Black Friday Deals 2019: What to expect?
Are you ready? It’s finally the month for Black Friday UK deals in 2019, and the November 29 sales event is in sight. This year, Black Friday falls on Friday 29 November but – as with every year now – many of the best Black Friday deals have already started to appear.
Laptops, games consoles and clothes are all sold at a fraction of the price – perfect timing for early Christmas shopping.
When is the Black Friday?
The ‘official’ date for Black Friday is November 29, followed by Cyber Monday on December 2, but Amazon has gone early: it’s announced an eight-day sales period from November 22, a week before the sales event itself.
Where to find the best deals?
This year, Amazon has confirmed Black Friday will be its ‘biggest ever’, and as on Amazon Prime Day, Amazon Prime members will get early access to a selection of Lightning Deals, so if you’re after some exclusive deals, such as some amazing offers on Macbooks, then it’s worth becoming a Prime member during this time (you can sign up for a free 30-day trial, don’t thank us for the hack!)
Our second advice would be: sign up to email updates from retailers, download their apps and follow them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. That way, you’ll get notifications that keep you in the loop. (They often release early deals, and vouchers via newsletters)
What are the best deals this year?
We can definitely expect some of the best Amazon Black Friday 2019 deals to be on Amazon devices and services. That means savings on Echo speakers and screens, Fire TV Sticks and Fire Tablets, Kindle e-readers, and discounts on services like Kindle Unlimited, Amazon Music, Amazon Video and Audible. We can also expect savings on Ring Video Door Bells and Blink Home Security Camera Systems as Amazon owns Ring and Blink.
Some retailers have started posting a few deals, to get you ready for Black Friday (or to get your money early, before there’s much competition). We’ll collect them here, for you to decide if it’s worth spending your cash now.
At the moment, the only strong contender is Argos, so these are the only deals we’ve listed. But as Black Friday gets nearer, the other retailers will likely post their own competitive offerings.
LG E9 65-inch OLED TV £3,499 £2,799 at Currys LG’s ‘floating’ glass display goes under the knife, with this £700 saving at Currys. It has the same panel and processor as the C9, but its uniquely gorgeous design is now available for less.
Moto G7 Power from Amazon.co.uk | SIM-free | £159.95 With one of the largest battery’s on the market, it can outlast the vast majority of flagships. But, at a price well under £200 and packed with a massive battery, expect a clunky and heavy device.
iPhone 8 from Amazon.co.uk | SIM-free | £479
The iPhone 8 has been steadily decreasing in price since we saw the release of the iPhone 11. Mixing affordability with high-level Apple specs, this will be ideal for the Apple fan wanting a cheap upgrade.
Anker Soundcore Flare £69.99 £49.49 at Amazon See £20 cut off the price of thisportable speaker, which comes dressed in a fancy Christmas box. It’s waterproof, loud for its size, and it comes with its own LED light show, making it the perfect gift for any of your friend!
Bose Home Speaker 500 | £399 £299 at Amazon UK Amazon is offering the Bose Home Speaker 500 for under £300 ahead of Black Friday. Bose is renowned for its high quality speakers, and this model offers no different. From wall to wall stereo sound from a single speaker to integrated Google Assistant and Alexa, this is a smart speaker with serious audio punch.
