If I’m being entirely honest, I haven’t looked at my bank balance yet this year. After spending my way through Christmas and New Year’s like a madman, I’m frankly terrified to know how little money I have left to make it to the end of the month – let alone the end of the week. But in true Londoner fashion, I’m not about to let my money, or lack thereof, stop me from enjoying the city! As such, here are the best January deals, discounts, and freebies for you (and me) to take advantage of this month.
Let’s kick off 2026 with a bang – without decimating our wallets…
1. Free beer – for pull-ups
