What to shop in COS' Black Friday sale today and over the weekend:
Shop smart this Black Friday and think hard (and well in advance) about what you actually need. Stay focused: don't get distracted by shiny new-in pieces until your essentials are safely stowed in the basket, because those are always the first ones to go.
COS does basics better than most high-street stores, so this is the time to stock up on those signature tees, vests, shirts and jeans that you've been eyeing, for less. That said, the brand's partywear offering is also an excellent investment, erring more on the side of timeless than the too trend-led, meaning these pieces are sure to see you through countless seasons in style.
And, of course, COS really comes into its own for autumn/winter, with its epic outerwear offering, classic knits, cosy cashmere, tailored wool separates and a great selection of luxurious leather accessories to boot.
The good news is that all of these staples – and a lot more there besides – are discounted by 25% in the brand's Black Friday sale this week.

Does COS take part in Black Friday?
Although the retailer usually does things a little differently, the past few years have proven that COS is secretly a fan of the Black Friday fun.
Ever since 2016, COS has treated shoppers to blanket discounts of up to 30% off during the Black Friday weekend, while last year, the brand surprised fans with 60% off on Cyber Monday, too.
When is the COS Black Friday sale?
Black Friday usually falls on the fourth weekend of November, however this year the event will take place on the last weekend of the month, on November 29. However, many brands start their sales a little early, including COS: the sale is live now.
When is Cyber Monday and does COS take part?
Cyber Monday falls on December 2 this year. In 2023, COS dropped specific Cyber Monday deals for the first time ever, with up to 60% off selected lines.
What even is Black Friday?
If you've been hiding under a rock/are new to the biggest shopping event of the year that is Black Friday, let us get you up to speed.
Black Friday was originally an American holiday, thought to be kick-started by the department store Macy’s in the 1930s. The annual event didn't get its name until later on, though, when it grew in popularity during the Eighties.
It wasn't until decades later, in 2010, that the UK started cashing in on the shopping event, too. Amazon was the first to begin offering British customers online discounts and deals on the same day as the sales in the US. Fast-forward to 2024, and Black Friday is an even bigger event than the Boxing Day sales, with most high-street stores and major luxury e-tailers taking part.
What's the deal with COS Black Friday delivery?
Most of us shop online these days, so delivery costs need to be factored into your Black Friday haul. At COS, standard shipping to the UK costs £4 and takes 3-5 working days, but it's free for orders over £100. Bear in mind that during super-busy times like Black Friday, shipping can take a little longer than usual. If you want your order faster, premium delivery will set you back £10 and arrive within 2-3 days. Only for the seriously impatient, then.
