Argos Big Red Event Sale: Up to 50% off
The huge sale from the high street chain comes as rival retailer Amazon wraps up its October Prime Day event today.
The Argos Big Red Event deals feature savings up to 30% using selected discount codes at checkout online.

My favourite deals in the Argos Big Red Event
As a shopping editor, I see plenty of deals and sale alerts in my inbox daily.
I have trawled through the Argos website and picked out some deals that are truly worth snapping up if you can’t wait until Black Friday next month.
Shark Lift-Away Anti Hair Wrap Corded Pet Vacuum Cleaner
Shark Lift-Away Anti Hair Wrap Corded Pet Vacuum Cleaner, £210 with code RED30 (was £300)
What’s the deal? Save 30% off the popular Shark Lift-Away Anti Hair Wrap Corded Pet Vacuum Cleaner, a favourite of OG cleanifluencer Mrs Hinch.
Why it’s a great buy: If you have kids or pets, this cleaner is a workhorse; it’s so good we featured it in our best vacuum cleaner roundup.
The clever lift-away design makes it easy to navigate awkward spaces or stairs, while the anti-hair wrap technology is a game-changer for removing hair from the brush roll.
Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer AF500UK 10.4L Air Fryer
Ninja Foodi FlexDrawer AF500UK 10.4L Air Fryer, 188.99 with code RED30 (was 269.99)
What’s the deal? This is a solid discount on one of Ninja’s popular air fryer models that I think is worth the investment.
Why it’s a great buy: The FlexDrawer design is functional and efficient for prepping food, and the roomy drawers are fully customisable.
The air fryer cooking modes are fully adaptable based on the food you are making and how many people you are serving. It’s a no-brainer kitchen appliance for all that stressful Christmas dinner prep.
Dormeo Octasmart Hybrid Plus Mattress
Dormeo Octasmart Hybrid Plus Mattress, £454.29 with code RED30
(was £649 for a double)
What’s the deal? Trade in your lumpy old mattress for the Dormeo Octasmart one and save a hefty £194.71 in the sale.
Why it’s a great buy: The unique design gives you all the pressure-relieving support you need and moulds to your body for ultimate support.
It’s also eight times more breathable than a regular mattress. But make sure you compare this against other options featured in our best mattress deals page.
Remington S5901 Coconut Smooth Hair Straightener – Pink
Remington S5901 Coconut Smooth Hair Straightener, £19.99 with code RED20 (was £24.99)
What’s the deal? I have a feeling this deal will fly off the shelves. You can save 20% off the Remington hair straighteners in the event to snap them up for less than £20.
Why it’s a great buy: Our fashion and beauty writer raves about the Remington straighteners, which, although affordable, do not skimp on giving you a quality finish.
This model comes with nine temperature settings and an optimum temp control function to limit heat damage.
Shokz OpenRun Pro 2
Shokz OpenRun Pro 2, 135.20 with code RED20 (was £169)
What’s the deal? The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 have a 20% discount at Argos right now, and I think they would make a great Christmas gift for a loved one.
Why it’s a great buy: Our tech writer tested the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 and gave the headphones a glowing review.
The lightweight design provides impressive audio quality and is comfortable enough to be worn during a run or at the gym, which is why our tech writer featured them in his pick of the best wireless headphones for running.
Does Argos do Black Friday sales?
Yes, Argos is well known for its Black Friday sale.
The retailer often launches deals to rival other major players like Amazon and John Lewis, with price-matched offers to entice shoppers.
Over the past few years, Argos has chosen to launch deals in early November rather than wait until the official date.
We’re expecting the retailer to follow a similar pattern this year, offering budget-conscious shoppers the opportunity to save on everything from smart TVs to vacuum cleaners.
Does Argos do January sales?
Absolutely! Argos kicks off January with a bang, giving bargain hunters the entire month to snap up some stellar deals.
The January sales don’t wrap up until 31 January, giving you plenty of time to splurge on discounted goodies for yourself.
The January 2025 sale was particularly impressive, with Argos slashing prices by a whopping 66% on selected electronics and home appliances.
One standout deal saw the Remington Shea Soft Hair Dryer plummet from £50 to just £17 – an incredible 66% saving that had beauty fans rushing to get their hands on one.
All these bargains were available both in-store and online, with standard delivery starting at just £3.95 and same-day options available for those who couldn’t wait.
