Best Last-Minute Christmas Deals UK 2025

As Christmas inches closer, many of us realise we still have a few presents to buy or perhaps we’re treating ourselves before the New Year. The good news: even if you’ve missed some early-bird sales, several top UK retailers are still offering solid last-minute discounts.

From tech gadgets to beauty treats and fashion picks, here’s a roundup of what you can still grab from Currys, Argos, Boots, Amazon and ASOS  just in time for Christmas 2025.

Currys

Currys remains one of the go-to spots for tech gifts and home appliances even this late in the season. Their Christmas shop section still features “top tech gifts for Christmas 2025,” including kitchen gadgets, smart-home devices, beauty gadgets, TVs and more.

  • Expect discounts or voucher-code offers (for example: reduced prices on laptops, washing machines, accessories). 
  • Currys’ sale tends to focus on electronics, homeware, and other substantial gifts — ideal if you’re planning a bigger purchase.

Tip: If you’re buying something larger (like a kitchen appliance, laptop or TV), Currys is worth a final look before checkout: their seasonal deals often cover such items.

Argos

Argos is a classic for last-minute gift buying: toys, small electronics, home goods, and more. In 2025, many of their Black Friday / post-Black Friday sales are reported as still live. 

  • Deals of “up to 50% off” on tech, toys and appliances have been listed. 
  • Because Argos tends to stock a wide variety of products, it’s a good place to check if you need a mix, from stocking fillers and home gadgets to kids’ gifts or practical items.
  • Their TOP 100 deals section is perfect for last minute shoppers

Tip: If you’re after affordable gifts or need things fast, Argos is often a safe bet, especially when shipping or click-and-collect works close to Christmas.

Boots

Boots is a strong choice if you’re looking for beauty, grooming, wellness or self-care themed gifts. In 2025, Boots featured in roundups of standout sales for Black Friday / Christmas gifting.

  • Expect deals on fragrances, beauty sets, self-care gifts or grooming essentials, ideal for stocking fillers or gifts for family/friends. 
  • This makes Boots a go-to option if you want to pick up small, thoughtful gifts without breaking the bank.
  • Weekly star gifts and Christmas offers are available on the boots site

Tip: Look out for gift-set bundles or discounted beauty / wellness products they tend to be popular around this time and often offer good value.

Amazon

Amazon is pretty much the evergreen option for last-minute buying and in 2025 it’s no different. Their “Last Minute Deals” page is live even now. 

  • You’ll find bargains across a wide range: tech gadgets, books, home goods, beauty, toys, and more. The breadth of products makes it easy to find something even with limited time. 
  • Amazon often offers competitive discounts on electronics, everyday essentials, and small gift-friendly items, making it ideal for last-minute shoppers.

Tip: Because Amazon’s range is so huge, it’s perfect for “emergency” gifts or when you don’t exactly know what you want to buy yet.

ASOS

If you’re after fashion, accessories, or trendy gifts, ASOS remains a solid option  and 2025’s extended sales appear to include ASOS. 

  • ASOS deals are likely around clothing, accessories or seasonal outfits  useful for gifting clothes or style-based presents. 
  • For friends or family who appreciate fashion, a last-minute check on ASOS might land a great gift at a discount.
  • Asos are offering free next day delivery and 15% off for your first order with code: NEWHERE
  • 20% off with code HEYAPP when you download the asos app

Tip: If you’re unsure what to get (or want a gift that’s easy to wrap) fashion items from ASOS are a safe bet.

Final Thoughts & Tips for Last-Minute Shoppers

  • Act quickly: Stock and shipping times get tighter closer to Christmas — especially for popular items.
  • Compare prices: Use consumer-oriented sources and price trackers; not all “sale” labels are genuinely cheaper than month-earlier prices.
  • Mix up retailers: Use tech-focused retailers (like Currys and Argos) for big or practical gifts; Amazon for convenience; and Boots / ASOS for smaller, thoughtful or fashion-based gifts.
  • Watch delivery cut-offs: With the calendar ticking down, things like click-and-collect or fast shipping may make the difference between a gift arriving on time or not.

Christmas shopping doesn’t have to be a mad dash! Even if you’re starting late, 2025 still offers a healthy crop of last-minute deals across major UK retailers. Whether you’re after tech gadgets, beauty treats, cozy fashion or practical gifts, retailers like Currys, Argos, Boots, Amazon and ASOS have got you covered. It’s all about being smart, comparing prices, and acting before the snowflakes (and delivery slots) run out.

Happy bargain hunting, and may your Christmas gifts be as joyful as the festive season itself!
