Happy New Year, reader and thanks for dropping by to check out our roundup of the very best deals in the January sales 2019. A few stores launched sales straight after Christmas, with not many holding back for the traditional January sales, so we’ve had plenty of time to dig through the best offers. But of course, we’ve added some brand new ones today too as we start our daily deals coverage with a bang in 2019.
After all, you’re probably back at work soon, so don’t be daft getting involved with those horrible queues at retail park car parks or looking for the non-event deals on the highstreet. Online’s where the best bargains to be had – just like Black Friday. And we’ll save you the time of trawling through loads of different online stores trying to spot the bargains. We’ve got our eye on prices all year round, so we know a good deal when we see one.
So sit back, scroll down a little and you’ll see we’ve listed the best offers of the day so far. We’ll update this page throughout the day and tomorrow too, as some of these deals may go on for a few days – although if you see something you like today, don’t bank on it being around tomorrow, just to be safe.

Hisense H55U7AUK 55-inch 4K HDR TV | Now £538.99 at AmazonThis is a fantastic 4K HDR model from Hisense.

Mobile phones
Huawei Mate 20 Pro | O2 | £69 upfront | 50GB 100GB data | Unlimited minutes and texts | £45pmHere we have it, the best deal on the Mate 20 Pro right now. Not only do you pay a tiny upfront fee and very little monthly but you also get an absolutely massive 100GB of data. That should be more than plenty for most people and will allow for hours of streaming and general internet use.View Deal
iPhone XS | O2 | £159 Upfront | Unlimited minutes and texts | 50GB 100GB data | £55pmNo XS deal comes near to this. The upfront fee is reasonable compared to most other deals (which is a miracle when it comes to the XS) and just £55 a month is very reasonable for what is one of the most expensive phones on the market right now, not to mention you’re getting an absolutely massive 100GB of data – this really is the best deal on the XS right now.View Deal
iPhone XR | O2 | £140.99 Upfront | Unlimited minutes and texts | 50GB 100GB data | £45pmThis iPhone XR deal does need a £140.99 upfront fee to get going, but after that you’re only paying £45 a month for a whopping 100GB of data.View Deal
Google Pixel 3 XL | O2 | £61.99 Upfront | Unlimited minutes and texts | 50GB 100GB data | £45pmThis is the best price we have seen on the Google Pixel 3 XL in 2019. For a massive 100GB of data you only have to pay £45 a month, that is an absolute bargain overall and looks closer to the kind of prices you would be paying on the regular-sized Google Pixel 3. View Deal
iPhone XR at Mobiles.co.uk | O2 | £125 upfront | 30GB data | Unlimited minutes and texts | £38pmThis is easily our favourite XR deal at the moment.

There’s no need to scrimp on data – 30GB each month will be plenty for most people.View Deal

So who’s having a January sale?
All the big stores get stuck in. With so many keen shoppers going online over the Christmas period in recent years, it’s just too good a chance for them to finish 2018 off with some extra money in the bank and get 2019 off to a good start too. Let’s take a look at the big hitters below and what you can nab from each.
The Amazon January sale is a great place to start. Amazon has been on a discounting rampage since mid-November and it certainly won’t be slowing down any time soon. We usually get an early look at the deals a few days before so we can prep highlights of the best ones in advance and then tell you about them as soon as they go live. And seeing as Amazon has a lot of deals going on at once even on a quiet day, getting straight to the good ones will save you a lot of time browsing through tat.

Currys impressed us in the January sales last year (and more recently on Black Friday) with big discounts on TVs, laptops, gaming consoles, Dyson cordless vacuum cleaners, kitchen electricals and more so expect something similar this time around. Keep an eye out for the TV ads showing off the best ones too.
View today’s deals: Currys
Very.co.uk has been a regular on our deals pages throughout the year and we expect it to have tempting offers on TVs, laptops and consoles once again along with other gadgets. Very is also a top fashion, home and beauty item retailer too so expect a wide gamut of deals.

AO is one of our go-to retailers when we’re scouring the net for cheap TV deals or laptop deals all year round. AO really specialises in home electrics though and it’s a fantastic time of year to upgrade with a new fridge, freezer, washing machine, kettle, microwave and the like.

John Lewis doesn’t really like sales, but it does like to nab customers from other retailers by offering a price match service. Why bother with the faff? Because John Lewis offers a two year guarantee on a huge selection of items at no extra charge, which is great for peace of mind when buying electrical items. Despite its disdain for sales, we saw JL unleash some sweet TV, laptop and electrical item deals on Black Friday and it’ll get involved again during this sales period.

Argos is one of those retailers who always seem to be having a sale. So it’ll be sure to a song and dance for the January sales. Annoyingly, much of its stock is region-based, but you can check availability by entering your postcode before going through the checkout process. Discounted prices on laptops, TVs, toys and console bundles are still well worth a look.

CDKeys.com is one of the cheapest places on the net for PC games all year round and offer fantastic prices followed by instant delivery of the code, with major platforms like Steam, uPlay, Origins and Battlenet supported. It’s not all about the PC crowd though as CDKeys have some of the best deals going on PS Plus and Xbox Live Gold memberships too.

The Zavvi January sales are usually worth a look, especially for film and TV fans. Zavvi has a huge range of exclusive steelbook editions of movies old and new too. Pop culture merchandise is a big seller there too.

Mobiles.co.uk is taking advantage of the growing trend to buy and upgrade phone contracts online rather than on the highstreet. This site offered the very best mobile phone deals back on Black Friday so you can expect more of the same from this trusted mobile phone seller – and we’ve seen a couple of great iPhone / Samsung Galaxy deals this year if you’re thinking of an upgrade.

Carphone Warehouse is an established highstreet retailer and is also one of the best online phone retailers now. We’ll picked out the best mobile phone deals, whether they’re standalone smartphones, contract phones, voucher codes or whatever else looks like a great mobile deal to us.

When do the Boxing Day sales start?
Not a silly question at all. As we just said, a lot of stores are starting today and we expect even more will go live on Christmas Day – yes they’re pretty keen. If just before Christmas is the time to scramble for last-minute gifts, anytime from the day itself onwards is the chance to treat yourself or use those gift vouchers to make a great deal a truly spectacular bargain.
When do the January sales start?
Expect an early start here too. Although if we’re going off the last few years, the January sales haven’t been particularly special. It’s been all about the Boxing Day deals really, although we’re pleased to report some of the better ones stayed online a good few days into January. January sales are more of a continuation of the remaining Boxing Day sales so you can probably expect to see many stores simply rebrand the sales to ‘January sales’ the day after Boxing Day on December 27th.
Given many workplaces are off until around January 2nd, retailers are keen to show you the best deals as soon as possible while you’ve got time off at home rather than try to push deals on you while you’re heading back to work or nursing that New Year’s Eve hangover.
