The streets are lined with festive decorations, and the spirit of the holidays is in the air. But so are the jingles on repeat in malls, and there’s one sure way of getting your year-end shopping done without worry about the hassle, with Lazada’s 12.12 All Out Year-End Sale.
Yes, online shopping will carry us into the New Year, but if you do some planning, you’ll realise that shopping on 12 December is probably the last chance to get the best deals, and still have gifts delivered in time for your Christmas gatherings and parties.
Lazada is giving everyone a headstart to start collecting their vouchers from 6 December 2022 onwards, so mark your calendars. With Lazada Bonus, shoppers will enjoy S$4 off S$40, or S$12 off S$200 on selected items when the 3-day sale kicks in from 12 December – 14 December.
Featuring top brands including Nike, LEGO, Dyson, Sulwhasoo, Lancome and more, this year-end event is the best time to shop, and take advantage of Lazada’s Everyday Cashback, that offers up to 12% rebates across all purchases, so why not save some money as a reward for buying gifts for friends and family? Just remember to collect the Everyday Cashback vouchers on the app, and watch those savings come rolling in.
Lazada is also a choice for brands to launch new products, at attractive prices. For example, LEGO just announced the new Eiffel Tower set, and it will be available at a special price come 12.12.
If you’ve been a dedicated and loyal customer with Lazada since 11.11, be sure to persist in collecting Heartgrams that gets you into their lucky draw, which could eventually land you a Tesla Model 3 as the grand prize. Shoppers can collect Heartgrams by completing missions in the app, which involve shopping for items and browsing deals to gain more opportunities to enter the draw. This special campaign lasts all the way to New Year’s Eve (31 December) so pace yourself, and complete all those daily missions.
Rounding up the campaign, we have the staples from Lazada which we’ve come to love in the form of their Storewide Flash Sales, Bi-hourly Flash Sales and Surprise Boxes. This time round, Lazada is also introducing a new Shop and Win mechanic where the top 12 buyers during the 12 – 14 December sale stand to win attractive prizes. Pro-tip: if you have office gift exchanges, or need to buy toys for your family or neighbours, those Surprise Boxes, where brands offer several items at one low price, are your best bets, as each box contains several items that you can easily pack individually or as gifts for several people.
There’s plenty to dissect so scroll on down to check out all the various promotions that Lazada has in store for 12.12 and we’ll help you snag some great deals!

Looking to cosplay for the next convention but want to keep your skin clear? Plenty of makeup brands like Estee Lauder, Clinique, Lancome, and M.A.C will be part of the pre-sale period.

The idea behind the pre-sale would be helpful for shoppers who might not have the time to check out once the sale starts at midnight, but still want to score the deals. This is a good way to lock in deal prices and ensure there’s sufficient stock allocated for you. As we are cutting it close to Christmas, do make sure that ample time is given for the products to be shipped out as well!
Lazada Bonus (6 – 14 December)
If you’re a veteran on the platform, you’d know that the work starts before 12.12. And if you’re everyone else, mark 6 December down to start collecting vouchers to claim your Lazada Bonus. With two vouchers available – S$4 off S$40 and S$12 off S$200 – be sure to look out for qualifying products on the Lazada app.
Pro-tip: Look out for the ‘Lazada Bonus’ badge in order to make use of these vouchers.
The idea behind collecting all Lazada Bonuses all day would help you defray the eventual cost. Try to collect as much from 6 – 14 December daily in order to claim the maximum bonus! Once the sale hits on 12.12, all shoppers need to do would be to check out and the maximum amount of Lazada Bonus will automatically be tabulated and applied to the cart!
Shop and Win (12 – 14 December)
Patience has paid off and it looks like Lazada is looking to reward their best customers who spend their entire Christmas budget in one place. Lazada is hunting for the top 12 buyers who have made the highest number of orders by quantity during the sale, to win awesome prizes.
With that in mind, maybe gathering all your family members together and compiling as many Christmas shopping and grocery lists would be a viable strategy. For your efforts, here’s a peek at the various products you stand to win –
Focusing all your efforts on 14 December would make sense if you’re looking to get hold of the Ninja Nutri-Blender Pro to help cleanse the body after the Christmas feasting.
Or perhaps a Samsung HW-B450 soundbar might be more up one’s alley to complete the living room after scoring a new TV after Cyber Monday!
Do take note that each day from 12 – 14 December there will be a total of twelve prizes per day for the taking worth up to S$6,200.
Has there been a better time to spend? There isn’t a better opportunity than now.

Here’s a little sneak peek of some of the items you can expect for the 12.12 Flash Sales…
Surprise Boxes (From midnight of 12 December)
We all love a good gacha (Japanese for toy capsule machine) so why not a Surprise Box of items from one brand, at a special price? Shoppers know the brands, and can possibly figure out what some of the items in each box are, but the surprise is only fully revealed when you receive each Surprise Box of items. Featuring a variety of over 200 surprise boxes, we are expecting brands like Bobbi Brown, Shiseido, L’Oreal Paris, Philips Personal Care, Hasbro, mothercare, Unilever Ice Cream, and Pristine to give us plenty of exciting deals.
With so many boxes on offer, there’s bound to be one for every single person on your shopping list!
Lazada kicks off the first round on 12 December of surprise boxes from 12 – 8 am, then every two hours from 8 am to 11:59 pm. For the next two days on 13 and 14 December, Surprise Boxes drop every two hours starting from 12pm and ending at 6pm. The surprise boxes come in four tiers that increase in price as you go up the tier. The first tier is a S$12 surprise box that contains S$50 worth of products, while the second is a S$29 surprise box worth S$100, followed by a S$49 box worth S$150, and finally a S$79 box worth S$200.
These boxes are great for that office Secret Santa and with a wide variety of prices it would be able to pretty much suit any budget.
