There are lots of great things about shopping on Black Friday, including the many, many fragrance deals, stocking up on bargain beauty essentials, and even treating yourself to a discounted sofa ahead of the family visiting at Christmas, if you wish. However, one of the most satisfying shopping ventures has to be securing the all-important Black Friday toy deals to guarantee a sea of smiling faces back at you this festive season. Though the Black Friday sale is over, you can still bag a deal or two on some of the best toys on the market right now.
One thing we'll be doing in my house this weekend it thinking about our Christmas letters to Santa - so that we can help him along with building all those toys, you understand!
Yes, and if you'd like to be Santa's Little Helper, you're in the right place if you want to save some serious cash on all of the top children's toy brands, including many that feature on 2023's must-have toy list. With everything from LEGO to Furbies and Fisher-Price to Barbie, you won't want to miss these epic discounts.
What will we be buying from the last minute Black Friday toy sales?
Senior Editor, Rhiannon Evans, who runs The Juggle, our parenting channel, says: 'To, erm, help Santa along, I'll be inspecting the deals over at Yoto (where they've got 20% off everything) for my son, I'll be popping to the tonies site for my daughter to get some accessories and will be having a good browse on John Lewiswhere pretty much every toy you can think has a discount.'
So, whatever is on your little one's list, maybe THIS could be the year where you get your shopping done ahead of the big day - which means no (or, at least, minimal) last-minute hunting around for the perfect present - you can relax and look forward to the big day.

It depends what you're buying. Most offers have started at around 20%, but there are lots more and you can get more than 50% off some toys, especially if they're not super new and trending toys. It's worth checking around in other retailers and having a google search to see what other shops are offering.
