  • Currys fires starting gun on Black Friday 2025 promising something no other major tech retailer has ever offered before: ‘Our Lowest Ever Price’ Black Friday event will guarantee the lowest ever price
  • The historic move is in response to two thirds of Brits calling Black Friday a “con”
  • If Currys Lowest Ever Price promise wasn’t enough, this Black Friday sees the return of Double Cash for Trash for at least a further £10 off when you recycle any old tech

New research commissioned by Currys lays bare just how little faith shoppers have in Black Friday. Two-thirds (66%) of consumers call the whole event a “con” with a further 62% sceptical about the discounts advertised during the shopping period.

When it comes to Black Friday deals themselves, electronics lead the charge for the product category people expect to have the most misleading discounts. Yet, technology (headphones – 23%, laptop/computers – 18%, TV – 17%), phone – 17% and tablets – 16%) and household appliances (25%) are among some of the most purchased items. This further cements the importance of transparency when it comes to pricing, an issue which Currys are tackling head on to restore consumers’ trust.

It’s a damning verdict on Britain’s biggest shopping moment. However, customers are clear about what would restore their trust. Nearly half (46%) say they’d have more confidence in Black Friday if retailers could guarantee prices were genuinely the lowest ever – a guarantee Currys are hanging their hat on for 2025.

CURRYS RESPONDS WITH UNPRECENDENTED PRICE TRANSPARENCY

For 2025, the thousands of products marked with ‘Our Lowest Ever Price’ badge as part of the Black Friday deals event, will never have been cheaper at Currys – ever! This is backed by the Currys Black Friday Price Guarantee*, which promises to refund the difference should the price change.

“Black Friday is one of the biggest shopping moments of the year and this year Currys is raising the bar again. Every Black Friday deal is the lowest price it’s ever been - that’s our promise.

On top of that, our Black Friday Price Guarantee ensures customers complete piece of mind - in the unlikely event our price fluctuates, we’ll refund the difference. We led the way last year with our industry-first Minimum Pricing Standard, and in 2025 we’ve gone even further. Customers value honesty as much as they value savings - and at Currys, there’s no smoke and mirrors, just unbeatable prices”

Ed Connolly Chief Commercial Officer at Currys

RESTORING CONFIDENCE IN BRITAIN’S BIGGEST SHOPPING EVENT

Currys’ 2025 pledge builds on the retailer’s long-term mission to bring transparency and trust back to Black Friday.

Last year, it became the first major retailer to introduce a Minimum Pricing Standard, guaranteeing that no Black Friday deal had been cheaper in the previous six months – a move made in direct response to a Which? report calling for greater transparency.

That commitment set a new benchmark for fairer, more honest pricing – and this year, Currys has gone even further. Its ‘Our Lowest Ever Price’ promise means customers can shop with complete confidence that they’re getting a genuine deal, not buying into a marketing gimmick.

DOUBLE CASH FOR TRASH RETURNS

Currys is also bringing back its popular Double Cash for Trash initiative. Here customers can save even more this Christmas while giving tech a longer life simply by bringing in old tech to be recycled. By doing so, they can get £10 off qualifying purchases - even off the lowest ever price Black Friday deals.

Shoppers can find Currys’, ‘Our Lowest Ever Price’ deals in-store and online at Currys.co.uk from today.
