessed it—Black Friday. As we mentioned above, this year that's on 27th November. Then, discounts run all through that weekend up until midnight on Cyber Monday, which this year falls on 30th November. But get in quick—many deals may have sold out by then.
