Black Friday Deals 2022
On this page, you'll see a roundup of some of the best deals you can find, as well as what your favourite retailers are offering. You can find some analysis too as to how good each deal is.
Of course, make sure you don't get sucked into the hype of the day, and stick to a list if you wanted to buy something.
3 Top Tips
- Prices may change throughout the day, so do your own checks and price comparisons to make sure it's the cheapest price.
- There are a number of retailers that have announced that their prices will not drop before Black Friday, and some including Curry’s and Halfords are offering to pay the difference back to you if an item drops in price after you’ve bought it - so do have a look out for those price guarantees.
- There are also some extensions to returns policies for items bought during Black Friday week - for example anything bought at John Lewis or Curry's can be returned for a full refund until January - which is much longer leeway than the usual 14 days for online purchases.
Popular Products
Whether it's a Nintendo Switch, an iPad or an Amazon Echo, here are some of the most searched for products and the cheapest place to find them:
Amazon Products (Eg, Echo Dot, Fire TV etc)

Your Requests - Deals On Items You've Asked For
We asked you on Instagram what you were looking for this Black Friday - and we've been flooded with requests. Some items didn't have many genuine deals on, but there were a few items that were the cheapest it's ever been.
Here are a few of the best deals on items you requested:
Playstation 5 Digital Console + Just Dance 2023 Bundle - £414.98
Was £499+ for Playstation 5 Bundles, now £414.98 at Very.
Cheapest I've seen a PS5 bundle. Must pre order for December delivery (but before Christmas)
Sharp 50" 4K Smart TV - £239
Was £339. This is available in store only at Tesco. You must scan your Tesco Clubcard to get the deal.
This is the cheapest I've seen this, or any 50" TV today.
Tefal Actifry Advance Airfryer - £99.99
Was £149.99. Only available at Aldi Online - not available in store.
This is the cheapest price it's been. Airfryers are scarce this Black Friday due to popularity.
Ring Video Doorbell 2nd Gen (+ Echo Show 5 Bundle Deal) - £66.99
Was £84.98. Only available at Argos - this is one of the only places doing bundles this Black Friday.
Good price for the two together. Doorbell currently priced at £59.99 everywhere.
Laptop - Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 Chromebook - £129
Was £179.99. Only available at Lidl in store. Stocks might be limited, so go quick.
Cheapest it's ever been - and one of the only laptop deals around this Black Friday.
Phillips 3 In 1 Air Purifier, Fan and Space Heater - £199.99
Was £399.99. Available at Amazon.
Cheapest it's ever been - and a good alternative to the Dyson Hot & Cold.
Oculus Rift VR Headset & 2 Games - £349.99
Was £399.99. Includes the games Resident Evil 4 & Beat Saber.
Was cheaper last year, but a decent price for more recent pricing.

Has been cheaper in the past, but a decent price.
Pokemon Violet/Scarlet On Nintendo Switch for £9.99 (norm £49.99 each)
You can get a copy of Pokemon Violet or Scarlet for £9.99 at Game in store.
To get it, you'll need to trade in an old version of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or Splatoon 3 to get the discount down to £9.99 (saving £40).
If you didn't have those games, you could always pick an old copy up from Facebook Marketplace for a cheap price, and still make a saving on an expensive game.
HP DeskJet 4130e (with 9 Months of Instant Ink) - £49
Was £74.99. Cheapest deal I've seen for a good spec printer.
You also get 9 months worth of instant ink, which is a nice bonus.
