What does ‘up to 80% off' mean?
Min discount: 20%
Max discount: 95%
Typical discount we found on ten random items: 60%
What is the discount based on: The Advertising Standards Agency has previously stated that at least 10% of items should be available at the 'up to' price.
Warning: While some deals might look like they've got a high % off, something fishy is going on with Debenhams' Recommended Retail Prices (RRPs). Debenhams seems to be listing the RRP of some products higher than they actually are, so the discount looks greater. For example, Debenhams listed the RRP of an air fryer over £250 higher than the next cheapest retailer. Watch out for this when you price compare.

Important: Don’t allow yourself to be taken in by the hype around Black Friday and be sucked into buying something you don’t need or can’t afford. Always do your own price comparisons to ensure you are getting the best deal possible – don’t just take a retailer’s word for it.

Last year, Debenhams had an 'up to 60% off' Black Friday sale, and we predict it'll happen again this year. Confusingly, different departments had different levels of discount, for example it was 'up to 70% off' women's clothing, but 'up to 40% off' fragrance.
Examples of discounts offered during Black Friday last year include:
The Lyndon Company 200 thread count pillowcase pair – £10 (was £40)
Textured stripe fleece longline snuggle hoodie – £12 (was £42)
Burton skinny fit brown retro check suit trouser – £19.50 (was £65)
'Babette' Thermoguard insulated parka jacket – £22.45 (was £75)
Debenhams is owned by the Boohoo group, alongside other brands such as Coast, Burton and Warehouse. Many brands sold on Debenhams.com are owned by the Boohoo group, so most sale prices were the same across all sites last year.
Important: Don't get caught up in the Black Friday hype, and keep our money mantras in mind – only ever buy what you need and can afford. You should always do your own price comparisons to ensure you’ve found the best deal available – don't simply take a retailer's word for it.
