The Works has officially unleashed its most ambitious Black Friday sale to date, offering unprecedented deals on books that allow families to stock up for the festive season without straining their finances.
Unbeatable Book Deals for All
Running throughout November, the sale is structured in waves to maximise savings. The initial phase, active from November 3 to November 20, is centred on 'Books for Everyone'. This offers phenomenal value across both children's and adult titles.
For parents and educators, the standout offer is a bundle of 12 picture storybooks for just £10, which works out to an astonishing 83p per book. This deal is available in-store and is perfect for Christmas gifts, classroom resources, or bedtime reading. Online shoppers haven't been forgotten, with children's book bundles also available for £10.
Bestselling Reads for Adults
Adult fiction lovers are also in for a treat. Shoppers can secure four bestselling books for £7.50, meaning each title costs less than £1.90. The selection includes gripping page-turners from popular authors such as Freida McFadden and Elsie Silver. This offer is available in physical stores.
Among the specific titles highlighted is Freida McFadden's psychological thriller, Do Not Disturb, which has garnered an impressive 4.7 out of 5-star rating. Other McFadden novels in the deal include Surrogate Mother, Ward D, and Never Lie.
For those seeking a festive feel, the sale also features Christmas-themed stories like Sarah Morgan's The Christmas Cottage, Cressida McLaughlin's The Secret Christmas Bookshop, and Alexandra Benedict's The Christmas Jigsaw Murders.
What Shoppers Need to Know
The Works has confirmed that this is just the beginning. A second wave of deals, focusing on Christmas gifts and activity sets, will run from November 21 to December 1. The retailer is encouraging customers to visit stores regularly to catch new arrivals and seasonal promotions.
Customer feedback on the books has been overwhelmingly positive. One reviewer of The Secret Christmas Bookshop said, "A lovely chunky book at a good price. Can't wait to curl up and get festive." Another shopper praised the "good quality, beautiful books", noting they make a great Christmas present.
However, some online shoppers reported experiencing login issues on The Works' website, leading to a recommendation that for the smoothest experience, visiting a physical store might be preferable during this busy period.
With such deep discounts on high-demand items, shoppers are advised to act quickly to avoid disappointment, as these popular deals are expected to sell out fast.
