Black Friday is MR PRICE’s biggest trading moment of the year — and naturally, one of the loudest, most competitive spaces to exist in as a designer.
This project lived in that tension.
It was about creating high-impact, high-volume social work that could cut through a crowded retail landscape, while still feeling native to organic social — not just ads dressed up as posts.
The thinking leaned into a bold, recognisable design language that pushed deals to the forefront, but still left room for product, personality, and pace.
At its core, this was a system built for scale — designed to flex across multiple audiences (Adults & Kids), formats, and timeframes, without losing clarity or consistency.
The campaign unfolded across three key phases:
Pre-awareness
Week lead-up
Black Friday day
Each one dialling up urgency, frequency, and visual intensity.
And like most things at this scale — it came together through a lot of moving parts,
rounds of reviews, constant refinements, and more late nights than I can count! Very proud of where we landed and what was executed.
