I don't know about you but I always save up my money, return the things I don't like and ask for gift cards every Christmas just so I can shop the after Christmas sales. And now it appears that I am not unique in this way for thinking and retailers have begun to really stand up and take notice.

According to DealNews.com, after-Christmas sales should break a few records of their own.  The website says this trend has shown up in its data for several years now. Last year Amazon kicked off its post-Christmas sales Dec. 23 These are the catagories they say you can expect the biggest discounts:

  • Clothing: 45 percent of post-Christmas sales will be for clothing. The Gap, Express, Macy’s, Banana Republic and New York & Co. are among the retailers expected to offer great after-Christmas sales.
  • Electronics. Black Friday is usually the ultimate time to score bargains on gadgets, but this year, some TVs and laptops will be even cheaper the in year end sales than they were on Black Friday.
