Black Friday 2016 is almost here and we have a guide to where we think are the best places to shop online this year.

Amazon of course is the big player in online retail and have already started their Black Friday event, but not offering that ‘Wow!’ deal, nothing stands out, it feels like just another day for the giant.
If your after a mobile phone there are many places offering cut priced handsets and deals, Carphone Warehouse already have their Black Friday (Black Tag) event on, you can buy Blackberry Priv down from £400 to £300 sim free, or if you want a pay monthly handset you can pick up a Samsung S7 for £24 a month with no up front costs for more on the Carphone Warehouse sale click HERE
EE have some amazing deals on at the moment more so has some pay and go handsets come with a free pair of Beats EP headphones, the best deal we found was the P9 light with the headphones and £10 top up will set you back a penny under £200, for more deals on EE click HERE
O2 have something of a sale going on and another price drop event on Facebook, Three have a Black Friday event on although on the website it suggest most of the sales will be on the pay monthly side.
Giff Gaff have a Black Friday sale on but only a selected amount of phones available, even Apple will be having a sale which is a shocker in itself, Blackberry also have a sale on the website.
Vodafone offered the wow factor last year with some handsets going for £149 that were £400 and so good the website crashed many times, Vodafone told us then that the demand for the cut priced phones was off the scale, they had never seen anything like it.
BT Mobile offer the cheapest iPhone 6s that we could see at £25 and a free £150 amazon gift card however you have to pay £100 up front to get it at £25 it drops when you pay £30 a month which to be honest is a much better deal with 3GB data instead of just 500mb on the £25 tariff.
Virgin Mobile have some offers on as do Tesco Mobile, but no wow! offers, if you look elsewhere like Argos they have some good deals also, although read proper what that iPhone 5s says not just the £179.99 price tag, it is a refurbished handset which can be hit and miss, make sure there is a warranty on the handset.
If mobiles is not your thing and you’re looking for a big HD television, well there are many deals out there currently that have that wow factor and Currys is the best of the lot so far, however lets see what happens at Tesco this year!
Do you want a good rain jacket? head for Go-Outdoors this year, they have some amazing deals although good nothing with that ‘Wow!’ factor, it would be wow if they sold all their Gore-Tex jackets for under £100 all sizes! however over at M and M direct they do have some Gore-Tex jackets under £100 but they offer a very poor delivery service so you will be waiting for about 5 days, even if you choose the faster more expensive option you’re looking at 3 days and then the courier they use is irresponsible, one of our reporters paid for a couple of t-shirts and was delivered late and drenched in some WD40 type lubricant.
Whatever you want, where ever you spend it, have a great time shopping, with the last word of caution, beware the pickpockets who are in operation, and the online scams, make sure the address is correct and don’t click any links in an email.
