When do Black Friday NZ sales start and end?
Black Friday occurs on Friday 29 November 2024, but sales typically start sooner and end later, turning the shopping event into a multi-day bonanza. Some sales have begun as early as two weeks before the ‘official’ Black Friday date.
There’s also Cyber Monday on 2 December 2024, where you can expect Black Friday sales to continue with some bonus deals thrown in for good measure.
How can I shop Black Friday deals from websites that don’t ship to New Zealand?
To shop an extensive range of products from online stores that don’t ship to New Zealand (like Target, Walmart, Ulta Beauty and Space NK), we recommend signing up for a freight forwarding service like Reship.
