This is it — end of financial year is here, which means today is your last chance to bag a bargain before a new financial year begins! The official sales period kicked off on June 1, and will run all the way til 11:59pm (AEST) tonight (June 30, 2023). We've seen a wide variety of discounted items, with huge reductions on a range of products — many of which can be considered tax deductible (so long as you buy them before the new Australian financial year starts on July 1).
As always, retailers are looking to clear out all remaining stock from the last financial year before that date. That means you'll find drastic price reductions across a wide variety of products right up until the start of July.
In other words, now's probably the time splurge on that device you've had your eye on. Looking to upgrade your TV? Need a new vacuum? Or maybe you're in the market for a new pair of noise cancelling headphones — whatever you're after, the EOFY sales period is the best time to buy it.
We're talking huge discounts on everything from books and games, to big-ticket items like laptops, cameras and even fridges. Simply put, there's no better price than clearance price.
Of course, with so many Aussie retailers holding EOFY sales, finding the biggest discounts isn't always easy. Luckily, this ain't our first rodeo, so we'll be on-hand to bring attention to the best deals as we find them.

EOFY sales 2023: What is it and when does it take place?
In Australia, the end of financial year is June 30. Once the calendar has changed to July 1, a new financial year will have started, and individuals and business will have until October 30 to file their tax returns for the previous financial year with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
So where do the EOFY sales fit within all this? Good question — in the lead up to EOFY, Australia's retailers will try and move as much of the previous year's remaining stock as possible, which is why so many perfectly good items are marked down to near-clearance prices.
That not only gives Aussie consumers the chance to save big on products they've had their eye on, it also gives them one more opportunity to buy tax-deductible items for work before the financial year is up.
Typically, Australia’s EOFY sales kick off on or around June 1 and run until the end of the month on June 30. That said, some retailers will have been known to start their EOFY sales earlier by slashing their prices from the end of May. Still, it's our opinion that the best EOFY deals usually arrive in June, so don't be afraid to wait a little for a better deal to come along.

That means price reductions on laptops and computers, headphones, gaming consoles and peripherals, TVs, smartphones and tablets, small and large appliances, cameras, beauty products, smart home devices and much more.
Obviously, every retailer is different. That said, we've come to expect discounts as big as 50% off on larger items during EOFY sales, and up to 70% on smaller ones like books and games.
