With so many potential savings to be had, you may need a little helping hand to navigate through everything on offer, which is why we’ve created this guide to Amazon’s Black Friday sale.

Amazon typically rolls out deals early, often lasting through to Cyber Monday, which falls on 2 December this year.

If you’re not already a Prime member, it’s worth signing up for a free Amazon Prime trial to access additional perks, such as exclusive early access to lightning deals and same-day shipping.

As well as standout deals on Amazon devices like Echo speakers, Fire tablets and Fire TVs, we’re hoping for savings on major appliances from Shark, Ninja and Dyson, fitness equipment and bulk buys of everyday essentials.

When will Amazon’s Black Friday sale start in 2024?

The official date for Black Friday 2024 is November 29, but Amazon has announced it’s doing things a little differently this year.

The Amazon Black Friday sale will start at 12am on 21 November, where shoppers will be able to save up to 40% on hundreds of thousands of items.

If you don’t have much time to scroll through all these deals, come back to this guide, which will be updated with the best bargains as soon as we spot them on sale.

When will Amazon’s Black Friday sale end?

In previous years, the Amazon Black Friday sale has continued into Cyber Monday, which falls on December 2.

Amazon has announced the same will happen this year, making it clear that the deadline to add things to your basket and checkout will be 2359 on December 29.

Occasionally, Amazon devices stay low in price for a few days after Cyber Monday, and it’s important to know that nothing is guaranteed when it comes to sales shopping.

In previous years, we’ve seen some Fire tablets completely sell out in the first few days of the sale, meaning that shoppers who’d waited until Cyber Monday missed out.
