Kmart and Bunnings shoppers' $20 trick to save more on Black Friday: 'Five times the Flybuys points'

Santa better start checking his list because Kmart has just dropped a preview of its 2024 Black Friday sale and there are plenty of Christmas bargains to be had. Homewares, tech, beauty buys and toys that let you go big without breaking the bank, are all part of this year’s Black Friday collection.

While most retailers offer discounts on their existing product range, Kmart’s already low prices don’t leave much margin for the eye-popping markdowns we’ve come to expect from a Black Friday sale. Instead, they’re celebrating the sales event with a special curated collection that includes a mix of limited-edition Anko items and discounts from other brands you wouldn’t normally find at Kmart.

This year, that includes a 32-inch electric guitar and amp for $99, an inflatable $69 backyard slide and pool set that will get no shortage of use over summer and a $59 rainbow light-up floor mirror that will be the envy of many a tween girl.

For those who have the space, there’s also a $249 Pilates reformer machine, which is an absolute bargain as they normally range in price from about $450 to $2,800, and this $399 inflatable spa which is perfect for a pop-up spa party.

Then there are the non-Kmart brand deals like this De’Longhi espresso machine for $99 instead of $235, and a Silicone LED face and neck mask which has been marked down to $155 from $489.

A Homedics massage gun makes a great gift for $39, down from $99.95, and Singer sewing machines are also on offer for $169 instead of the usual $299, for those who like to take fashion into their own hands. Refurbished iPhone 12s are also available for $469.

Bunnings and Kmart shoppers to save big on Black Friday

The Black Friday collection can be previewed in full from today and will be available to purchase in store and online from 8am on Thursday, November 28. OnePass members will have early access to the sale from 8pm to midnight on Wednesday, November 27, and the sale will run until December 1 or until stock sells out.

"OnePass is currently in the Black Friday sales for $20 for the year," says Aussie mum Brit Rogerson in a TikTok. "It is a really good investment especially if you're on a budget."

This is a 50% saving on the annual membership, which is usually $40.

"This OnePass gets you five times the Flybuys points when you shop and store or click and collect," she says in another video. "It gets you 365 days returns throughout the year. So you can literally buy something at the start of the year and return it before Christmas. And you can also get express click and collect and free delivery from most places, I think."

Other Black Friday deals

Aussies are expected to drop a whopping $6.7 billion over the Black Friday sales period with the cost of living crisis making this year’s sales a particularly big drawcard. Many consumers will be taking advantage of the discounts to do their Christmas shopping and to purchase big-ticket items, here we’ve listed a few other retailers with Black Friday sales worth exploring.

Home decor

DIY Blinds

One larger purchase renovators will surely take advantage of is the 20 percent Black Friday discount at DIY Blinds.
