Black Friday 2022: Everything you need to know about the biggest shopping day of the year

It's that time of year again when bargain lovers can get their hands on incredible products at a discounted price. Every year people go wild for Black Friday sales at retailers in-store and online as the cost of high-value items are cut.

We have all seen the videos of the chaos at supermarkets in previous years of savvy shoppers queuing up - and in some cases even fighting one another- to get particular items which have jaw-dropping discounts. With the cost of living crisis also at the forefront of many people's minds, and Christmas around the corner, it could be a good opportunity to stock up on gifts without breaking the bank.

Black Friday 2022 is in November this year, and will be on the last Friday of the month. A lot has changed over the years as customers are more likely to shop from the comfort of their own homes online, rather than rushing to stores.

Early Black Friday deals have already been released on Amazon and Currys which include a wide range of products-including air fryers. Additionally retailers like Argos, John Lewis, Very and supermarkets will also take part in the big annual event.

When is Black Friday 2022?

In 2022, Black Friday will fall on Friday, November 25.

To make the most of the 24-hour event, customers can shop online from midnight onwards, while some stores may open earlier for the big day.

Why do we have Black Friday in the UK?

Black Friday is one of the biggest shopping days in the UK. Although it originally began in the US, it has become an annual event across the nation and in several other countries.

It also marks the start of the Christmas shopping season and gives consumers a chance to bag some cheap deals on an array of products.

What about Cyber Monday?

Traditionally Cyber Monday falls on the Monday after Black Friday. That means it will take place this year on Monday, November 28.

It's traditionally an online-only event, but in recent years there are many deals to be found in-store at some of the UK's biggest companies.

What are the best deals you have got in previous Black Friday sales? Let us know in the comments.
