Boxing Day always feels like chaos wrapped in a discount sticker, so today we’re breaking it all down with Katie from enable.me. We’re looking at what’s actually a deal, what’s just good marketing, and how to avoid that horrible post-shopping regret.

Katie takes us through the big mistakes people make on Boxing Day, from getting swept up in the adrenaline to falling for ticking clocks and “limited stock” banners. We talk about sticking to the money you actually have, buying based on need not want, and why researching a purchase can save you from yourself.

If you’re heading into the sales or trying to talk yourself out of them, this is a good one to have in your ears.
