Norwich Evening News editor David Powles said: 'We are delighted to offer our readers the chance to win one of these fantastic prizes in the run-up to Christmas.

'There are hundreds of things to win in the Black Friday Giveaway such as Christmas hampers, beauty treatments and dinner vouchers.

'And all you need to do to enter is answer one simple question.'

With origins in the United States, Black Friday takes place on the day after Thanksgiving and is considered to mark the start of the Christmas shopping period.

Recent years have seen UK retailers embracing the concept, offering discounts and promotions to rival their transatlantic colleagues, and British shoppers have come to expect a bumper shopping day of bargains and bonuses.

Predictions are that British shoppers will spend £2.3m a minute this Black Friday – a 19pc increase on last year.

Some 14 million British consumers are expected to participate in the global shopping event and will spend a predicted total of £1.96bn.

Full details of how to enter the Black Friday Giveaway will be revealed in Thursday's Evening News.
