Buy now or wait for January sales?

A laptop I’ve had my eye on has been reduced by £246. Seems a genuine offer. Want for my daughter whose birthday isn’t until March so should I wait for January sales in case I can get a better deal?

    It’s a gamble that no one can answer. 

    If it’s a great price and you can afford it then buy it now. It may drop in January, it may go up in price, it may be replaced by a newer model, it may be discontinued……
