Amazon UK to offer 12 days of Black Friday deals
Amazon UK has said it is gearing up for its biggest Black Friday deals event ever with the launch of 12 days of special offers Christmas shopping.
The Black Friday Sale will have deals available from day one of the sale with new deals becoming available as often as every five minutes. More than a thousand Amazon Marketplace sellers will also participate in The Black Friday Sale, offering double the number of deals compared to last year.
The Black Friday Sale on Amazon.co.uk will run from Monday 14 November until Friday 25 November.
