When does the Argos sale end?
Time is ticking for anyone hoping to make the most of Argos’ Big Red Event.
The sale is set to wrap up on 14 October, so there’s only a narrow window left to secure those headline savings.
Argos has been rolling out discounts across tech, toys, appliances, and homewares, but as stocks start to dwindle, the best deals are moving fast.
If you’re planning to refresh your home or get ahead on Christmas shopping, now’s the moment to act.
Once the curtain falls on this event, those double Nectar points and exclusive discount codes will be gone for another year.
How often does Argos have sales?
Argos doesn’t believe in making shoppers wait for a bargain.
The retailer is known for running sales almost every week, with fresh discounts regularly available across categories such as tech, toys, home, and garden.
Major events—think Black Friday, Boxing Day, and the Big Red Event—are just the tip of the iceberg.
In between, you’ll spot flash sales, weekend deals, and seasonal promotions that keep the savings coming.
For anyone who loves a good deal (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t?), Argos is a retailer worth watching closely—there’s nearly always an opportunity to save if you time it right.
When is the Argos Black Friday sale?
Argos is a major player on Black Friday, and the retailer rarely waits for the official date to kick things off.
In recent years, Argos Black Friday deals have started dropping as early as 1 November, giving shoppers a head start on the savings race.
Expect this year to follow suit, with discounts on everything from smart TVs to vacuum cleaners landing well before the main event.
If you’re hoping to snap up a bargain, it’s worth keeping an eye on the Argos site from the start of November—those headline offers don’t tend to stick around for long.
Does Argos do January sales?
Argos launches its January sale right after the New Year, giving shoppers the whole month to hunt for bargains.
The discounts run until 31 January, so there’s plenty of time to treat yourself to something new.
The January 2025 sale was a standout, with price drops of up to 66% on selected electronics and home appliances.
One of the best deals? The Remington Shea Soft Hair Dryer, which dropped from £50 to just £17—a huge saving that had beauty fans buzzing.
All these offers were available both in-store and online, with delivery from just £3.95 and speedy same-day options for those who couldn’t wait.
