Some clearance stock can be cheaper in store but the range on Argos's eBay outlet* makes it worth a look.
Most products it sells are new, and where items are refurbished, they're clearly noted.

There are always ways to save money at Argos*, so even if there isn't a cracking discount code or sale out there that works for you, don't assume you can't cut your costs further.
Ways to save money at Argos include:
- Free Check & Reserve. This allows you to save on delivery costs by reserving an item online and collecting it from an Argos store (find your nearest*). Of course, this will depend on your local store having your item in stock.
- Try haggling. We polled 1,400 MoneySavers to find out in which shops they had most success haggling, and 17% said they'd managed to blag a discount at Argos - so it's probably worth a try if you're brave enough. Read our Haggle on the High Street guide for more haggling tips.
- 'Free' Argos vouchers. Argos regularly does an offer where you can get a 'free' £5 voucher when you spend £50, or a £10 voucher when you spend £100, to use on your next Argos visit.
- Check out similar retailers, eg, Amazon and John Lewis. If you're not committed to buying from Argos, check out our deals from other places such as Amazon and John Lewis, where there may be a better offer.

Argos sale?
Last year, up to half-price home & Tu clothing, plus smaller reductions on tech & beauty
Website: Argos*
Find your nearest: Store locator*
Start date (online): Last year it started on Christmas Day – we predict it'll start on the same day this year.
Start date (in store): Last year it started on Boxing Day – we predict it'll start on the same day this year.
Sale strength: Last year it ran 'up to 50% off' home and Tu clothing. There were smaller reductions on tech, beauty and more. We'd expect to see discounts of up to 50% off this year.
Likely to boost? We haven't seen Argos increase the discount on its sale in previous years, so we wouldn't expect it to this year. However, Argos often price matches other retailers, so you could see items reduced further if a competitor has reduced its price. -
Board game deals round-up
Incl £13 Articulate (norm £30ish), and free virtual games
Board games are an integral Christmas Day activity for many, as well as a good idea for a gift with plenty of mileage, so we've rounded up the best deals on some of the most popular titles. Plus, given the current restrictions, we've suggested how you can adapt a few of the most popular games to play virtually.
The Government's guidance for staying safe over Christmas suggests avoiding playing board games with members of different households because of the risk of contamination, and only playing with members of your own household. So if physical board games are off the table for you, we've highlighted below whether or not you can adapt each game to be played over video call instead, and listed an app or online version, if this is available – though these may not be like-for-like to a physical copy. We've mentioned some virtual games and quizzes below, too.
Most popular and highest rated board games
We researched the best board games by scanning review listicles and best seller lists (see all our sources below), and collating some of the titles which appeared most often. The results cover both new and classic games, and varying levels of difficulty. For more about how to play each game, see our 'what's the gist?' table below.
