Click FrenzyPredicted

87DAYS AWAY 10 Nov 2026 – 12 Nov 2026
Mid-November, the week before Black Friday

Australia’s home-grown online sale, usually a 53-hour run in mid-November. Increasingly a warm-up act for Black Friday — good for gauging what Black Friday prices will look like.

Being straight with you: Our date is a pattern-based prediction (it has usually started the second Tuesday of November). Treat it as a preview: if a Click Frenzy price is only okay, the same item usually matches or beats it two weeks later at Black Friday.

BEFORE THE EVENT

Know the fair price first

The single best preparation for any sale event is knowing what a good price looks like before the banners go up. A “40% off” sticker on an inflated anchor price is worse value than a quiet 15% off an honest one.
