BRADFORD shoppers will be able to snap up a bargain as Black Friday deals are unveiled in shops across the city.

Discounted deals are expected at The Broadway, Forster Square Retail Park, the Kirkgate Centre and supermarkets, as well as at other retailers.

Security guards will be on hand again at electrical store Sonic Direct in Ingleby Road, which last year saw around 100 people queueing ahead of doors opening at 8am.

This year they are opening early again and are expecting even more customers as the number of deals will be higher. Friday’s offers will also trigger a week of discounts to be had.

General manager Rob Mucha told the Telegraph & Argus: “We have virtually doubled what we did last year in terms of the number of offers. It was so successful last year and we are expecting even more this year.

“We have around 50 top bargains and have been promoting around 300 heavily discounted deals too.”

A number of stores at The Broadway shopping centre are also offering special Black Friday deals after the success of last year which saw 100,000 people through the centre’s doors.

Bargains can be had at stores such as Debenhams, which is offering up to 50 per cent off selected lines, as well as offers at Deichmann, The Body Shop and Schuh.

General manager Ian Ward said: “Black Friday has quickly become one of the busiest shopping days of the year since arriving in the UK, and I’m really pleased that The Broadway is able to offer shoppers some of the best deals on their favourite brands this weekend.”

At Forster Square Retail Park major retailers such as Argos, Boots, and Currys PC World are expected to be offering Black Friday bargains.

Supermarkets across the district confirmed as offering Black Friday deals include Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Morrisons.

The Morrisons store at Victoria Shopping Centre has appointed an in-store “strongperson” to help customers carry their shopping during Black Friday week, which the supermarket is predicting will be the heaviest shopping week of the year.

The discount day known as Black Friday is held on the last Friday in November, but a number of retailers have been offering deals throughout the week.

Many of these retailers are also expected to announce new deals on Friday morning.
