January Sales 2015: Best January tech and home deals in Winter sales


Christmas is over but it's not all bad. The January sales have already kicked off and there are few better periods of the year to spend your end-of-year bonuses than now. We'll be updating this page with the freshest, juiciest deals on the web, so keep checking back and have your bank card at the ready.


Amazon January Sale


Amazon's deals page includes time limited and non-time limited offers. Here are a handful that have grabbed our attention.

Asus MeMO Pad 7 (ME176CX) for £79: This good £120 Android tablet has just become even more attractive. Having originally retailed for around £150, it's not down to just £80. Click here for the deal.


Jolla Phone (SIM-free) for £199.99: Jolla made a few splashes with its unusual smartphone through 2014, and while it's by no means perfect, it's got heaps of potential. Sailfish OS is starkly different to anything we've come across before and the customisable rear is an interesting offering. Click here for the deal.


Kindle Fire HDX 7 from £99: It's small, easy-to-use and its excellent screen and speakers make it great for entertainment. It's a bargain for £100. Click here for the deal.


Apple iPad mini 2 with Retina display for £219.50: It's by no means the freshest gadget in Apple's line-up but the iPad mini 2 is still an excellent little tablet. As we sadly all know, even small price reductions on Apple products are worth shouting about, but this is very good deal. Click here for the deal.

Currys & PC World Sale


The Currys and PC World sales are in full swing and there are plenty of lip-smackingly good deals available. Here are some of the best.

Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 for £324: This is the lowest price we can find for Samsung's massive 12-inch tablet. It would have cost twice as much when it first came out. A good tablet if you love drawing as it's big and comes with Samsung's digitizer stylus. Click here for the deal.


Dyson DC41 Animal Mk2 (2015) for £319: The next best price we've seen is £329 on John Lewis and most sell it for £349. The best thing about this deal, however, is the DC41 Animal 2015 won Best Vacuum Cleaner in the 2014 TrustedReviews Awards. It's a terrific price for a great vacuum cleaner. Click here for the deal.


8GB Apple MacBook Air 13-inch for £849: Currys is also selling the base spec 13-inch MacBook Air but with 8GB RAM, which is effectively a RAM upgrade for free over the standard 4GB version. That's a saving of £80. Click here for the deal.


Epson Expression Premium XP-625 all-in-one wireless InkJet for £89.99: Buy an InkJet and... get a free night at a 4* hotel. This isn't just about gimmicks, though. Offering speeds of up to 32ppm, as well as duplex printing and wireless connectivity, the Epson could be a good addition to your home office. Click here for the deal.


DeLonghi Magnifica S ECAM 22.360.S bean to cup coffee machine for £349: Plenty of us are going to need help getting over the January blues, and there's few better things to get a kick up the backside from than a coffee machine. It makes espressos, cappuccinos and lattes, and has a 1.8l capacity and a really handy digital display. Originally up for £749.99, it's now available for far less than half price. Click here for the deal.


eBay Sale


eBay has a sales page that pulls in deals and special seller offers. It's a good place to keep an eye on, as we've seen some decent deals already.

Sony PS4 for £299 - We've seen similar deals elsewhere, but they come and go quickly. Argos on eBay has this deal currently, so get it while it’s hot. Click here for the deal.


Monster Beats by Dr Dre in-ear headphones for £24.99: At the time of writing, this offer has attracted over 17,000 buyers. Pick up a pair while stocks last, because it won't be long. Click here for the deal.


eBuyer Sale


We like the look of some of eBuyer's Daily Deals, but the pick of the bunch is the excellent LG G3 for just £299. Click here for the deal and keep checking back to see what else is on offer, because the page will constantly refresh itself.

John Lewis Sale


John Lewis may have blown people away with its 'Monty The Penguin' ad but its deals haven't quite hit the spot, apart from a small one. It's selling the Logitech PowerShell iPhone Gaming Controller for just £4.95. We didn't think much of it when we reviewed it, but back then it cost £100 or so. Click here for the deal.

Argos Sale


Argos is usually a good place for deal-hunting and it has a dedicated sales page . It's flogging both the Xbox One and PS4 at £299, while you can pick up the Nintendo Wii U Basic for just £144.99. Click here for the deal.

If you plan on driving a lot more and getting lost a little less in 2015, the £79.99 TomTom Start 20 (reduced from £199.99) is an excellent little car accessory. Click here for the deal.


Tesco Direct Sale


Tesco has deals on pretty much anything in its The Big Sale section, though that's not to say everything is a bona fide bargain. We've spotted a couple of decent-ish deals so far, including the first-gen iPad mini for £169 - a £30 saving on the Apple price (click here for the deal) - and the Samsung Galaxy Alpha for £399. Click here for the deal.

Vodafone Sale


Vodafone's SIM-only deals are worth taking a look at, as it has cut the prices on its Red Plan SIMs , all but one of which includes free Spotify, Now TV, Netflix or Sky Sports Mobile for six to 12 months - you choose which you want.

It’s also selling two of the hottest flagship smartphones out there for a drastically cut price. The Samsung Galaxy S5 is available for £279 here and the HTC One M8 can be picked up for £289 here.
