Amazon’s boxing Day The sale is here, with hundreds of discounts on tech, beautyHome appliances and more. This is a good opportunity to bargain.
As a consumer writer who covers sales events for a living, I can tell you that the retail giants often outperform their competitors on price. In this round-up, I’ve only included the lowest prices on any given product, but when you’re shopping for yourself, I’d always recommend shopping around to make sure you’re getting the best possible deal.
Like many retailers, Amazon makes its deals as attractive as possible by showing discounts against the RRP (recommended retail price), which may be higher than what the item is usually sold for. Basically, when you see that little red percentage next to the price, take it with a grain of salt. There’s a handy price tracking website called Camelcamelcamel, which lets you see how much Amazon typically sells a product for – just enter the product link.
Now onto the deals. As you can see, Amazon has cut the prices of many bestsellers, from Kindles to video games electric toothbrush – I’ve collected the best deals below.
