Boots started Black Friday early last year with deals and discounts available as early as the beginning of November. It was one of the first high street stores to launch Black Friday and we can expect similar in 2022.
Boots usually discount everything from perfumes to major beauty brands during the Black Friday sale and this year will be no different. Shoppers will also be able to pick up some gadgets including electric toothbrushes as part of the Black Friday deals.
The Boots Black Friday sale is one of the most popular around but the brand is big on discounting all year round and that means there are plenty of bargains you can find now. If that is not enough we have asked a former Boots employee for some tips and tricks on getting the most form the Boots sale once it begins.

Tips and tricks to get the most from the Boots Black Friday sale
There are things you can do to get the most out of the Boots Black Friday sale. We asked MEN reporter and former Boots employee Bethan Shufflebotham for some tips on getting the best deals at Boots once the sales hit.
-
Check your local stores opening times - opening hours differ from store to store, so be sure to know what time yours opens so you can arrive in plenty of time
-
Get there early - in larger stores, queues can form outside the store ahead of the doors opening
-
Visit in advance - visit your selected store a week or so in advance to scout out where products are displayed so you know where to head on the day
-
Know what you want - have an idea of what you want in your mind so you don’t waste time browsing the aisles
-
Calculate costs in advance - if you know what you want, you’ll be able to work out 70% of the green sticker price ahead of checking out at the tills. This will avoid any surprises at the checkout because you filled your basket without considering the total
-
Sign up for an advantage card - the Boots advantage card offers four points for every £1 spent, which means that you can earn dozens of points during the sale which you can spend later in the year. Sign up for an advantage card here .
