When do the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales start and end?

The Black Friday event officially kicks off on Friday, November 29, and runs through Cyber Monday on December 2, offering a massive range of deals. However, many retailers launch early sales in the lead-up, turning it into a month-long shopping extravaganza.

While most sales wrap up soon after Cyber Monday, some brands may extend deals until stock runs out. Be quick, though—hot items often sell out well before the weekend ends!

How does this compare to Boxing Day sales?

While Black Friday and Cyber Monday take place in November, Boxing Day is held in December and focuses on post-Christmas shopping.

So, while Boxing Day’s main focus is post-Christmas clearance sales, seasonal items like holiday decorations, summer clothing, and leftover holiday inventory, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are great for gift shopping.

Black Friday has grown into one of the year’s biggest shopping events, and it shows no signs of slowing down. In 2024, Australians are expected to spend a record $6.7 billion on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, according to the Australian Retailers Association.

Whether it’s pre-Christmas gifts or post-holiday bargains, all three events offer incredible savings—so get ready to shop smart and save big!
