Top Birthday Presents Under £20 In The January Sales

We all love spoiling our friends, families, boyfriends and girlfriends on their birthdays, but it can get expensive keeping up with them all. Savvy shoppers utilise the January sales not just for next year's Christmas wrapping paper, but also for birthday presents they can stash away for later in the year.

Most retailers have fantastic price drops and reductions in January, so there's no need to compromise on what you're gifting. Whether you're looking for clothing, toys, books or perfume, you can hunt the January sales and often find exactly what you're looking for with some kind of offer on.

I've put together a list of some great gift ideas that are ideal for buying now while they're on sale, putting away, and pulling out when it's someone special's birthday.

It's also worth looking at the tag pages on Latest Deals. If you're buying for someone in particular, you can search for deals from their favourite brands. So, if you're shopping for your husband and he's a fan of The North Face, for example, or your mum loves Argos bargains, have a look at their pages.

The January sales are a great time to buy from tops brands, including Jack Wills, Superdry, adidas and more. It's also a good idea to look to department stores such as Very and House of Fraser for inspiration. ,

When you've got a lot of friends it can be tricky finding presents that fit your budget - it can get very pricey, very quickly. Shopping in January is a good answer to this, and finding small but nice gifts such as luxe chocolates in the Hotel Chocolat sale, or a book they've been wanting from WH Smith or The Works are the way to go!
