November is here, and with it comes the countdown to Black Friday 2026 shopping. For anyone planning to replace their phone, buy a new laptop, or pick up a home appliance, all eyes are on the major retail chains — and more specifically, on when the first real price cuts will appear. This year’s Black Friday falls on Friday, November 27, but shoppers won’t need to wait until then to start finding deals. Plaisio, Public, and Kotsovolos have already activated their dedicated landing pages, laying the groundwork for this year’s campaigns. That said, no unified start date for the discounts has been officially announced.

Black Friday 2026: Deals could start as early as November 13
According to information from powergame.gr, some electronics and home appliance retailers are expected to launch their offers early — as soon as Friday, November 13. That’s a full two weeks before Black Friday itself, giving shoppers more time to compare products and prices.
This information applies to part of the market, as each retailer sets its own promotional schedule.
Plaisio: Sign up for early access
At Plaisio, the Black Friday 2026 page greets visitors with a message that deals are on the way, inviting them to register their details to be notified first. The chain is also highlighting its delivery services, flexible payment options, and after-sales support. For anyone who has already chosen a product, signing up for early alerts is a smart way to follow the campaign from the moment it launches.
Public: Countdown to November 27
Public has activated its countdown to Black Friday on Friday, November 27, 2026, teasing upcoming discounts across smartphones, laptops, televisions, large home appliances, and small kitchen gadgets.
Through its notification form, interested shoppers can enter their name, email address, and the product categories they’re most interested in.
There is also a separate section featuring deals that are already live ahead of the official Black Friday launch. Shoppers should note that these current reduced prices are not necessarily the start of the Black Friday campaign itself.
Kotsovolos: Gearing up for tech and appliance deals
Kotsovolos has also activated its dedicated Black Friday 2026 page, with the event falling on November 27 this year. The retailer is teasing discounts on technology products and home appliances, though it has not yet specified whether offers will begin before the official date.
The chain is encouraging shoppers to start building their wish lists now, while also pointing to deals already available — ranging from computers and smartphones to dehumidifiers, coffee machines, and washing machines. No specific early start date for the Black Friday sale has been announced yet.
Praktiker and Intersport have already started
Meanwhile, Praktiker has already kicked off its Black Friday deals, and Intersport is also running discount offers — giving shoppers the opportunity to get their purchases done early.
At Praktiker, Black Friday-tagged products are already featured on the chain’s homepage. For example, the Rohnson Mamba M24 stick vacuum is available for €139, down from €199, while the Wellio 6kg washing machine is priced at €199, reduced from €229.
Shoppers are advised to track prices on products they’re interested in from now on, to verify whether the discounts are genuine. It’s also worth paying close attention to the final purchase cost, as delivery fees and installation charges can significantly reduce the real savings of any deal.
