The 19 Best End-of-Year Sales to Shop Before the Ball Drops

I don’t know about you, but the gift cards I received yesterday for Christmas are already burning a hole in my pocket. Thankfully, there are plenty of end-of-year sales to spend them on. Call them after-Christmas sales, call them Boxing Day markdowns, call them what you will. I’ll simply call them a great deal.

As a shopping trend analyst at Firstfinds, I’m constantly monitoring prices of trending products and brands, and I can confirm that you can find just as deep of discounts now as we did during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Not to bore you with an economics lecture, but retailers are currently expanding sale sections and offering deep markdowns and additional sale-on-sale promotions to end the year with as high sales numbers and as little inventory as possible. Put plainly, you can score some of the year’s best deals right now.

Below, you’ll find 19 ELLE editors and Firstfinds’ shopping experts’ picks for the best end-of-year sales of 2023.
