Feeling the squeeze? Currys’ price lock makes essential tech far more affordable

Let’s face it, we’re all feeling the pinch these days - and we’re not just talking about the cost of a tub of Lurpak butter.

Rising inflation and the war in Ukraine means things are much more expensive than usual these days. The cost of living crisis is real, folks.

While you may be tightening your financial belt wherever you can, there are ways to make your money work harder for you. When it comes to vital tech for the home, Currys’s trio of summer inflation busters has your back.

The retailer has revealed a number of ways it’s working hard to make sure you can afford the tech you need. It’s helping customers in all sorts of genius ways, from offering 12 month pay delays on selected items, to rewarding you for recycling your knackered old tech with money-off vouchers. Currys knows that now more than ever, shoppers are hungry for a great deal.

Another way it’s helping cash-strapped customers is by offering price lock deals on things like TVs, iPhones, computing and gaming, and household appliances like washing machines, dishwashers and fridge freezers - all with RRPs less than 2021’s lowest prices (yes, really!).

We’ve spotlighted some of these inflation-busting offers below to give you a peek into Currys’ price lock deals.
