While it may seem strange to buy new decorations a year before putting them out on display, the Christmas sales offer a great opportunity to pick out high-quality, timeless pieces at a more affordable price. With the end of the year upon us, this is when our favorite home stores will be offering their left-over Christmas decor stock for less.

How can I save money on Christmas decorations?

Are prices lower before or after Christmas?

Prices at both homeware and clothing stores tend to be cheaper immediately after Christmas than before. The 26th of December typically marks the beginning of the end-of-year sale season, often featuring better deals than Black Friday on a wider range of goods, making it the best time of year to prepare for the year ahead.
