Gifting made easy in the Black Friday sale

Wondering what to buy in the John Lewis’ Black Friday sale? Why not use it to help tick off the Christmas gift list? 

Maybe you’re an organised early-bird, keen to ‘complete’ Christmas gifting, like, now? Perhaps you fancy yourself as your family’s ultimate gifter, conjuring up memories so magical that they’ll go down in festive folklore?

Whatever your shopping style, now is the time to win at Christmas 2024. With hundreds of BIG deals across tech, up to 20 per cent off Beauty (and more top offers across Fashion, Kids and Home) shop the John Lewis Black Friday sale right and get ahead on gifting, confident that you've got the very best price.

Want to shop Black Friday fashion like a pro? Do look out for quality fabrics, be it a clever coat or cashmere knit – classic wardrobe staples will stand the test of time. Don’t chase trends. Don’t rule out off-season staples. And if you buy one thing in the sales, think accessories. You’ll never lose money on a bag (plus the size is fixed for life), while socks and smalls make great stocking fillers. With savings across Barbour, Ralph Lauren, Coach and more big name brands, you can rest assured that fashion has plenty to offer when it comes to great gifting. 

Why not give them what they (really, really) want with a beauty buy, or five? The sales are packed with gift sets galore, including luxury scent coffrets and body care buys that will suit all tastes and types. Snap up an advent calendar or two, just for you, and select some professional brushes for some seriously good stocking fillers. Now’s the time to restock your own beauty cabinet, too: from skincare sets and designer perfumes to that luxury foundation you’ve had your eye on, with up to 20% off Beauty and up to 25% off selected Fragrance this Black Friday, you’ve got every excuse to dabble in some serious (self-) gifting.

Struggling to find the perfect gift for the LO’s in your life? Look no further. First, there are the one-of-a-kind toys, the hand-me-down heirlooms made to last a lifetime – from Scandi-style wooden kitchens to sentimental sleepsuits and LeMieux ponies. Then there are the surefire kiddy crowd pleasers, bound to delight (and, for your wallet's sake, preferably bought in the Black Friday sale). From LEGO to everyone’s favourite scooter, these buys will please parents and kids alike. PS Buy a new parent a BabyBjörn and they’ll love you for life.

My number one gift idea for people who are tricky to buy for? Home fragrance. Not exactly ground-breaking, I know, but any home or host will adore a luxury candle or decadent diffuser that offers a hotel-like feeling long after the guests have gone. Hosting Christmas at yours? Prep now with luxury linens, conversational Le Creuset, timeless tabletop treats and feel-good lamps (see also: ambient low-level lighting). Also, do snap up that Ooni you’ve had your eye on for an age. Black Friday is nothing if not an excuse to spruce up our living space.

Any expert will tell you, John Lewis’ Black Friday sale is The One for tech-types, which also mean no more awkward unwrapping moments!

From Airwrap™ to Oura rings, Apple AirPods to iPads, now’s the time to treat loved ones to something they’ll truly love. And by loved ones, I mean you. Hey, you know it’s the perfect time to update your tech too.
