The simple tip guaranteed to save you money in 2024 Boxing Day sales

Now the slog of Christmas shopping is over, the real fun begins, with many retailers offering deals in heavily discounted sales from Boxing Day through January; a small consolation for the money we spent in December. But it’s too easy to get trigger-happy when rifling through racks or creating bargain-filled baskets online, treating ourselves to things we wouldn’t usually buy and definitely don’t need.
To get the most out of the post-Christmas sales, why not only stock up on the items you know will pay off? We’re talking staple pieces, the ones you actually need — not new versions of the items that are lying dormant in your wardrobe, sad, lonely and ignored.
So, go on, shop your wardrobe before shopping the sales to make the most of the Boxing Day bonanza. Here’s how. What do we mean by shopping your wardrobe? Put simply, you need to rifle through your clothes and evaluate what you already own. As stylist Oriona Robb puts it, it’s about, ‘restyling and rediscovering pieces, and curating outfits from your existing collection rather than rushing to buy new items.’.
It’s sort of like how we check our cupboards before we go to the supermarket — because no one wants three bags of sprouting potatoes. It’s also a good time to declutter. ‘By decluttering,’ Oriona tells Metro, ‘you’ll not only free up space but develop a clearer understanding of what’s missing, helping you shop smarter during the sales.’.
