Three-day super sale in Dubai

Following on from its April stint, Dubai’s popular three-day super sale (3DSS) shopping event is back for its seventh run this month, from Thursday, October 31 to Saturday, November 2.

Hundreds of brands in most major Dubai malls – spanning categories such as fashion, footwear, jewellery, accessories, health, homeware, sports apparel and electronics – will slash prices by up to 90 per cent.

The sale will also extend to multi-brand stores such as Robinsons, Debenhams, Salam Studio, Centrepoint and Marks & Spencer, plus supermarkets such as Carrefour, Lulu, Choithrams and Union Coop.

Hint: even if you can't spot an obvious sales banner outside some stores, it's well worth checking with staff if they have discounts on select items. We're looking at you, Bloomingdale's and Harvey Nichols.

Here’s where you should head based on what you need and want.
