John Lewis' Black Friday Sale is Here—29 Smart Buys My 57-Year-Old Mum and I Are Considering

If you know me, or in fact, have seen my other story on the site, you’ll know that my mum and I are very close. A tight-knit family of just two, we’re probably as close as a mum and daughter can get, and whilst there have been a couple of arguments over the years (namely when I was 16 and wanted to go on holiday with my friends for the first time), we actually rarely disagree on, well, anything.

From fashion to music and interiors to movies, my mum and I share a lot of the same opinions, despite an age gap of over 30 years. And that even comes down to our favourite destinations to head to for a spot of shopping. One of our top choices is, perhaps surprisingly, John Lewis. A one-stop hit for anything you could possibly need, from a luxury coffee machine to chic shoes and pyjamas to beauty buys, it’s a great day-out for my mum and I. Needless to say, we love the website just as much as the stores, and just this very morning we shared with each other a few pieces we’d spotted online that we thought the other would love.

Luckily for us, John Lewis’s Black Friday 2024 sale has started, which means our wish list items now have up to 30% off. When it comes to sale shopping, it can be easy to be swept up in the deals and excitement of saving a few pounds, so I thought I’d share our list below to help you make the smartest possible decisions this Black Friday.

Read on to discover the pieces my mum and I love in John Lewis’s 2024 Black Friday sale, from beauty and fashion to homewear and tech.
