Let the January sales commence! The sales are taking place all over the internet right now and I've seen some major savings in the winter sales. It would appear that some of the big brands have saved the best savings until now. Here are our absolute favourite sales for 2026.
- Best for all-round sales: Marks & Spencer and John Lewis cater for everyone in the family and the savings are elite. Amazon is also the ultimate sale destination.
- Best for designer deals: Selfridges and NETAPORTER are guaranteed to get you some designer purchases for less.
- Best for beauty lovers: Boots has lots of epic deals on beauty products, as well as LOOK FANTASTIC and Space NK.
How I chose the best January 2026 sales
- Personal opinion: My name is Leanne and I've worked over several shopping events for the past 17 years and would consider myself as a professional when it comes to shopping for deals. All of the deals I've included in the list are ones that I'd shop myself, so I believe they're truly worth spending your money on.
- Variety: Whether you're shopping for clothing, makeup, home items, or fitness equipment to kickstart the new year, I've picked out a range of deals to suit shoppers' needs.
- Price: After Christmas we're all feeling the pinch which means it's important to spend savvy in January. I've chosen a range of price points to suit every budget.
- Trusted brands: The retailers included are in the list not only for their epic discounts, but I've only included brands that I know and love myself.
Happy shopping!
