M&S isn’t just the place to do your weekly food shop, it’s also a go-to for design-led homeware, beauty, fashion collaborations with names like Bella Freud and 16Arlington. But is it participating in Black Friday 2025?
The answer is no – but it’s not all bad news. Instead, M&S is hosting its own winter sale this November, offering discounts across every category that easily rival a traditional Black Friday event. This year, you can grab up to 50 per cent off beauty, fashion and more. Whether you’re ticking off Christmas gifts, giving your wardrobe a seasonal refresh, or stocking up on party-season make-up must-haves, it’s well worth a look.
Highlights include up to 50 per cent off cult beauty brands like Color Wow and Elizabeth Arden, up to 20 per cent off winter coats and knitwear, and a massive 40 per cent off homeware items from lamps to bedding. With so many bargains on offer, I’ve rounded up my favourite picks from M&S’s Black Friday alternative sale to make shopping a little easier.

At £90, it was already relatively affordable for cashmere, but now it’s even cheaper in the M&S sale. Made with 100 per cent cashmere, it’s perfectly lightweight and soft while being insulating and warm. Distinguished by its crew neckline, the jumper boasts a comfortable, relaxed cut and a soft, brushed finish.
