How to get a bargain
SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a discounted item and bag a bargain…
Sign up for the loyalty programs of the brands you regularly shop with.
Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other benefits.
During the sale you can pick up a bargain.
Retailers often have periodic promotions that tie in with end-of-month paychecks or long weekends, so keep an eye out for these offers and shop while they’re valid.
Sign up for mailing lists and you’ll be the first to know about special offers. It can also be worth following retailers on social media.
When shopping online, always look for discount codes or vouchers that you can use vouchercodes.co.uk And myvouchercodes.co.uk are only two sites that collect promotions per retailer.
It’s useful to have scanner apps on your phone. Trolley.co.uk app has a scanner that allows you to compare prices of branded items while shopping.
Bargain hunters can also use B&M’s in-app scanner to search for discounts in-store before staff have put them out.
Always check if you are entitled to cashback before you pay. This means that you will get part of your money back or a discount on the item.
Facebook users were stunned when they saw Shannon’s huge haul, with many taking to the comments to praise her finds and the amazing deal.
Someone said, “Wow, that’s the best lot I’ve ever seen.”
Another added: “This is the best bundle I’ve seen for this deal.
“Our local store unfortunately had a lot of junk left. Well done on your bargains.”
A third commented: “I have to go.”
While someone else wrote: “I’ll definitely have to check tomorrow – I got the email with the barcode!”
