When to shop

What time of year does garden furniture go on sale?

The best time to look out for garden furniture deals is as the summer season is drawing to a close; between between August and October in the UK. This is when retailers launch end-of-season sales to clear summer stock and free up space in-store and online for Christmas stock. 

Of course, that tends to mean that the weather for enjoying your new purchase is coming to an end, but if you don't mind storing your bargains away for the year ahead, then shopping for garden furniture deals at the end of the season is a great way to save cash – and get ahead of the curve before peak garden furniture prices hit in March, April, and May.

That said, retailers can launch garden furniture deals earlier in the season too, especially if spring weather has been wet and cool and they're getting nervous about sitting on excess summer stock.

If you have your eye on a particular piece then the best way to stay in the loop regarding sales is to sign up to the brand's email newsletter, this way you're likely to be the first to hear about garden furniture sales when prices drop. Plus, Ideal Home's garden discount codes are another great way to save.

Amazon Prime Day garden furniture deals

Amazon Prime Day – the brand's yearly price-slashing event – can mean some great Prime Day garden furniture deals. 

This year, Prime Day garden furniture deals ran from the 11th to the 12th of July, just as the weather was warming up time spent lounging or dining outdoors suddenly seems like a very good idea.

Usually, Prime Day garden furniture deals are a once-a-year event, however, this year a second price-slashing event has been announced in October. Exact dates are still to be confirmed, but keep an eye on our Amazon Prime Day deals to be the first to hear when they're unveiled.

In the meantime, you could sign up for Amazon Prime membership now so you're all set to shop when the next Prime Day garden furniture deals take place.

Black Friday garden furniture deals

The term 'Black Friday' originated in the US to denote the first day following Thanksgiving when retailers would cut prices to draw holidaymakers to shop their store's sales. Driven by global brands, the price-slashing event soon crossed the pond, and now Black Friday – closely followed by Cyber Monday – has become one of the UK's biggest consumer extravaganzas, rivaling traditional Boxing Day sales. 

Often hailed as the biggest shopping day of the year, Black Friday always falls on the last Friday of November, so the next time it will roll around is Friday 24th November 2023.

That said, in recent years, the event has spread to encompass more than just one day, with retailers starting Black Friday discounting earlier and earlier so that a full Black Friday 'week' of discounts isn't uncommon. Last year, we even saw retailers running Black Friday promotions throughout the whole month of November.

Whether or not you agree with the rampant consumerism Black Friday has now come to represent, there's no denying it can be a great time for Black Friday garden furniture deals and Cyber Monday garden furniture deals. 

Last year, Black Friday garden furniture deals were fairly thin on the ground as summer heatwaves meant garden furniture sold out early in the season, but previous years have seen some hefty Black Friday discounting on garden furniture with retailers capitalising on the opportunity to clear summer outdoor stock to make way for winter product lines. 

We'll be keeping our eye out for all this year's top Black Friday garden furniture deals and Cyber Monday garden furniture deals right here, but make sure to bookmark the Ideal Home Black Friday home deals page to get alerts for all the biggest Black Friday homeware sales as they launch.
