While Black Friday doesn’t officially kick off until November 24, it seems many retailers have already begun releasing their deals and discounts nice and early, so savvy shoppers can get a head start.
It’s safe to say Martin Lewis and his team of experts know how to spot a good bargain, and on the MSE website, they’ve rounded up the best deals from some of the biggest retailers ahead of Black Friday, as well as what to expect on the big day.
Although the Money Saving Experts are keen to share the latest deals with bargain hunters, they have warned shoppers not to ‘get caught up in the hype’ of Black Friday, adding: “Before spending, ask yourself, do I need it? Can I afford it? If the answer is no to any of those, DON’T buy it.”
The money-saving team also suggests using free tools, such as Google Shopping, PriceSpy, PriceRunner, and the Amazon price-tracking tool, CamelCamelCamel to compare prices of products to ensure you get the best deal.
Rounded up below are a list of retailers and deals Martin and his team of experts have picked out ahead of Black Friday which are well worth adding to those baskets! The team have also picked out cheaper comparison 'dud' deals they've spotted elsewhere, so you get the best discount.
