BOOTS, Currys PC World and Argos are among the retailers that have kicked off Black Friday sales early.
We've rounded up some of the best deals available now so you can beat the rush, including cash off a Nintendo Switch console, Apple Airpods and beauty gift sets.
The sale bonanza officially launches this Friday, November 27 but already, we're seeing record sales of up to 70% off.
Most high street retailers in England will stay closed this year due to coronavirus restrictions but you can still shop discounts online.
Remember though, just because an item is in the sale doesn't mean it's the best price available.
Today, consumer group Which? warned that only one in 10 items in the Black Friday sales are actually cheaper than at other times of the year.

Here's a round up of some of our top early Black Friday deals:
Nintendo Switch console, Asda
- Was: £279.99. Now: £239.99. Save: £40 (13%) -
Asda has reduced the price of the Nintendo Switch to £239.99, saving you £40.
Originally, the console cost £279.99. Asda's price tag is the lowest currently available - although it doesn't include any games.
Asda charges between £1 and £7 for delivery.
The cheapest price elsewhere is £279.99 from (with free click and collect) or direct from (including free delivery).
GoPro HERO7, Argos
- Was: £149.99, Now: £99.99. Save: £50 (or 33%) -
Argos has already knocked £50 off the GoPro HERO7 four days ahead of the sale bonanza.
The £99.99 price tag is the lowest price we've ever seen for this particular model so you really are getting a good deal.
You'll need to factor in the £3.95 delivery costs though while stores in England are closed during lockdown, or you can click and collect for free.
Original Wayfarer Classic, Rayban
- Was: £131, Now: £104.80. Save: £26.20 (or 20%) -
Rayban has slashed up to 50% off all styles on its website and the Black Friday sale is already live.
You can save 20% on a pair of classic Wayfarers when you buy directly from the brand - plus there's free delivery.
While we found the same pair of sunnies available to buy for less from Studio (£100), you'll actually end up paying more once you've factored in the £4.99 delivery charge.
Soap & Glory scent from around the world gift set, Boots
- Was: £42, Now: £20. Save: £22 (or 52%) -
Boots has reduced the price of the Soap & Glory scents from around the world Christmas gift set by £20 in its early Black Friday sale.
The £20 price tag is the cheapest we could find - the next best offer is from Amazon but it will set you back £39.95, or an extra £19.95.
You'll need to factor in the £3.50 Boots delivery charges into your savings or you can pick one up from your local branch if you're making an essential trip there.
Apple Airpods, Currys PC World
- Was: £124.99, Now: £110. Save: £14.99 (or 12%) -
Bargain hunters can bag a pair of second generation Apple Airpods for £110 from Currys PC World - but you'll need to sign up to Topcashback first.
The cashback site is giving new customers a bonus £15 when they sign up, plus 1% cashback when they shop at Currys PC World.
This will take the £124.99 price tag down to £110 - as long as you click through the to the shop.
We couldn't find this particular model of headphone cheaper to buy anywhere else.
Shark Upright Vacuum Cleaner, Amazon
- Was: £349.99, Now: £196.90. Save: £153.09 (or 44%) -
Shoppers can save £153.09 on a Shark Upright vacuum cleaner at Amazon, plus there's free delivery.
The next best price is available to buy from Very.co.uk where it costs £197 - an extra 10p. It is also offering free delivery.
Beats Solo 3, Amazon and Currys
- Was: £179.99, Now: £125. Save: £54 (or 31%) - buy now from or
Usually priced at £179.99, early Black Friday deals have dropped the Beats Solo 3 to a new low price of £125 at both and .
Regardless of where you pick a set up from, this is already a lowest-ever price. So, it seems unlikely they’ll be any cheaper during the rest of November.
Currys PC World stores in England are currently closed due to lockdown restrictions so you'll need to order online. Standard delivery is free for small items.
Amazon is also running free delivery on the headphones for both Prime and non-Prime members.

The supermarket has halved the price of one litre bottles of Baileys ahead of Black Friday.

But you can still do this during lockdown as Morrisons (along with other supermarkets) are considered essential retailers and can stay open.
The price is the best we've seen for the Irish cream liqueur.
