Mark you calendars deals fans, Click Frenzy Mayhem is just one week away!

That's right, the annual sales event – one of my personal favourites of the entire deals calendar – is set to kick off on Tuesday, May 13 and will run until Friday, May 16.

Click Frenzy Mayhem is the second Click Frenzy sales event in 2025, the first being the inaugural PayPal Frenzy back in March. While that sale did deliver some tantalising deals, I'm holding out hope that the more established Click Frenzy Mayhem will really ramp things up where savings and discounts are concerned. There's nothing worse than an anti-climactic sales event in my opinion.

As ever, the TechRadar team and I will be sniffing out the very best bargains as soon as they land, and I in particular will be keeping an eye on any early deals that show up before the big day.

It's not your only chance to save big during the year of course, with the likes of Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday and the EOFY sales all arriving in the not-too-distant future. Plus, I've also spotted a new Tech Frenzy sale (from the people behind Click Frenzy) set to arrive in late June to coincide with EOFY and it has the potential to become my new favourite sale of the year.

Click Frenzy Mayhem 2025: participating retailers

The list of retailers below held Click Frenzy sales during the last event in March 2025. While most are expected to return for Mayhem, it's ultimately too early to make a definitive statement. I'll be keeping our eyes peeled for new deals when they arrive on Tuesday, May 13 and will update this list as soon as possible.

Click Frenzy 2025: what you need to know

What is Click Frenzy?

Click Frenzy is an online sale that brings together thousands of deals from a huge variety of Australian retailers onto one website, with discounts available on tech, appliances, fashion, homewares and more.

Inspired by Black Friday sales in the US, Click Frenzy was created in Australia in 2012 and was originally meant to be held twice a year. There was one sale in May called Click Frenzy Mayhem, and another in November (first called Click Frenzy Go Wild, but now known as The Main Event).

As its popularity grew, Click Frenzy expanded to several sale events throughout the year in 2024. There was Click Frenzy Julove in July, and Click Frenzy Travel which has been held in various different months. Click Frenzy also first started as a strictly 24-hour sale – starting at 7pm on one day and ending at 7pm the next – but it has since expanded significantly to 53 hours of deal hunting.

When is Click Frenzy 2025?

The next Click Frenzy event is called Click Frenzy Mayhem, and it officially kicks off on Tuesday, May 13 and will run until Friday, May 16. Deals will officially go live at 7pm AEST on the Tuesday and run until midnight on Friday, May 16.

How does Click Frenzy work?

Click Frenzy collects thousands of deals from dozens of retailers onto a single website where you can easily see what’s available, and you don’t need to be a member to shop any of the deals.

There are benefits to being a member, however. For a start, members get exclusive access to Click Frenzy’s signature 99% off deals. Lucky for you, it’s free to sign up.

In previous Click Frenzy sales, the deals have included a PS5 for just AU$6, a Nintendo Switch for AU$5 and Apple MacBooks for just AU$19. These discounts are limited in number, with limited stock, and pop up at random times on the site for members who are ready and waiting (and signed in). There is usually a question to answer first, and if you get it right, you'll be notified of your chance to buy the item at a heavily discounted price.

Click Frenzy members also get access to the deals via the official website 30 minutes before everyone else.

Is Click Frenzy better than Black Friday?

I've been following both Click Frenzy and Black Friday sales for many years now (more than I'd like to admit), so I can say from genuine experience that Black Friday sales are still generally better than Click Frenzy deals. There are a few reasons for this – firstly, only select retailers participate in Click Frenzy sales, whereas almost all Aussie retailers will get in on the Black Friday shopping bandwagon.

Historically, Amazon Australia and eBay Australia do not participate in Click Frenzy sale events, and I know from experience that these two online-only stores have some of the best deals on Black Friday. Other big-name Aussie stores such as JB Hi-Fi and The Good Guys have joined the Click Frenzy sales on occasion, but they don’t always participate. They do most definitely participate during Black Friday sales.

Is Click Frenzy just online?

Click Frenzy is traditionally an online-only event. After all, you 'click' on store pages and products. It's uncommon to find physical stores hosting the same or similar sales, but miracles can happen. If you do want to go to a physical store, then at the very least you could always select a click and collect option at the checkout.

Click Frenzy Mayhem 2025: standout deals from the March sale

So, now you know what Click Frenzy is, how it works, and the probable retailers that will get involved. But what about the actual deals to expect? While it's still a little too early to know for sure, I've picked out a few deals from the previous Click Frenzy sale in Australia to give you a good idea of what to expect.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 earbuds:

Save AU$150

Headphones are always going to be on the agenda during Click Frenzy, especially with Sennheiser being a confirmed brand. This AU$150 saving on the excellent Momentum True Wireless 4 Earbuds was a particular highlight, given the fact we already thought they represented great value at full price.

LG B4 OLED (55-inch):

Save AU$904

TVs are always high on my wish list when searching for excellent deals and this AU$900 saving on the excellent LG B4 OLED granted that wish during the previous sale. With a new 2025 range of LG OLEDs on the market, I'll be hoping for even greater discounts next time round.

Dyson V15 Detect Absolute:

Save AU$550

I'll admit it takes a lot for me to get excited by a vacuum cleaner. But I was definitely excited by this huge AU$550 saving on the powerful Dyson V15 Detect. I know a lot of readers use sales such as Click Frenzy to upgrade their home cleaner, so rest assured I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for similar savings during the Mayhem sale.

Nespresso Vertuo Pop (DeLonghi):

Save AU$130

Ahh coffee, the most wonderful morning elixir. While you may get a lot more control from an automatic or manual coffee machine, there's a lot to be said of the sheer convenience of a Nespresso machine. I have this model myself at home, and it's ease of use coupled with an excellent selection of delicious Vertuo pods makes it my morning hero. Expect there to be plenty more coffee machine deals during the next Click Frenzy sale.

Lenovo Legion 5i 16-inch (Gen 9) | Core i9-14900HX / RTX 4060 / 32GB / 1TB SSD :

Save AU$1,571

Lenovo regularly comes out all guns blazing with stellar deals during sales such as Click Frenzy, and this AU$1,500 saving sure proved that during the previous event. I'll be making sure our resident computer buffs at TechRadar towers help me filter out the wheat from the chaff when it comes to PC and laptop deals next week.
