The Boxing Day sales are staples of the festive period in the UK. But queues at stores have now been replaced by shopping from the comfort of your sofa (mince pie<\/a> and mulled wine<\/a> in hand), with all the biggest retailers taking part \u2013 think M&S<\/a>, Next<\/a>, John Lewis<\/a>, Amazon <\/a>and more.<\/p>\n

With Black Friday feeling like yesterday, it\u2019s easy to feel sceptical about whether the Boxing Day deals are really worthwhile. As a consumer writer, I know how to spot a deal from a dud \u2013 my top tip to you is using price-tracking websites such as PriceSpy and PriceRunner, so you can see how much an item\u2019s price has changed over time and find the cheapest place to buy it.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s how I\u2019ll be finding bargains throughout the Boxing Day sales, so I can bring you the best deals. Rest assured, I\u2019ll only feature products that are worth your money. With the Boxing Day sales kicking off this week, with deals expected at Currys<\/a>, Argos and more, here\u2019s everything you need to know \u2013 including the deals I\u2019m expecting to see.<\/p>\n

When do the Boxing Day sales start in 2025?<\/p>\n

When do the Boxing Day sales start in 2025? Technically the Boxing Day sales start on, you guessed it, Boxing Day (Friday, 26 December). However, some retailers launch their sales earlier for the benefit of the last-minute Christmas shoppers, meaning that \u2013 confusingly \u2013 some \u2018Boxing Day\u2019 sales start before Christmas Eve has even arrived. While they aren\u2019t officially labelling the sales as Boxing Day, the likes of Amazon<\/a>, Argos, Currys, Boots<\/a> and John Lewis all have deals on right now.<\/p>\n

Crowned the \u201cbest-value Airpods ever\u201d by tech critic David Phelan<\/a> in his review of Apple\u2019s AirPods 4<\/a>, these buds come with \u201cexcellent\u201d sound quality and battery life. \u201cThe regular AirPods 4 are the direct successor to AirPods second-generation and represent a very big upgrade for almost the same price,\u201d said David. \u201cThey do more, they sound better and they look neater than the second-gen model.\u201d You can currently pick up the AirPods 4 for just shy of \u00a3100 at John Lewis, Argos<\/a>, Currys <\/a>and other retailers.<\/p>\n

(Currys)<\/p>\n

Electric toothbrushes are always on sale, so you\u2019ll likely never have to pay full price for one. However, if you need one right now, there\u2019s a modest discount on the Oral-B pro 3 3500 at Currys \u2013 we haven\u2019t tested this exact model, but Oral-B is one of our favourite brands when it comes to the best electric toothbrushes<\/a>. It comes with all the bells and whistles: a timer function, a pressure sensor and two weeks\u2019 worth of battery life, according to the brand. I\u2019ll let you know if it gets any cheaper as we get closer to Boxing Day.<\/p>\n

The latest Kindle paperwhite has nearly 20 per cent off in Amazon\u2019s sale. When tech writer Steve Hogarty<\/a> reviewed the best Kindles for 2025<\/a>, the paperwhite took the top spot. \u201cFor most readers, the mid-range Kindle strikes the best balance between cost and features,\u201d wrote Steve. \u201cThe inclusion of a softer reading light that can be made warmer for more comfortable reading at night is worth the small step up in price. On top of that, you get a slightly larger display, slimmer bezels, sharper text and a noticeably faster processor,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm (Elemis)<\/p>\n

Crowned \u201cthe GOAT of facial cleansers\u201d by IndyBest beauty writer Lucy Smith<\/a>, the Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm regularly features in the sales, so it\u2019s one to watch if Santa doesn\u2019t bring you any. This product was discounted across many retailers in the Black Friday sales, so I\u2019ll check for further reductions in the Boxing Day deals. The formula also impressed beauty expert Louise Whitbread<\/a>, who wrote in her Elemis cleansing balm review<\/a> that \u201cit doesn\u2019t irritate sensitive skin, smells amazing and is a swift and efficacious way to remove make-up\u201d.<\/p>\n

(Oura)<\/p>\n

The gold standard for wearables in the wellness space, Oura rings are rarely on offer \u2013 so this generous saving of \u00a3100 at Boots is worth shouting about (and it matches the Black Friday discount). In his review of the Oura ring 4<\/a>, senior tech critic Alex Lee<\/a> said the main benefit, compared with buying the gen 3 version, is the “improved durability, comfort and accuracy\u201d. Alex added: \u201cThis isn\u2019t a generational upgrade over the Oura ring 3, merely strengthening its position as the best smart ring out there for sleep tracking and recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n

Discounts on the 2024 airwrap i.d. model have continued following Black Friday. The covetable Dyson buy has been reduced by \u00a350 at a bunch of retailers, including Argos. Beauty writer Elena Chabo<\/a> put the hair tool to the test for her Dyson airwrap i.d. review<\/a>. Elena said the device will \u201cset you up for almost every styling need, halve your styling time and minimise damage to hair\u201d. Promising good hair in 2026, snap it up while stocks last. <\/p>\n

With 8K graphics, more internal memory and improved ray tracing, the PS5 Pro is \u201cthe best console out there right now, blowing the Xbox Series X out of the water\u201d, says our senior tech critic Alex Lee<\/a>. This is about the cheapest you\u2019ll find it for right now, but it was cheaper in last year\u2019s Boxing Day sales, so I\u2019ll be keeping an eye out for a better deal. <\/p>\n

In her guide to the best mattresses of 2025<\/a>, resident sleep expert Sarah Jones<\/a> chose Simba\u2019s hybrid luxe as her top pick. She said it improved her sleep significantly, kept her cool during the summer months and warm in winter. Sarah wrote in her review: \u201cI found that it offered support for my joints and helped me lie straight. It also offers the ideal balance between a firm and medium sleeping base.\u201d It may be pricey, but with a discount of \u00a3425, now could be the perfect time to try it for yourself in 2026. <\/p>\n

Testing the Daewoo 700ml dehumidifier on a shelf next to a houseplant (Joanne Lewsley)<\/p>\n

A dehumidifier is a game changer for tackling damp and mould in your home, and this one from Daewoo is compact enough to fit on your desk. \u201cDaewoo\u2019s 700ml unit is the best budget dehumidifier I tested,\u201d said tester Joanne Lewsley<\/a> in her best dehumidifiers<\/a> round-up. While it\u2019s not suitable for tackling humidity in large spaces, \u201cit\u2019s a good fit for a downstairs toilet or a camper van and small enough to sit on a windowsill if you have a problem with condensation\u201d. Last year, the price was reduced in the Boxing Day sale, so we could see a reduction again this year.<\/p>\n

How long do Boxing Day sales last?<\/p>\n

Once upon a time, the Boxing Day sales lasted for one day only, and bargain hunters would have to get out bright and early to secure the goods. These days, however, the sale event runs through January, so there\u2019s no need to rush.<\/p>\n

Are the Boxing Day sales better than the January sales?<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be fooled by the name \u2013 the Boxing Day sales aren\u2019t much different to the January sales that follow. From 26 December to 31 January, you\u2019ll find the same products discounted, and often, the price will continue to drop even lower as we move through January. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for something in particular, though, such as a piece of clothing in your size or a highly sought-after piece of tech, it may be worth making your purchase as soon as you spot a discount, as sale items are not always replenished.<\/p>\n

Why is it called Boxing Day?<\/p>\n

Many of us were told that Boxing Day was named after the sport, but actually, the name comes from a period during the reign of Queen Victoria when the rich used to box up gifts to give to the poor. It was traditionally a day off for servants.<\/p>\n
