The final bank holiday of the summer is just around the corner – it’s on 30 August, in case you didn’t know – and to celebrate, Currys is launching a series of impressive deals across home appliances, tech and more.
Whether you’re in the market for a new fridge freezer, TV, vacuum cleaner or set of wireless headphones, the retailer’s early sale is packed with discounts you won’t want to miss.
Prices have been cut on hundreds of products, spanning everything from laptops to air fryers, giving us all the chance to upgrade our gadget collection and bag a serious bargain at the same time.
There are plenty of big-name brands up for grabs too – we’re talking the likes of Samsung, Shark, Tefal and Ring.
You can even get your hands on some tidy savings on Apple, which rarely takes part in sale events, so if you’ve been thinking of investing in a new Macbook air (was £999, now £893, Currys.co.uk), now is the time.
