Get set for our Big Black Friday Sale
Everyone's favourite sale rolls into town this November. Here's a sneak peek of the tech you can expect along with tips on how to make the most of every moment.
It's only natural to be curious
We answer all the big questions in our insider's guide to Black Friday with everything you need to know before the deals drop.
Why is it called Black Friday?
Our story starts in 1950s Philadelphia, where police used the term 'Black Friday' to describe the frenzy of post-Thanksgiving shopping. What began as a nickname for a hectic day soon became the world's most famous retail event.
In 2026, Black Friday is less about the rush and more about discovering great deals on the things you've had your eye on. With weeks of offers on the biggest names in tech, you'll have plenty of time to plan ahead and get your Christmas shopping sorted. You might even find a little tech treat for yourself.
How long does Black Friday Sale last?
Don't let the name trick you into thinking it's just for one day.
Black Friday Sale starts in early November and goes for several weeks.
Which gives you plenty of time to study tech features, compare and refine your wishlist - all before checkout.
What tech goodies will I find?

- mobile phones and tablets
- home internet plans
- mobile broadband

- gaming consoles and games
