How long do Boxing Day sales last?

Boxing Day sales used to be a one-day event, where shoppers had to wake up early to snag the best deals. But today, the sales usually last for the rest of December and might even spill over to the first week of January. Let’s just say the month of December is referred to as a holiday shopping season for a reason.

Why is it called Boxing Day?

While it might share the same name with the sport of boxing, Boxing Day has a whole other meaning on its own. The tradition traces back to the Victorian era - a time when the rich would put items they no longer needed into boxes and give them to the less fortunate.It was also a day when servants were given time off and given a "special box" filled with treats as an appreciation for their hard work. They would then go to their homes to spend the 26th with their families, sharing the gifts given to them.

When do Boxing Day sales start?

Officially, Boxing Day sales are meant to start on 26th December. However, you’ll likely find plenty of deals all through the month of December.

Do Boxing Day sales last all week?

In most cases, Boxing Day sales will run for a week or more. This gives shoppers plenty of time to grab those post-Christmas bargains.

How does Boxing Day compare to other sales events?

Boxing Day is easily one of the biggest sales events of the year, almost rivalling the discounts and deals offered on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. However, unlike those sales that are geared to pre-holiday shopping, Boxing Day is all about clearing post-Christmas stock. You can find amazing discounts across various categories, including tech. This is usually a great time to shop for items that failed to make it under the tree as you can find deeper discounts compared to the pre-Christmas sales.
