How to shop Black Friday well

1. Make a list now

Write down who you're buying for and what they need. Lists stop impulse buys that don't get used.

2. Check prices before the sale

Note the normal price of anything on your list so you can tell a real discount from a marked-up one.

3. Sign up for brand emails

Most brands tell their subscribers first.

4. Check returns and exchanges

Especially for clothing gifts. Our returns and exchanges are free within 60 days, which covers a size swap after Christmas.

5. Think about shipping

Black Friday is a great time to get Christmas gifts sorted before the December delivery rush. Our standard shipping within Australia takes 4–7 days, and orders over $150 ship free in Australia and New Zealand (bulky items excluded).

What's worth buying on Black Friday

Things you'll use all summer. If you live near the water, swim shorts with a hidden waterproof pocket are one of those buys you'll wear every week until March. See our men's and women's styles, and keep an eye on our Black Friday sale page.
