If you're on the lookout for great Black Friday deals, our guide to where to shop and what to add to your basket will have you prepped and ready for this year's Black Friday event.
When live, you'll find discounts on everything from bestselling mattresses at Emma to money off Ninja air fryers, reductions on Shark and Dyson vacuum cleaners, as well as deals to be found on Kenwood and KitchenAid stand mixers, Sage and De'Longhi kitchen appliances.
Whether you want to use the deals below to save cash on a major purchase or to spread the cost of Christmas by shopping in ongoing sales, these deals are a great opportunity to shop for less. We've spent countless hours trying and testing everything from sofa beds to coffee machines, air fryers to mattresses, so if anyone knows what they're on about - and what's worth shopping for - it's us.
While many of us know that Black Friday officially occurs on 29th November, for the last few years retailers have started their sales earlier and earlier and, with that in mind, here are the current live sales you can shop right now!

FAQs
Are Black Friday deals any good?
Whether you're looking to get ahead and save on Christmas gifts by nabbing a deal on one of the best coffee machines for the coffee aficionado in your life or looking to secure an essential for the new year like a discounted vacuum, Black Friday can be a great time to make a saving.
Black Friday is a particularly great time to shop furniture and decor, but did you know that it's also a great time of year to save on items like mattresses, furniture, and gardening essentials? Basically, any big-ticket item you've been putting off purchasing will probably have some money off.
And, it's a great time to think savvy and look ahead to next Christmas, whether by snapping up one of the best artificial Christmas trees on sale, or finding a great deal on a luxury advent calendar that didn't quite sell out.
Of course, it can be easy to get swayed by the urgency of big discounts and limited-time offers, but doing a little research before you buy can ensure you don't make a costly mistake by purchasing a product that doesn't quite fit your requirements.
That's where our 'best of' guides are here to help, curating a selection of the Ideal Home team's tried and tested favourites in each category, and offering plenty of buying advice to make sure you know exactly what specifications to look out for before you shop:

How can I avoid being ripped off on Black Friday?
‘It’s easy to get carried away, so make a list of what you want in advance,’ advises Danny Munday, general manager of HotUKDeals. It also pays to read reviews and compare prices of the models you like, so you know you’re getting a genuine deal. ‘Check the shipping costs before you order, too,’ adds Danny. ‘Some brands charge so much for postage, it cancels out any savings.’
Are Black Friday deals as good as they seem?
We predict there probably will be some worthwhile deals in January – last year we spotted cheap Nespresso machines, budget-friendly mattresses and even top-rated vacuums at less than half price.
However, some retailers do use sales events like this as an opportunity to clear out old stock, or even increase the prices of items beforehand to make the deals look better on the day. So make a list before the day itself and compare prices, to make sure you're actually getting a good deal.
When is Cyber Monday 2024?
Cyber Monday falls on the Monday directly after Black Friday, which this year will be Monday 2nd December.
What is Cyber Monday?
Cyber Monday is a digital-only discount shopping event that always takes place on the Monday following Black Friday. It started out as a tech-dominated event, however, in recent years we've seen homeware brands continue their deals over to Cyber Monday deals, rebranding it as 'Cyber Monday.'
Cyber Monday, was introduced for the first time only in 2005 to encourage people to shop online. With Black Friday becoming more than just a one-day event (more like one-week, if not month), the lines between Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping events have become somewhat blurred in recent years.
