The sales extravaganza of the year – aka Black Friday 2023 – is finally here. The shopping event serves as the best time to save on fashion and jewellery, laptops, TVs, home appliances and beauty. If it’s the latter category you’re most interested in, listen up because the Boots Black Friday sale is well underway.
For those of us in the market for perfume, skincare, make-up and electricals, the Boots event is not to be missed. But as always, our team of shopping experts are also keeping an eye on the best savings at big-name retailers and brands, including Amazon, Argos, Currys, Dyson and John Lewis.
As far as the Boots Black Friday sale is concerned, the beauty retailer is claiming (yet again!) that it’s the biggest sale ever. Highlights that we’ve spotted so far include £50 off Dyson’s supersonic hair dryer and there’s £30 off Marc Jacobs Daisy eau de toilette. Keep scrolling for all this and more.
