Top tips: How to get the best Black Friday deals

  • Make a shopping list in advance. It sounds silly, but you can get distracted by all of the “am-azing deals” and end up not finding what it was you really wanted in the first place.
  • Take your time and shop slowly.
  • Cross check prices across multiple websites. Do your homework, check those prices at more than one location.
  • Keep checking back with Yachting World as we regularly update our guides to the best deals.
  • Download a price comparison app on your phone, such as Price Runner or Price Spy, these take some of the guess work out of the bargain hunt.
  • Remember: There’s always another day to find a good deal. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, then with a little patience, you will probably find the deal later on.
