Black Friday is the major late-November shopping event now widely used by UK retailers. The date follows the US calendar: it is the Friday after Thanksgiving, which is the fourth Thursday in November. Many UK deals now begin earlier in November and continue through Cyber Monday, so the named date is best treated as the peak weekend rather than the only sale day. Check prices carefully, as not every discount is a genuine saving.
