Aside from the national obsessions of football and Love Island, there’s one thing that unites Brits above all else. Barbecue season.
Sure there’s still a while to go until we can unearth our machines from the back of the shed or garage, but that doesn’t stop us dreaming of the feasts to come.
From platters piled high with juicy sausages, serving dishes heaped with melt-in-your-mouth beef brisket and a buffet of perfectly smoked, chargrilled sides, we have never been more ready for summer 2023.
The first step to this magnificent feast starts with a proper BBQ. Not those disposable ones - not only do they wreak havoc environmentally speaking but they fail to infuse that delicious smoky flavour that we need on our grilled morsels. If you’re going to do it right, you’ll need a real beast.
They’re not exactly the cheapest thing to buy, which is why the clever shopper waits until the big sales to pounce. And as luck would have it, we’re within sniffing distance of the next big one.
What is Amazon’s Spring Sale?
Exactly what it says on the tin - a big sale, held by Amazon, coming this spring.
When is Amazon’s Spring Sale?
The Spring Sale will run from March 27 until March 29, ending just before midnight.
What is the difference between the Amazon Spring Sale and Amazon’s Prime Day?
While Amazon Prime Day is the internet giant’s flagship sale and for its Prime members only, the Spring Sale is a more inclusive affair. Everyone’s invited to this one, and with discounts of up to 40 per cent off it’s the perfect chance to skim a few pounds off those big ticket items.
That said, getting membership is still well worth it. Prime Day is likely to be held in July, and if you haven’t signed up - you’ll want to be. In previous years we’ve spotted discounts of up to 90 per cent across everything from beauty, electricals, tech and more.
Prime membership not only lets you snap up incredible bargains, but you’ll have access to Amazon’s behemoth of services, from Prime Video to Amazon Music, Amazon Gaming and priority grocery services. It costs £8.99 a month; or £95 annually, while Amazon Student membership fees come in at: £4.49 per month; £47.49 per year.
What kind of deals can we expect in the Spring Sale?
Some of the hottest deals around are on grills and smokers, which makes sense - who isn’t having a BBQ every summer weekend? Past sales have seen the RRP drop on everything from charcoal BBQs to gas-powered beasts as well as smaller models for those with a more modest outdoor space.
Are there any discounts available now?
While we wait for Amazon to confirm the sale dates, there are plenty of bargains to snap up now. See the best below
