Best Bargain Ever Found: My most unforgettable bargain was snagging a state-of-the-art laptop, originally worth £1200, for just £300. It was a display model at a closing-down sale of a tech store. This laptop has powered through my work and gaming needs without a hitch, making it not just a financial steal but also a reliable companion.
Best Bargain This Year: Recently, I chanced upon a subscription deal for a leading streaming service. By combining a special introductory offer with a student discount, my yearly entertainment is now sorted for just £15, a fraction of the usual £120. This deal perfectly blends my love for movies and savvy saving.
Number One Tip for Getting a Bargain: My top tip: Leverage price tracking tools online. These tools alert you when your desired products hit their lowest prices. Combine this with cashback offers and discount codes for a double win. Remember, the smartest bargains are about timing, research, and sometimes, a bit of patience.
The best bargain I’ve ever come across, was a £37 flight to Madeira in 2022, was one of the best holidays I’ve ever been on.
What was the best bargain you've ever found? I used an online price-tracking tool to monitor the price of a phone and I made the purchase when the price was lower.
What was the best bargain you've bagged this year? I used a benefits website and I got a brochure for sunglasses with a big discount.
What is your number one tip for getting a bargain? To wait for sales periods like Black Friday or January sales. During these holidays I can find special deals. I also wait for end-of-season sales, and I can save money by waiting for these opportunities.
I got a reduced price pack of 2 Finest Scotch Eggs at Tesco, and it wasn't even near its best before date or nothing!
Should have been £3.50 I got it for 14pence. That's 96% off!What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?
Check around, if it's something you're after track the lowest price so you can see when it's a peak price to buy. And watch for special sales like Black Friday, a lot of places slowly put prices up before it then lower the price for the sale but it works out it's not as good a deal as it actually looks
My best bargain is the unlimited data bundle of £20, it gives me the best value for money. It allows me to surf the web with no limit and watch my favourite videos on my platform.
My number one tip is my flexibility which I enjoy, Smarty gives myle that in full dose.
What was the best bargain you've ever found?
- £8 for 32GB data, unlimited mins and texts

Getting free rudys pizza meal out during the opening days of a new resteraunt near me in Leeds. I went with 4 friends and we all got free pizza on their opening night
What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?
-Shop around (compare the price online for different stores), dont be afraid to wait for a prize reduction, google for discount codes available, look online second hand on facebook marketplace/ebay and sign up for discount emails with offers like hot uk deals or Money saving expert tips
I got a block of cheese for £1.04 last week. It had been £6. Nice with crackers, any type.
“You’re only as good as your last cheese bargain.” No one says. Although I just did.
