Despite it being Christmas Day, several major retailers have initiated some of the biggest deals of the year so far, including Dyson, Ninja, Shark, Debenhams, Oodie, Ugg and Roman, with some discounts matching or surpassing the November sales.
Shoppers not only have the opportunity to indulge in a range of essentials and desirable items, but there’s also the chance to secure significant savings on last-minute gifts for family or friends if you’re willing to wait for delivery.
Here’s our selection of some of the biggest deals so far, as reported by Wales Online.
Dyson
If you’ve had your sights set on high-powered hair gadgets, they are the standout deal in Dyson’s Boxing Day sale, along with heaters, air purifiers and of course the iconic vacuums that started it all.
In the beauty department, limited edition colours and complimentary extras with purchase are available for a host of their bestsellers. You can also get £50 off the Dyson Airstrait and £70 off the Supersonic hairdryer plus a free storage case.
If you’re looking to start spring cleaning early for 2025, there’s a huge £170 off the Gen5Detect vacuum while their entry level V8 model is £120 off taking it to £209.
Ninja
Ninja, the kitchen gadget gurus, are finishing up a busy year where they’ve launched dozens of new products with a sale on many of the most-popular lines.
While not all the discounts are better-than-Black Friday, there’s still savings of up to £90 on many of their best-loved air fryers and multi-cookers. Meanwhile, the Ninja DoubleStack, which has a narrow footprint but double height for cooking and proved a hit with shoppers struggling for counter spaces in smaller kitchens, is not only slashed by £70 to £199, but also comes with freebies thrown in including silicone tongs and an apron.
Shoppers are also rushing to pick up some of Ninja’s lower ticket items, including knife blocks, kettles (including this one which is now at its lowest ever price) and travel bottles reduced by 33 percent to £19.99.
Shark
Shark, a brand worth considering for those planning a post-Christmas clean, has cut up to £150 off some of its most popular vacuum models in its Boxing Day sale. This includes high-powered robot and pet hair models.
The WandVac cordless vacuum, which is a favourite of Mrs Hinch, sold out on Black Friday but is now back in stock and reduced to £99.99, saving you a whopping £80. Beauty enthusiasts can also rejoice with deals on the brand’s SpeedStyle hairdryer and SmoothStyle hot brush, as well as savings on the trendy Wicked-themed FlexStyle multi-tool, now down to £229.99.
Debenhams
Debenhams may have vanished from our high streets, but savvy shoppers know that the brand’s website is a fantastic place to find massive discounts on both branded and unbranded items. Their Blue Cross sale offers up to 70 percent off, with an additional 20% off 10,000 lines.
With everything from designer watches marked down from £1,000 to £153, to perfume and bedlinen, there’s plenty to catch your eye.
Oodie
Oodie was known for offering some of the biggest discounts on Black Friday, delighting customers by slashing a huge 50 percent off everything site-wide.
While the Oodie Boxing Day sale doesn’t include everything this time, there are actually better-than-Black Friday savings on many of their hero products. Highlights include the original Oodie reduced to £35 from £65f, Outdoor Oodies down to £54.50, and half-price puffer boots.
Amazon
While Amazon is a go-to for many of us for those last-minute purchases, even after the final order dates have passed, there’s still plenty to explore.
Its sale focuses on Amazon devices, which may seem like a narrow selection until you consider that in recent years this has grown to include everything from tablets to smart TVs, as well as brands like Ring and Blink smart home and security tech.
Ugg
Ugg, a festive favourite for many, has slashed the price of some of its top-selling slippers by 30 percent, with comfy clogs available in various colours and sizes reduced from £140 to £98.
There are numerous other options in Ugg’s Winter Sale, with indoor and outdoor footwear for men, women and children all heavily discounted – including the brand’s Essential Mini Classic Boot.
Roman
Roman has not only launched their sale early, encompassing everything from partywear to PJs and wardrobe staples, but they’re also offering 99p next day delivery and an additional 10 percent off for a limited time. There are coats reduced by up to 41 percent, including this stylish faux fur aviator gilet reduced to £35 from £69.
Face the Future
If you’re in the market for discounted high-end skincare, Face the Future’s winter sale is offering up to 40 percent off on brands such as ESPA, NEOM, Olaplex and Augustinus Bader. This is a great opportunity to stock up on beauty essentials or pick up gift options like NEOM’s Wellbeing Pod.
