The best Bank Holiday sales 2021
The Bank Holiday sales are just around the corner, which means it’s time to start preparing for your spring savings and Easter deals. Whether you’re looking to kit out the garden, fix up the house, or save on some top tech, we’ll be rounding up all the best Bank Holiday sales you should be shopping right here.
Many retailers have actually already begun their Easter sales, which will no doubt evolve into Bank Holiday offerings. That means you can already start scoping out some discounts and beat the crowds to the hottest offers. If you spot a deal you like, there’s no shame in diving straight in either, as there’s no guarantee these discounts will still be around come next weekend.
Keep this page bookmarked for the Bank Holiday sales themselves, because as soon as they hit we’ll be bringing you all the best discounts as soon as we find them. For now, though, we’re showing you all the retailers with sales live right now and a few others that regularly offer excellent discounts this time of year.
When will Easter Bank Holiday sales begin?
Good Friday falls on Friday April 2 this year, which means we expect the Easter Bank Holiday sales to begin around this time, if a little earlier. In recent years we’ve seen retailers launching their discounts ahead of the Bank Holiday weekend itself, and we’re even seeing some Easter sales live right now. That means we’d keep a close eye on your favourite retailers over the next week or so for first pick of this year’s deals.
Where to find the best Bank Holiday sales
We’re bringing you all the best Bank Holiday sales just below, listing all the retailers offering the highest value discounts this Easter. Whether you’re after a new laptop, some fresh threads, or a brand new garden set you’ll likely find a massive range of shops offering savings this Easter.
We expect the best Bank Holiday sales will come from larger retailers, with Currys, John Lewis, Very, and Amazon historically offering some excellent offers in the Spring sales. However, more specialist retailers have been bringing some strong discounts in the last few months so you’ll find plenty more offers available this year.
