This Wednesday morning from 7 a.m. sharp, French merchants will formalize thousands of bargains on their respective sites. The French Days will start with a bang this year with the most beautiful brands at reduced prices. Cdiscount, Fnac, Darty or Boulanger will be the main architects of this operation, which takes place from May 4 to 9, 2022.
Although the event was originally Franco-French, it won the hearts of foreign merchants such as Amazon and AliExpress. These two ogres of e-commerce do not miss an opportunity to make people talk regarding them in France, and they will participate in these French Days 2022. Below, the offers that are already available in real time.

The French Days have enjoyed growing success over the years. They take place twice a year, at strategic times. The first is at the beginning of May, while the second episode takes place at the end of September. These are periods which historically are rather calm for e-commerce and which are therefore boosted with generous offers for this operation.
Unlike the sales for example, the French Days on Cdiscount and others do not allow you to make sales at a loss. It’s the same principle for Black Friday: except during sales, merchants cannot sell their merchandise below their purchase price. That said, they can squeeze their margins to the max to offer generous discounts on all brands. That said, the French government actively supports the French Days.
A big success for these French Days
Faced with the importance of American Black Friday, French e-merchants wanted to create their own event. Amazon, which has dominated the French market for years, also launched its own operation with Prime Day. The French Days of Cdiscount, Fnac and company are therefore a direct and relevant response to all these foreign events.
Can we compare all these operations in e-commerce? Yes, because merchants are almost as dynamic during the French Days as during Black Friday. They are committed to success and the reductions are therefore very aggressive. If the operation does not yet have the popularity of Black Friday, it is still a great commercial success.
To achieve their goal, Cdiscount and consort are getting great deals during the French Days. In the electronic part for example, it is the big brands such as Apple, Samsung, Bose, LG, Philips, Xiaomi or Sony that are highlighted. It is even the latest generations of products from these brands that offer great discounts.
On the appliance part, we can also expect to see extreme reductions on a large part of the catalog. For example, the Dyson, Roborock and other Prosenics should see their prices drop by at least 30%. These high-end robot (or not) vacuum cleaners are very successful. The French Days are the perfect time to take action.
As with each episode of the French Days on Cdiscount, Fnac and others, you have to know how to be ultra-responsive from the first hours. This Wednesday morning at 7:00 a.m. sharp, you will have to validate your purchases to maximize savings. The more time passes, the fewer offers there are available. The most prestigious products will leave at full speed. On AliExpress, the French Days start at 9:00 am but the discounts are already indicated.
What are the big offers of the French Days?
While generalist e-merchants are the great architects of the success of the French Days, there are a few direct brands that offer advantageous prices. This is for example the case of the world reference NordVPN which offers a formula (worthy of an excellent Black Friday) on its VPN software and its antivirus. This drops to 2.89 euros (instead of 10.59 euros), which makes it unbeatable. The tech editor is going to make a tidal wave for this operation, no doubt.
Otherwise, Cdiscount will spearhead the operation on the retailers’ side. It will highlight thousands of products for the summer, the most beautiful high-tech brands as well as the big names in household appliances. You can be sure that these French Days will be Cdiscount’s big highlight for this first half of 2022. To save money, this is the right place.
Other outsider merchants include Amazon and AliExpress. If the first has been around for a long time with attractive flash offers, AliExpress is in force. As you can see higher on the list, Xiaomi will be widely represented with all its brands (Mi, Redmi, Poco etc). The world’s leading platform is also very active on Apple products, and in particular wireless headphones.
The selection above will be updated in real time. We therefore invite you to put this page in your favorites to find the best offers for these French Days at any time: Cdiscount, Fnac, AliExpress or Amazon have planned to wreak havoc with shock offers – we have warned you. It’s at the level of a Black Friday, without the notoriety that goes with it.
Security when buying online
When you buy online, you cannot physically “test” the product. However, merchants are obliged to give you a safety net – including during French Days and other Black Fridays. You therefore have at least 14 days to change your mind following delivery of the package, return the product and obtain a full refund.
Some merchants like Amazon go even further as they offer 30 days to change their mind. In any case, you have all the time you need to make up your own mind regarding a product, at home. For the French Days, all offers are published at the same time this Wednesday: so don’t miss out to take advantage of the best deals. And in the worst case, you can always return the product.
