When is Black Friday 2024?
This year the fun and discount games began on November 29.
When does Black Friday end?
The event always runs until the Monday afterwards, known as Cyber Monday. This year that is December 2.
That said, many retailers have allowed their Black Friday sales to turn into pre-Christmas sales, sometimes running onto Boxing Day and even January. Reductions can fluctuate so if you see something you like at an agreeable price – don’t wait.
Why is it called Black Friday?
The shopping phenomenon began across the Atlantic in the US, taking place the day after Americans gather for Thanksgiving. It’s now incredibly popular here, thanks to the date’s proximity to Christmas.
Many consider the Black Friday sales as a warm-up to festive shopping, which makes sense – few would turn down the opportunity to stretch their budget even further.
