The PlayStation Plus Black Friday sale is now live, and it’s the perfect time to grab some amazing deals on AAA games, Whether you’re a fan of action-packed adventures or relaxing indie games, there’s something for everyone, including deals on FC 25, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Hogwarts Legacy and more.

If that’s still too expensive for you, Sarah’s busy rounding up the best mattress deals in her article below. It includes discounts on everything from Eve Sleep, Nectar, Panda, and even the mattress used in Premier Inn hotels. Have a gander if you want a more restful night’s sleep at a discounted price.

I won’t lie, all this deal hunting has given me a bit of a kink in my back – though it might also be because my mattress isn’t exactly up to scratch. Luckily, there’s no need to suffer! Black Friday has dropped a ton of mattress deals, so if your bed’s been keeping you up at night, now’s the perfect time to treat yourself to a comfier, pain-free snooze.

Simba hybrid luxe mattress, double: Was £1,699, now £1,295.28, Simbasleep.com

Assistant IndyBest editor Sarah tested this mattress for over six months and crowned it the best in her review. She found it “offers the ideal balance between a firm and medium sleeping base,” while she’s noticed “improved sleep, thanks to the coolness it offers during warmer months and increased cosiness in the autumn and winter.” Plus, all mattress sizes are currently reduced.

I’m being told by the beauty editors at The Independent that this is a deal not to be missed this Black Friday. Amazon has slashed the price of Maybelline’s lash sensational sky high mascara by 50 per cent.

Maybelline lash sensational sky high mascara: Was £12.99, now £6.49, Amazon.co.uk

Its uniquely designed brush is long, thin, and densely packed with tiny plastic bristles, making it ideal for reaching those hard-to-get areas. It’s easy to manoeuvre from all angles with minimal mess. In assistant IndyBest editor Sarah’s in-depth review of the mascara, she also raved about the tiny bristles that line the wand, which “help comb through each and every lash – yes, even those pesky ones right in the corner.”

The PS5 Slim has fallen to its lowest-ever price this Black Friday, and Fortnite fans will want to get it with the Cobalt Star bundle. As well as the console, you get a bunch of free in-game bonuses and V-Bucks. Win.

You get the sleek PS5 Slim console along with a whole load of exclusive Fortnite gear. The Cobalt Star pack includes the Cobalt Snowfoot Outfit (LEGO Style), Sapphire Star Back Bling, Indigo Inverter Pickaxe, Weathered Snow Stripes Wrap, Cobalt Crash Drums, Krackle Boost (Gold Painted Style), Discotheque Wheels (Gold Painted Style), Stella Trail (Gold Painted Style), and 1,000 V-Bucks to get you started.

Black Friday used to end on the day after Thanksgiving in the US, which is the Friday itself (29 November 29 2024). However, many (if not all) retailers extend their deals through the weekend and even into Cyber Monday (2 December 2024). That means you’ve got two more days to shop the savings before they all come flying back up to their usual price.

The Nintendo Switch is one of the most popular consoles ever made – genuinely, it’s the third most-sold console ever (pipped out by the Nintendo DS and the PlayStation 2). If you’re one of the five people who still haven’t got one yet, then have I found the deal for you.

Nintendo Switch OLED with ‘Super Mario Bros. Wonder’ and a 12-month Switch Online membership: Was £309.99, now £289.95, Amazon.co.uk

Nintendo has just launched an unbeatable Nintendo Switch OLED bundle that includes Super Mario Bros. Wonder and a 12-month Nintendo Switch Online membership. Plus, if you grab it from Amazon, you’ll get an extra £20 off the asking price. If I do the maths, you’re saving around £80 if you were to buy the game, membership and console separately. Bargain!

The Meta Quest 3 is one of the best deals this Black Friday. Whether you’re diving into virtual reality for the first time or upgrading your setup, now’s the perfect time to invest. I reviewed it last year, and it’s my top pick for most people. Now with a hefty £150 saving, tech writer Steve’s got all the details on how you can secure the deal in his article below:

The Asos.com is in full swing, and if you thought the brand’s clothes couldn’t get any cheaper—think again.

John Lewis has a monstrous amount of deals this Black Friday, and one I particularly like is this almost £200 saving on the Dyson gen5 detect – its smartest vacuum yet.

Named the best overall in our review of Dyson vacuums, it impressed with its battery life, HEPA filter and powerful suction. IndyBest writer Siobhan noted that “cleaning power is downright astonishing” and praised its ability to avoid hair tangling – a rare feat in her home.
