I honestly can't think of what my best bargain ever would be, but my latest this year is a ยฃ10 trial bottle of Trip CBD oil that I've been wanting to try for ages. I ordered it yesterday and it arrived today, so super speedy too!
Advice would be have patience, do your research and be realistice about your needs. I got my son a fitness tracker/smart watch for Christmas and it was ยฃ40 and it does everything he needs it to. I could have been fooled into believing I needed to spend more on one that had more features, when in reality he wouldn't use the additional features so it wouldn't have been worth the extra money. Sometimes the bargain isn't something that's usually expensive and reduced in price, it can be something that is already great value but overshadowed by the more expensive version that is heavily marketed to make sales.

The best bargain I gotten was the 50GB for ยฃ8!! Definitely was worth it going to this provider instead of my old one, even better getting 5G!!
โ12-01-2024 16:44 PM
My best bargain is a pair of purple Hunter wellies. I'm a size 5 so managed to get a junior size for ยฃ9!
My best bargain this year was to win an Instagram competition. I received a voucher and found a half price coat in the January sales
My number 1 tip to grab a bargain is to go to Tkmaxx on a Thursday when the new stock arrives. SSH!. Don't tell everyone!
โ12-01-2024 16:44 PM
What was the best bargain you've ever found?
Without a doubt, the winter deal which offers 125GB, unlimited calls and messages for ยฃ12.
What was the best bargain you've bagged this year?
I would probably say the referral, where you refer a friend using your link and you both receive ยฃ10 gift card.
What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?
Word of mouth asking your friends helps a lot of good deals or even searching on Google helps a lot.
โ12-01-2024 16:44 PM
Good
โ12-01-2024 16:44 PM
Thanks for the deal.
โ12-01-2024 16:44 PM
Best bargain- back in 2014 I found the entire โHouse MDโ DVD collection for ยฃ5 in my local charity shop.
โ12-01-2024 16:43 PM
I god a load of firewood delivered today for free
โ12-01-2024 16:43 PM
The best bargain I've ever found was a designer handbag at a charity shop for only ยฃ20. It was in impeccable condition and a rare gem among the donated items.
In 2023, my best bargain was a last-minute holiday deal to a luxurious resort. I saved over 50% on the original price by booking during a flash sale.
My number one tip for getting a bargain is to stay informed and patient. Sign up for newsletters, follow your favorite brands on social media, and be ready to pounce on deals during sales events. Additionally, don't be afraid to negotiate or inquire about discounts โ sometimes a simple ask can lead to surprising savings.
โ12-01-2024 16:43 PM
What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?
Research and compare every single option out there!
โ12-01-2024 16:43 PM

Best deal offer i have
โ12-01-2024 16:42 PM
My Best Bargain by far is the ยฃ20 for unlimited data and comes down by ยฃ2 to ยฃ18 if youโre in a group plan, to me this is a steal. Not to mention I get signal everywhere pretty much.
Bargain is an understatement especially when I used to pay O2 nearly triple what I pay now to have poor coverage from them anyway.

Very good deal. Best.
โ12-01-2024 16:41 PM
What was the best bargain youโve ever bagged?
- The NHS, because no matter how much we moan about taxes and NI, or waiting for X-rays and operations we will never fully appreciate leaving the hospital without a bill.
What was the best bargain youโve bagged this year?
- Itโs still only January, but the best deal I bagged was in Costco on toilet paper. I sat down (on a chair) and worked out how much loo roll I could get in bulk thatโll last me all year. I took into consideration any multi buy deals, the length of roll to find the price per sheet (because whoโs counting?). Having then spent ยฃ122 Iโve got enough for the whole village.
What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?
- Shop around, take your pen and paper and sit down and work out what is the absolute best deal for you. Only you can figure out whatโs the best deal for you.

The best bargain i ever found was a mother of pearl drum kit 13 years ago that was mint condition in a skip outside my house ๐ didn't pay a dime. Still have it to this day and sounds lush.
โ12-01-2024 16:39 PM
Managed to find a fancy designer armchair on an online Marketplace for ยฃ30!

1. A projector from Richer Sounds, had their 6 year guarantee and was replaced for a new one 3 times during that period. Got so much use out of the projector for movies and gaming, good times.
2. This will probably stop getting me the ยฃ100 voucher oops ๐ฌ! But in December I got a three simo unlimited plan for business for ยฃ5pm+vat
3. use hotukdeals, blc, honey, Amex and their rewards offers, moneysupermarket always trying to get a bargain! My top tip though is itโs only as much a bargain as you use it or need and value it!
โ12-01-2024 16:38 PM

The best bargain is 100GB for 12ยฃ. Absolutely love it. Canโt understand how my friends still pay 50ยฃ to O2.
โ12-01-2024 16:38 PM
The best bargain Iโve done was swap to smarty. Recommend to my mom who is an old pensioner to switch to smarty to save her bills as sky keeps increasing their prices. We are happy with the services smarty provides us.
โ12-01-2024 16:39 PM
Best bargain I ever found was my Smarty contract
Best Bargain this year was no increase in my Smarty contract
best way to find a bargain is to keep abreast of all the deals and offers
โ12-01-2024 16:38 PM
One of the best bargains I've bagged this year was that I purchased during a major sale event. I had been tracking the price for a while and patiently waited for the opportune moment to make the purchase. I secured a significant reduction in the overall cost through a combination of discounts, promotions, and cashback offers. It's a great feeling when strategic planning and patience pay off, allowing me to get a high-quality item at a fraction of its original price.
โ12-01-2024 16:38 PM
Unlimited calls and texts, with 200GB data is pretty awesome bargain ๐ช๐คฉ
