What was the best bargain you've bagged this year?
When the mobile data plans got changed I now have 16GB for the same price as I paid for 12. Plus I have discount because I'm in a group. A great bargain when you make a group
What was the best bargain you've bagged this year?
That’s a great question. I love finding good deals and saving money.

One of the best bargain I've bagged this year was a LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon set that I bought online for £100. It was originally priced at £149.99, so I saved £49.99 or 33% off the regular price.
I was very happy with my purchase because I’m a big fan of Star Wars and LEGO, and this set is one of the most iconic and detailed models in the LEGO Star Wars collection. It has over 1300 pieces and features many authentic details, such as rotation top and bottom gun turrets, a cockpit that opens, a boarding ramp and six minifigures. It was alot of fun to build and display .
1. 25gb for £8 at Smarty; but sadly no longer offered.
2. This year has only just started. Bargain flights to Mallorca.
3. Don’t waste too much time saving pennies, life is too short.- What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?
Use a price-tracker app or website to track the prices of the items you want to buy, then buy them when they get cheaper or there's a special offer. Prices on sites like Amazon often fluctuate at different times of day - things can get cheaper late at night or early in the morning. Use a voucher app like "Honey" that will automatically try different voucher codes for you, and you get reward points for using it, this can save a lot of money over time.
My best bargain I have ever found was Smarty sim, low price but great value.
Best bargain: 60p for a tick remover for my dog and cats. Works a treat 🙂
My best bargain was the group discount from smarty mobile
What's your number one tip for getting a bargain.
There are many tips and tricks for getting a bargain, but if I had to choose one, I would say research the price in advance. Knowing the market value of an item can help you negotiate confidently and avoid overpaying. You can also check online reviews and ratings to see if the quality matches the price.
If you are shopping in a local market or a place where haggling is common, you can also use some other strategies to get a better deal, such as:
get a better deal, such as:
- Making a low but reasonable starting offer and working up your way up to meet the seller.
- Having cash in hand and showing it to the seller as a sign of commitment.
- Not getting attached to an item and willing to walk you away if the price is too high.
- Being polite and respectful with the seller, and complimenting their products. I hope the above tips helps you find some great bargains.
The group discounts are insane
- What was the best bargain I've ever found?
Hmmm, let me think..
Ok, yes... Well whilst using my Smarty 60GB Data and Call Sim Card for just £10 per month, I once found whilst surfing online a pack of sausages being offered at a local store a few miles away on a buy 2 get 1 free deal!
I'm not daft and know when there's a bargain to be had so I immediately got dressed and called a taxi and bought 2 packs... I was chuffed I got 1 more absolutely FREE!
