Toms number one top tip about getting a bargain is being kind and friendly to the person you're trying to get a bargain off! They're people too and being kind and easy to get along with goes along way! 🙂

Apart from my amazing deal I have with Smarty (it’s hard to beat), the best bargain I’ve bagged in 2023 was my new iPhone, which I got via a link on the Smarty App. An iPhone 14 from reboxed. I picked up the pro model for less than £700, which is around £300 cheaper than getting it from Apple. 
The phone is as good as new, I can’t tell any difference, apart from it’s not in a sealed Apple box. 
I’ll definitely be using Reboxed again next time.

The best bargain I have ever bagged was the 16GB for £8 only! I was so shocked considering not a lot of brands do that cheap for 16GB.

The best bargain I've bagged this year was the 50% off at Pandora.  I got to get the bracelet I wanted for the price it deserved.

My number tip for getting a bargain is downloading the brands you want.

  • What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?
  • Sign onto a cashback site and check if the purchase is available there. Check the exact product by looking at other purchasers comments and advice. Always think "if the bargain looks too good to be true there may be a scam". Never pay until you are convinced that really "need it" not just "want it".

What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?

 

sometimes all you need to do is wait. Cause I manage to get a shoe I really like for 50% off in January when originally it was only 20% off only.

1) the best bargain I ever bagged was last year when my partner referred me to SMARTY. I pay £8 for 32GB of data which is excellent value for money! I also get 5G in certain areas which is fantastic. I used to pay £12 for 20GB! So not only am I paying less I am getting more for my money! I also love the fact with SMARTY I can easily access how much data I am using every day.

2) the best deal I've bagged this year is getting Harry Porter Legacy on the Nintendo switch for only £31!

3) research - plenty of it! To invest time in comparing places too.

Some of the best places to get a bargain is using HotUKDeals. You can also use telegram and search from groups with bargains or price glitches.

The best bargain I got was a pair of Bluetooth headphones from £90 down to £10.

Best bargain - a blouse for a pound.

Best bargain last year - refund on eurostar due to delay. Used Tesco vouchers in the beginning so cost zero in the end. And delay didn't impact our onward journey. 

Top tip - its only a bargain if you are going to make use of it or sell it on.

I am on the promotional 180gb for £15 per month plan, even before that I was more rhan happy with 150gb for £15 a month as it was excellent value. I've managed to save money with SMARTY and also its been a flawless network for me, much better than my old networks 02 and EE. Thanks SMARTY!!!

I honestly can't think of what my best bargain ever would be, but my latest this year is a £10 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 £40 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 £8!! Definitely was worth it going to this provider instead of my old one, even better getting 5G!!

My best bargain is a pair of purple Hunter wellies. I'm a size 5 so managed to get a junior size for £9!

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!

What was the best bargain you've ever found?

Without a doubt, the winter deal which offers 125GB, unlimited calls and messages for £12.

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 £10 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.
