Top tip for what you can expect on Black Friday 

One this is for sure, and that is the bargains sell out fast! So put your alarm clock on, grab a good breakfast and get ready to shop as soon as the doors open. You won’t be the only one, so make sure you have some comfy shoes on so you can shop comfortably and enjoy a day of shopping for your garden. Don’t forget to write a list of everything you would love to buy but also expect to pick up some spur of the moment purchases. 

What you can expect on Black Friday is plant bargains

Plants don’t escape the sales! You could pick up one of your dream plants in the black Friday sale or find something completely new and exciting. You might find some Orchids that have finished flowering for a bargain, so remember you can absolutely get them to bloom again. Don’t forget a lovely pot for it, too. 

End of line garden furniture is what you can expect on Black Friday 

You could pick up a great bargain in the garden furniture department. There is often summer furniture, end-of-line with a lot of money off for Black Friday. So keep your eye out for your next garden seating, tables and accessories. Make sure you have measured up so you know what size you can fit in. On Black Friday, delaying a purchase means you might miss out on it all together. 

What you can expect on Black Friday is to have a great day out

One of the most important things to remember is to have fun!

  • Enjoy your day out,
  • Go with friends,
  • Grab some lunch,
  • And see what you can find.

If you need a pick me up, take some time for a coffee and a chat before you head back to the shops to hunt those bargains - especially the plants!
