A MUM has revealed how she has already stocked up for Christmas 2025 thanks to raiding the sales at The Works.
The savvy shopper shared how she picked up a whopping 50 items for just £30 at the high street retailer.
Taking to the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, she shared a photo of some of the bits she picked up.
The mum picked up a collection of fun Christmas headbands for her kids, along with some festive elf sun glasses.
She also got wrapping paper and some ‘Letters to Santa’ kits, among other bargains.
The bargain hunter told fellow shoppers: “Jumped straight onto The Works… for little Miss Christmas here… I am over the moon!
“50 items for £30!
“Gifts bags, wrap n all their headbands were 50p… bring on Christmas 2025.”
The Works isn’t the only retailer to be offering incredible discounts following the New Year.
Primark has launched “seasonal sales” in some of its stores, offering shoppers up to 50 per cent off.
Signs promoting the hefty discounts have been spotted across shops.
The budget retailer prides itself on selling fashion at affordable prices all year round.
For that reason, it doesn’t run traditional seasonal Black Friday, Boxing Day or January sales.
But, Primark has confirmed to The Sun it does offer “seasonal markdowns throughout the year” – which in essence replicate January sales.
Shoppers are also being treated to some big-brand discounts at Currys.
The high-street store’s January Sale has begun, with savings on items like TVs, vacuums, electric toothbrushes and air fryers.
Mum-of-four and money-saving influencer Casey Major-Bunce, 32, from Portsmouth, knows how to work the high street to find the best savings.
Casey says: “I love January sales and you can get a real bargain if you look in the right places.
“Fancy a fresh pair of trainers or something for your home?
“Most websites have a live chat these days.
“Take five minutes to say hello, and they’ll often reward you with a code for an extra ten per cent off the sale price.”
Casey also advised another way to get a discount from online shops.
Simply open a new email account each time you buy, and you will get money off every time.
She said: “Online stores like Asos offer up to 15 per cent off just for being a new customer.
“But if you’re a regular customer, this doesn’t mean you can’t cash in on the perk.
“Sign up for a new email address and you’ll shave even more off the cost of your shopping haul in the sale.”
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save money on your Christmas shopping.
Limit the amount of presents – buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb.
Instead, why not organise a Secret Santa between your inner circles so you’re not having to buy multiple presents.
Plan ahead – if you’ve got the stamina and budget, it’s worth buying your Christmas presents for the following year in the January sales.
Make sure you shop around for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you’re not forking out more than you should though.
Buy in Boxing Day sales – some retailers start their main Christmas sales early so you can actually snap up a bargain before December 25.
Delivery may cost you a bit more, but it can be worth it if the savings are decent.
Shop via outlet stores – you can save loads of money shopping via outlet stores like Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts.
They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually any wear and tear is minor.
