Black Friday is often associated with big-ticket electronics, but this year's sales offer plenty of bargains under £50. From premium umbrellas to coffee machines and noise-cancelling headphones, these deals are perfect for savvy shoppers looking to stretch their budgets during the cost-of-living crisis.
The Oswin Hyde Joseph Handcrafted Umbrella, named the best-looking umbrella in expert Pete Wise's roundup, is now £49 (down from £75). Its robust quality and broad coverage make it a stylish and practical choice. For coffee lovers, the Philips L'Or Barista Sublime Coffee Machine is available for £45 (was £69.40), the lowest price ever.
