Is Black Friday the best time to buy a mattress?
Because online mattress sellers are so competitive, you can find a pretty hefty discount on mattresses year-round.
For instance, regularly offers between 25% and 40% off its mattresses, and occasionally offers up to 50% off on sleep bundles, too.
However, Black Friday is the time you're pretty much guaranteed to see a discount — often upwards of 50% - on whatever brand of mattress you favour, including affordable brands such as .
In terms of discount selection, Black Friday is probably the best time of year to buy a new mattress.
Is it better to buy a mattress on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
We think if you're buying online, there won't be a huge difference between the sale prices on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
From previous years, we're expecting most "bed in a box" companies to have a flat discount rate or promotion that will span the entire Black Friday weekend.
However, it's best to shop around and sign up for newsletters, in case a brand decides to further drop prices at the last minute.
When is Cyber Monday 2024 and are mattress retailers taking part?
Cyber Monday falls on December 2 this year and is always the Monday after Black Friday, concluding the 'Cyber Weekend' of sales.

Traditionally, Cyber Monday is the online-only extension of Black Friday, so you'll find there are loads more deals and offers to be discovered ahead of the Christmas gifting period.
Generally speaking, if a retailer or brand has a sale on for Black Friday, then it's very likely it'll be taking part in Cyber Monday also.
