It’s always a tricky time of the year to recommend new tech purchases so close to Black Friday, but I’m shocked at how good some of these offers are. This is especially true for Shark and Ninja appliances, which can be picked up with an extra 20% off for a limited time when using the code ‘WQMF2’ at checkout.

There are some record-low prices available for the manufacturer’s highly rated and best-selling air fryers, vacuums, and coffee machines. There’s even the Ninja Perfect Temperature Kettle for under £50, which is a much more palatable price for the unique and sleek smart kettle.

Elsewhere, there’s one of the first discounts on the Nintendo Switch 2, a good selection of cheap TVs from £119, and new laptops from as little as £169 if you need to upgrade from Windows 10.

Check out all of the top categories from the Very sale below, as well as the rest of my top picks from the surprise sale ahead of Black Friday. These offers are available until November 2, although the retailer has said more could be added over the next few days as well, so I’ll be back to update my recommendations with any more standout deals.
