With December in full swing, Christmas is inching closer and that means the Boxing Day sales will arrive soon, too. This part of the festive season offers the perfect opportunity to save money on practical picks and treat buys with your Christmas cash. You may be looking for a new dehumidifier, mattress, beauty product or maybe you’re in the market for shopping some Boxing Day sale power tool deals.

Power tools are a year-round staple for DIY tasks and they include cordless drills, leaf blowers, pressure washers, and strimmers. Should you need to do some jobs around the house or in the garden, or fancy filling up your tool kit for less, the Boxing Day sales are the time to shop.

All the big-name retailers will be serving up discounts, from Argos and Amazon to Currys, John Lewis and more.

Here’s everything we know about when the Boxing Day sales power tool deals will start, the best discounts to expect and a few early reductions we’ve spotted to shop now.

When do the Boxing Day sales power tool deals start 2023?

As the name suggests, the Boxing Day sales traditionally start on 26 December. However, these seasonal discounts seem to appear earlier and earlier each year. There have been savings to shop at retailers including Amazon and Argos from the beginning of December onwards, and while more deals will drop from Boxing Day, it’s worth taking an early look too.

What power tool Boxing Day deals can we expect in 2023?

It’s handy to look at past sale events to get a steer for what we can expect. Judging by last year’s Boxing Day deals and the recent Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, we’re hoping to see savings from popular power tool brands including Bosch, Flymo, Karcher and Milwaukee.
