M&S isn’t just the place to pick up your groceries, it’s also a go-to destination for contemporary homeware, beauty, fashion collaborations with the likes of Bella Freud and 16Arlington. But is the retailer participating in Black Friday 2025?

In short, no – but it’s not all bad news. Rather than joining the usual Black Friday rush, M&S is hosting its own winter sale this November, offering discounts across every department that easily rival the typical event. This year, you can grab up to 50 per cent off beauty, fashion and more. Whether you’re hunting for Christmas gifts, refreshing your cold-weather wardrobe or stocking up on party-season make-up must-haves, it’s definitely worth browsing.

Top deals deals include up to 25 per cent off big name 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.

Perfect as the cold weather draws, this burgundy cashmere cardigan from Nobody’s Child creates a "flattering silhouette when half-buttoned", I wrote in my review of the best cashmere jumpers. I found it “a stellar layering piece, too, whether it’s a white T-shirt poking out the top or thrown over the shoulders of a striped shirt.” It’s now 25 per cent off at M&S, bringing the price down to less than £100.

Earning a spot in my review of the best trench coats, I loved the flattering, tailored fit of this M&S style. Reduced by 20 per cent (discount added at checkout), the quality is excellent with a crisp cotton fabrication and full inner lining. The belt can be fastened for extra structure and warmth, while the black finish is a smart take.
