Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving; this year, it falls on Friday, November 29, 2024. You can expect discounts in reputed brands' online and offline stores because this sale is the biggest sale day of the year. It also marks the beginning of Christmas shopping.
While its inception can be traced back to the fifties, Black Friday has since evolved into a four-day stint and, sometimes, even a whole month. It officially ends on what is known internationally as Cyber Monday, a day when all things electronic battle massive price cuts.
During Black Friday sales, some of the world's biggest brands participate, including Apple, Zara, Dyson, Samsung, and more. Hence, we've curated this list of brands for you to check out ahead of D-day.
