ALDI doesn’t officially take part in Black Friday usually, but that doesn’t mean shoppers will miss out on the sale bonanza.
In previous years, the discounter carried on with its weekly Specialbuys promotion, so customers could still bag a bargain.
Just because items are in a Black Friday sale, doesn’t mean you can’t find them, or something similar, cheaper elsewhere. Always shop around before spending your money.
The discounter hasn’t yet confirmed whether it’s doing the same around Black Friday this year, so keep an eye on this page as we near the date.
Black Friday is on Friday 29 November, but many Black Friday discounts are available before and after this date with many shops stretching the deals and discounts over several days and even weeks sometimes.
Black Friday is always towards the end of November and is the day after the American Thanksgiving holiday, which is always on the fourth Thursday of November.
Specialbuy deals always drop on Thursdays and Sundays and last November was no exception – they were released on Thursday November 28 and Sunday December 1.
This was instead of a specific Black Friday promotion on November 29.
Previous years have included offers on electrical items including a wireless speaker, boombox and Polaroid camera, just to mention a few.
Aldi’s Specialbuys are released in small amounts at a low price, so you have to be quick if you want to get your hands on them.
Aldi’s Black Friday Specialbuys are expected to drop on Thursday 28 November and Sunday 1 December this year.
Aldi has so far not told us anything about this year’s Specialbuys around the Black Friday period.
But below we’ve included some deals from previous years to give you an idea of what kind of offers you may be able to find in 2020.
IT might be tempting to dive in and snap up LOADS of items on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but here’s how you can guarantee you’re getting a good deal.
PREPARE Research the items you want to buy and find out the cheapest price. Websites like PriceSpy, PriceHistory and CamelCamelCamel will give you historical data on prices so you can see how much you should pay.
GET FOLLOWING Follow your favourite shops on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram and sign up to its deals newsletter to get the latest on any offers. We post the best deals in our Sun Money FB group too.
EARN CASHBACK Check websites like Quidco and TopCashback BEFORE you place your order. Cashback websites PAY you to shop. All you have to do is click through their links and the money is added to your online account, usually within 14 days.
Aldi Specialbuys can be bought online.
Delivery costs range from free on orders over £30 to £3.95 for next day delvery and £6.95 for larger items.
The cost can depend on the item, how much you spend, how quickly you want it and where you live.

Specialbuys are Aldi’s main discount offer and you can get a sneak peek of what’s coming up in future weeks online.
You’ll also find an occasional sale section on its website with further reductions.
