Tips for the Boxing Day sales

  1. Know the ones to watch. Since Boxing Day sales have been around for decades - unlike Black Friday - it’s easy to predict exactly which stores will be dropping huge discounts, even if they’re not announced before. Boxing Day deals are often not marketed in advance, because sellers want your focus to be on Christmas. Here are the shops that usually drop big deals:
    • Adobe: Past years have seen over 50% cuts to apps on the Creative Cloud.

    • Amazon: Big deals across the board. Keep up to date on the latest Amazon deals here.

    • Argos: This retail giant often offers big discounts on electrical items on Boxing Day.

    • Curry’s: Pretty much yearly, Curry’s can be counted on to offer up to 70% off on laptops, televisions and more electronics.

  2. Ask for gift vouchers for Chrstimas. Boxing day sales can yield the highest savings of the year, especially on electronics, so consider asking for gift cards for Christmas, to spend on Boxing Day.

  3. Use cash back cards. There are lots of cash back card options to suit different needs: if you work for the NHS, you can apply for a cash back card (find more on NHS discounts here). You can also sign up for reward credit cards at certain stores - like John Lewis, M&S and Tesco - as well as credit cards with cash back. With the latter, though, make sure you pay off your card by the end of the month. Otherwise, you’ll almost definitely lose more money in interest than you gain in cash back!
