Question 1

What is the best time of year to visit Oxford Street for sales without the biggest crowds?

Accepted Answer

Visit Oxford Street in the first two weeks of January for peak post-holiday sales with relatively lighter crowds. Avoid the last week before Christmas. The August bank holiday weekend also offers deals with fewer shoppers, as many locals travel. Peak hours are 12-4 PM - arrive early for a calmer experience.
