Tip for a bargain for your sought after item when ordering online, don’t make an impulsive immediate purchase straight away, leave in basket for a while and maybe vendor will offer a discount to entice & tempt you to buy it.
- What was the best bargain you've ever found? A copy of a letter by Robert Burns for £25 that turned out to be a genuine manuscript worth thousands.
- What was the best bargain you've bagged this year? A Bose sound system sold as spares or repairs for £10 which only needed a new fuse in plug!
- What is your number one tip for getting a bargain? Research the stuff you like so you know and recognise names / logos. Always keep an eye out for these online or at flea markets and car boot sales.
Bargain that I doubled my data on Blackfriday
The best bargain is I got a 50pounds off on a 209pounds product.
What was the best bargain you've ever found?
I once found a Ragged Priest zip-up hoodie in a charity shop for £5. It looked brand new and considering their T-shirts are like ~£30, it was the best bargain ever.
The best bargain I found was UNLIMITED DATA, CALLS and TEXT for just £18 a month. How could u pass that up. Even made me switch to SMARTY.
I think good offer was 50GB for £10 last year
This year got my pops to change network and as a group plan I get 100GB for 10,80 plus soon I going to put my mother on it.
Big tip is shopping around it’s a must
Bargain that I doubled my data on Blackfriday And best part is thing ses not for new joiner. If you already customer still you were able to have a chance to do it.
thanks smarty
Best bargain I've ever found - My laptop was a bargain tbf. It was a bit expensive at first but I randomly checked the website and it was on a big sale so I had to get it.
Best bargain this year - Only 2 weeks into this year however I managed to get an air fryer which was big and cheap
Tip for bargain- keep looking every day on multiple websites and have notifications on for the websites .
1. The best bargain I ever found was a Ukulele for £12. This was before I knew what they were and I couldn't believe that there was a miniature 4 string guitar that I could carry around so easily. I loved that little guy, I named him Brian after my best friends dog.
2. Best bargain of the year was some Vivobarefoot boots I found in my local charity shop for £15. Almost new and costing around 10% of what they would normally.
3. Tips for finding bargains:
Spend time researching the things you need.
Spend less time looking at the things you want.
Buy as much as you can secondhand.
Don't buy anything that has only just been released; you don't know how good something is until you get the reviews from people who have had it for a year: tech, clothes, sports gear anything. And by then it will be half the price.
