They came, they saw and we all shopped. Both Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales are not in the rearview mirror but some retailers are still offering deals on their online storefronts. So in case you haven't quite finished your Christmas shopping yet, you could still get lucky with some decent savings.

We saw significant price cuts across appliances, tech, travel accessories and fashion over the Cyber Weekend sale (and then some), but you can take a look at our retailer list below to check if any of them have extended their sales.

If not, the next big sale of the year is Boxing Day, when practically all of them will have slashed prices again.

When is Black Friday 2024?

Black Friday 2024 kicks off officially on Friday November 29. That puts Cyber Monday on November 2.

That said, Aussies are usually treated to a longer sale period than just four days. Retailers have previously jumped the gun and started early deals about a week ahead, but these can change, with the best offers showing up only on the four main days of the sale.

What time do Black Friday deals start?

Black Friday deals go live from midnight (12am) AEDT on Friday November 29th, 2024.

We’ve found that the best Black Friday deals generally land on the week of the sale itself, while the most popular products will likely only be discounted on November 29. In some cases, you might spot a discount being advertised at the start of November. If you spot a price that you like ahead of Black Friday, it’s worth going for it, particularly a tech item as stocks are always going to be questionable.

Discounts that are advertised earlier often receive far less competition, which means you can get your hands on them before the crowds swarm. We do recommend keeping your item in its box until the Black Friday deals have ended completely, in case a much better price arises later in the month. Your previous purchase can always be returned.

How does Black Friday work?

On Black Friday, you will find radical savings advertised in physical stores, while online retailers will offer discounts or promotional codes to their patrons and members. Certain retailers such as eBay require you to be a member in order to secure product deals before Black Friday rolls around, while having your payment details ready will ensure you don’t miss out on hot items.

As with any other shopping mission, it helps to be organised.

What will be the best Black Friday 2024 deals?

As proven over recent years, the two product categories to receive the best Black Friday deals have been tech and fashion. However, Black Friday discounts can apply to nearly any product you can imagine – from furniture to fashion, tech to travel – so if there's something in particular you've got your eye, we'd recommend waiting until Black Friday itself to see if it gets a discount.

Black Friday 2024 can be a great time to pick up a new mattress, for example, or some fresh gear for your home office setup. You'll also no doubt find some great savings on a range of grooming and beauty tools, and if your training gear could do with a refresh, you'll be able to snag some new t-shirts and shorts for less. And, don't forget your four-legged friends, as there will likely be a range of discounts on pet toys, beds, food and more.

From simple ereaders to fancy tablets, smartwatches and smartphones, headphones and so much more... there's really going to be a lot to keep savvy shoppers happy.

And consider the sale is late in November, it's going to be a great time to finish off your Christmas shopping too.

What were the best Black Friday deals from 2023?

The 2023 Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales had incredible offers across a range of departments and stores. Some retailers kicked off their sales weeks earlier than the Black Friday date, giving shoppers more of a chance to bag some early deals.

The Black Friday sales were full of offers on TVs, electric toothbrushes, ovens, fashion, headsets, fridges, LEGO and much more. We anticipate something similar in 2024, so keep this page bookmarked so you can see all the deals on offer when they go live.

What is Black Friday?

After becoming a part of US shopping culture in the late 1980s, the first Black Friday happened in Australia in 2013. This nationwide buying frenzy has been intensifying and expanding in our country with each new year. In 2019, online purchases spiked with a 42% increase over Black Friday’s four-day weekend. In 2020, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) revealed that retailers saw a 13.2% increase in overall turnover, despite the pandemic, with Aussies spending about AU$8 billion over the entire weekend.

This year, we’re expecting that sales records will be broken again, with in-person shopping now back in full swing, and online shopping the new norm. Retailers are now looking forward to massive turnovers, while shoppers eagerly anticipate which bargains they might be able to snag when the time comes - perhaps some of the deepest discounts of the year.

But how did it all start across the Pacific in the first place? Black Friday marks the Friday after Thanksgiving in the US, kicking off the start of the Christmas shopping period. It has now evolved into a global shopping extravaganza where staggering discounts and huge deals are offered by thousands of retailers.

While highly popular among those who prefer to shop from physical businesses, having historically led to literal stampedes through shop doors, Black Friday is a fixture in the world of online shopping too. Black Friday now competes with Boxing Day as Australia’s biggest annual shopping event.

How to find the best Black Friday 2024 deals

Getting the best deals on Black Friday 2024 depends on the amount of research you’ve done before the day. Write up a list of items you’d love to own, and determine what you want to get from the sale to hone your focus down.

When you know what you’re looking for, take the next step by finding a brand or model that suits you, but look at what features and specs you need and budget accordingly. You can also check previous sales to see if your shopping list aligns with previous prices to keep things realistic.

The next step is to consider which things you could do without if they’re sold out on Black Friday, and which things you’d really love to own and couldn’t stand to risk losing. When the heat is on, you’ll know what to look for.

Also be aware to widen your gaze and check that there aren’t better prices on your wish list items elsewhere before you buy. Bundles and free gifts are bonus perks to look out for from retailers who are competing for your purchases on Black Friday. Be sure to check other retailers' offers before buying, but rest assured, you can rely on us for details on the biggest value savings.

And, while you're unlikely to need to be quick on the draw to buy something before stock runs out, it can be a good idea to make sure your card information is saved on your device, so you can enter it all quickly and easily to make your purchase.

Amazon Black Friday 2024: get a free Prime account

Amazon is one website that consistently offers great savings around Black Friday on pretty much every category of item the online retail giant deals in. These discounts are typically the best of the year and equal the record-low prices on its own devices seen during Prime Day, if not better.

There will be a dedicated Black Friday deals page on Amazon Australia where all the offers will be collated as the sale progresses. If you think you're going to be shopping quite a lot on Amazon during the big November sale, it would help to be a Prime member. Prime members have previously been able to shop discounts about 30 minutes ahead of everyone else, and there are plenty of offers that are exclusive to subscribers.

You can sign up for a Prime membership now as Amazon sweetens the deal by offering a 30-day free trial – which will cover the sale period – and you can cancel any time. This will let you take advantage of Amazon's Black Friday sale and save you money on the Prime subscription.

This year’s second Prime Day from October 8 to October 13 was Amazon’s biggest ever event so far, in terms of deals and engagement. Black Friday is shaping up to be just as big.
