Categories

It's Cyber Monday. Retailers have been pumping out offers for a few weeks, and we've been analysing this year's Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, helping you sort bargains from bull.

Don't get caught up in the hype. Before spending, ask yourself, do I need it? Can I afford it? If the answer's no to either, DON’T buy it. Remember, it's not a saving if you weren't going to buy it anyway.

Quick tips for finding the best Black Friday & Cyber Monday deals

1. Compare prices. Check sites such as Google Shopping or PriceRunner to see prices across retailers.
2. Track price history. Use tools such as CamelCamelCamel (Amazon prices) and PriceSpy (multiple retailers) to see if the Black Friday 'deal' is genuinely cheaper than its price throughout the year, as retailers often advertise discounts against the non-recent Recommended Retail Price (RRP).
3. Be wary of sales on one-off items. These encourage impulse buying. Look for across-store discounts on a wide range of products, as these are more likely to cover items already on your list.
4. Check department stores for brands. If a specific brand doesn't have the discount you want, check department stores (eg, La Redoute, Sainsbury's Tu) as they often have sales that include popular brands.
