Boxing Day 2024 PC gaming sales in Australia: save on laptops, monitors & more
You thought the bargain season was over? Think again.
If Black Friday and Cyber Monday are for picking up Christmas gifts on the cheap, Boxing Day is for pouring all your loose change into purchases that you want. Or, both are for that—either way, Boxing Day is now here and that means retailers are keen to get rid of a whole bunch of inventory they've stocked up for the holiday rush.
Boxing Day sales in Australia have generally resulted in evening news bulletins showing a crush of people lining up at the major retail outlets. But with the power of the internet, there's no need to go out there. All the deals we've collected are online, though if we hear about a particularly noteworthy (and widely available) in-store deal, we'll make note of it here too.
Is Boxing Day likely to rival Black Friday 2024 in the deals department? Honestly, nowadays it's pretty unlikely: Black Friday has well-and-truly eclipsed all other sales affairs in Australia, even EOFY. While there may not be as many deals, that's not to say they won't be cheaper.
Whatever the case, come Boxing Day we'll be compiling every worthwhile PC gaming deal we can find right here. We may also add a few pre-Boxing Day deals, if anything noteworthy pops up.

When do Boxing Day sales start in 2024?
Boxing Day always lands on December 26: the day after Christmas. Australians, frustrated by the lack of shopping options on December 25, are invited to release all of their pent up consumerist energy on December 26, thanks to most major retailers (and many smaller ones) hosting big sales events on this day.
More accurately: Boxing Day is a great way for retailers to get rid of all the stock they may have overstocked for the Christmas season. That's why it's well-worth keeping an eye out for good bargains.
