Globally stores will be slashing prices after the holiday, allowing consumers to bag incredible deals ahead of the festive season.
Offers usually continue over the weekend – now commonly referred to as Cyber weekend – ending at midnight on Cyber Monday.
Is Amazon taking part in Black Friday this year?
Yes, we'd expect so.
In previous years Amazon has put a large amount of its stock on sale during the annual event.
Last year Amazon slashed prices on its own-brand devices as well smart TVs, home appliances, beauty products, headphones and even chocolates.
So, get ready to jump onto the Amazon site as soon as those deals go live.
If you're a US shopper you can find Amazon US Black Friday deals too.
What to expect in the Amazon Black Friday 2023 sale?
The Amazon Black Friday sale is a great chance to treat yourself or to get a head start on your Christmas shopping.
Based on past years, you'll likely find big savings on TVs, games consoles, laptops, headphones, smart watches, electronic appliances, clothing and beauty products.
In previous years we've seen discounts on practically every product group you can think of.
Some of the most popular items in Amazon's sale worth checking out are:
- Electric toothbrushes
- Smart speakers
- Apple Airpods
- Echo Show
- Vacuum cleaners
- Echo dots
- Fire tablets
- Smart home appliances
When does the Amazon Black Friday 2023 sale end?
Traditionally Black Friday deals end at midnight, but over the years retailers have extended the discounting period for longer.
Amazon generally continues most of its big Black Friday savings all the way through the following weekend and into Cyber Monday – the digital-only version of Black Friday.
The retailer even launches new lightning deals during that time, which are only available while stocks last.
When is Cyber Monday 2023 and is Amazon taking part?
Cyber Monday falls on November 27 this year, and it's usually the final day for shoppers to make savings.
Amazon usually offers deals throughout the Cyber Weekend and Cyber Monday period, so shoppers will be able to extend their bargain-hunting right up until midnight on November 27.
In the past Cyber Monday deals were only accessible online and were predominantly tech-focused (hence the name).
In comparison, Black Friday deals have always been available both online and in-store and have focused on big-ticket items.
However, in recent years, we've seen a shift in the way the deals are launched throughout the discounting period.
We now often see the same offers running from Black Friday to Cyber Monday, with most retailers choosing to officially end sales at midnight on Monday.

What discount does Amazon give on Black Friday?
Based on past years, you can expect really significant discounts on Amazon products.
We're talking as much as £245 off expensive products – or more than 50 per cent.
Some items may even be discounted by as much as 70-80%, generally, but most savings will range from 20-50% off.
That makes a huge difference if you're investing in big-ticket items for your home, especially when it comes to buying a new TV or electrical appliance.
You can often get savings on the most recent models of coveted items from premium brands like Apple and Samsung too.
Will Amazon Black Friday deals be better than Prime Day?
This year Amazon announced it was hosting a second Prime Day in October, following on from the event that took place in July.
It's possible the discounts for some branded items will be bigger during Black Friday.
It's hard to say for certain if October Prime Day deals will match that of Black Friday.
