High-street store Next has provided an update on its online sale start time and when to expect discounts in stores.
It's not uncommon to see shoppers queuing up as early as 4am outside Next stores for the huge Boxing Day sale, but that will not be the case in 2021.
This year Boxing Day falls on a Sunday and Next has confirmed all its branches across in England, Wales and Northern Ireland will be closed on December 26.

Instead, customers can access sale items from as early as Christmas Eve online with massive discounts going live on the website on Friday, December 24.
But what time does the online sale start and when will items be discounted in stores? Here's everything you need to know.
When does the Next sale start online?
The sale starts online on Christmas Eve, which this year falls on Friday, December 24.
It will kick off at 3pm on the Next website, although some customers, who were signed up for a Nextpay credit account by December 15, have had early access to the bargains.
On its website Next is advertising at least 50% off all sale items.
When does the Next in-store sale start?
As branches are closed across England, Wales and Northern Ireland on Boxing Day, in-store sales will instead start on Monday, December 27.
A Next spokesperson told WalesOnline: "Our Sale starts online on Friday December 24th and our in-store sales starts on Monday December 27th at 6am, in the majority of our UK stores."
Next has 510 stores in the UK and Ireland, you can locate your nearest one and find out its opening hours by using its store locator tool online.
