The concept originated way back in the 1930's over in the US when then-president Franklin D Roosevelt shifted the date of Thanksgiving to elongate the festive shopping season.

It is traditionally marked on the day after Thanksgiving, with retailers bringing prices down to attract customers ahead of Christmas.

But with the massive growth of American brands on UK high streets, as well as the emergence of online shopping powerhouses like Amazon, the event has been imported this side of the pond.

Now largely replacing Boxing Day as the biggest day on the retail calendar, with around £1 billion forked out on cut-price products each year.

And, while it's usually a day for deals on tech, clothing and even food, there's plenty on offer for petrolheads too.

For example, online retailer My Car Cleaning is offering hefty discounts on a range of products to leave your motor sparkling.

Shoppers can pick up wax applicators, protective rinse aid and even a "bug remover" spray all at a fraction of the price.

Their Valet-Pro Citrus-scented pre-wash mixture has seen its price halved from £8 to £4.
