What is Black Friday?

Black Friday is a weekend-long global sales event that originated in the US and takes place the day after Thanksgiving, with major discounts being offered online and in-store at most major retailers.

This year, the Black Friday sale starts Friday, November 26, with most businesses continuing the sales over the weekend and finishing the following Monday – which is referred to as Cyber Monday – this makes it a four-day sales extravaganza.

The proximity to the festive season makes this sale extremely popular with savvy shoppers, as they can ensure they’re ticking off their Christmas shopping lists with some steep discounts.

Does John Lewis participate in Black Friday?

Yes, they do. John Lewis is a top participator in this event, offering monumental discounts across a range of categories.

These categories include (but are not limited to) homewares, toys, fashion, beauty, tech, and appliances – so there will be plenty of opportunities to do some present shopping as well as pick up any items you’ve been eyeing up over the year.

What Black Friday deals can we expect from John Lewis in 2021?

While John Lewis is keeping the specifics of their sale hush-hush, they have published a Black Friday page full of tips that will help you score the biggest savings. This page will also be updated on the day with hot deals, so we recommend bookmarking it in advance if you’re planning on shopping at John Lewis on the big day.

As we already mentioned, there’s no real way to know for sure what will be discounted in this years sale. If the past year’s sales are anything to go off, however, we’re expecting to see prices slashed off all of their major categories – with tech and home appliances being the most popular with consumers this year.
