For the savvy shoppers among us, January is basically another Christmas, with deals
aplenty to save money – not just for now, but for the months to come. Fred Harrington, a.money-saving expert and the CEO of Coupon Mister, advises shoppers to take
advantage of deep discounts on high-value, durable items during this time.
“Not only is January a great time for finding a great deal – it’s full of them – it’s also about setting yourself up for a financially smarter year,” Fred explains. “When you focus on items that provide long-term benefits, the savings really add up.” Here, Fred shares his expert advice on the five best items to buy in January that can
help you save money all year long.
- Winter Clothing
January is the prime time for heavily discounted winter clothing as retailers clear out their seasonal stock. Essentials like coats, boots, and thermal wear often see
markdowns of up to 70%. Investing in durable winter clothing during these sales means you’ll be prepped for the next cold season without the dread of paying premium prices.
Fred’s Tip: “For me, buying clothing is about quality over quantity. Things that’ll last, like wool coats or sturdy boots can last years and save you from the endless cycle of splurging each winter - Home Furniture
One of the most discounted categories, furniture, is a regular fixture in the January
sales with retailers slashing prices to make room for new stock. Whether you’re looking for a sofa, dining set, or desk, January is the perfect time to upgrade your living space without breaking the bank.
Fred’s Tip: “If you buy correctly, furniture bought during sales not only improves your
home but also saves you from forking out by paying full price later.”
- Christmas Decorations
Sadly for decorations, they go out of season as soon as Christmas ends. From artificial trees to fairy lights and ornaments, clearance sales offer unbeatable prices on Christmas decorations, making it the perfect opportunity to stock up for next year.
Fred’s Tip: “It’s easy to forget about Christmas once the season is over and you’re back to work, but planning ahead for next year can mean massive savings.” - Workout Equipment
Time to work off that turkey and extra pigs-in-blankets? Well, January brings resolutions, and with it, fitness gear sales. Whether you need gym equipment, yoga mats, or athletic wear, the discounts are hard to beat. On top of that, you’re more likely to see monthly gyms offer special deals on memberships or classes.
Fred’s Tip: “Sign up to a gym if you can. For those who like to workout at home, choose versatile equipment like resistance bands or adjustable weights that fit multiple workouts, so you maximise those gains.” - Kitchen Appliances and Gadgets
This one’s for all the foodies out there. Kitchen appliances and gadgets like slow
cookers, blenders, and air fryers often go on sale in January as retailers aim to attract food-minded connoisseurs with New Year deals. If you’ve had kitchen improvements on your mind lately, January’s the time.
Fred’s Tip: “Look for multipurpose gadgets. For instance, a good-quality air fryer can cut your energy bills and speed up meal times, making it a double win.”
Fred Harrington, CEO of Coupon Mister comments:
“While the January sales are great for grabbing a bargain, they’re also about planning ahead. Invest in durable, practical items that you otherwise wouldn’t have the budget for during this time – you’ll be thanking yourself later down the line. Winter clothing,- decorations for next year, and furniture are brilliant examples of purchases that will continue paying off.
- “My advice is simple: make a list of what you need most and stick to it. Don’t get distracted by flashy sales that lead to those dangerous impulse buys. Instead, focus on value-driven items that fit into your lifestyle and budget. With a little planning, the savings you make in January can set a strong financial tone for the entire year.”
