My biggest bargain of 2023 was a 1996 Honda SH50 City Express with just 1000 miles on it. It was ridden for a year from new and then it lived in a garage until I was given it, yes... given it, after I requested any kind of motorcycle on my local Freecycle. I took it to bits, cleaned it, took it for its very first MOT, and now it's saving me a fortune in travel costs. Bargain of the decade!

November bargain - Upgrading my Smarty package from 12 to 32GB for the same cost per month

In reply to the question - "What was the best bargain you've bagged this year?"
I got a great deal on an outdoor Christmas decoration - a 6" long inflatable dachshund 🌭 - it was half-price and I got free postage and 7% Quidco credit with it too!
Also, number one tip for getting a bargain is to always see if Quidco (or similar) offer some extra discount, it soon adds up!

I think smarty is a great bargain. The best way to find bargains is to shop around

What was the best bargain you've ever found?
One of the more memorable was essentially being paid to get 4 premade cocktail cans from a shop. There is an app called "Greenjinn" that gives ypu cashback on purchases. This particular offer was "get one of each flavour for £3.25 and get cashback". The shop in question happened to be doing a deal of "2 for £6" so we gained a pound. Not a massive saving but it all adds up. Lovely.

My now wife, once wanted "sexy time", and I also ended up getting beautiful daughter. What a bargain!

Last year I managed to get a holiday in a 5 star resort in Punta Cana for less than £800 total for 9 nights by risking it and going at the end of a hurricane season. it only rained on the last day for few hours!
12-01-2024 17:13 PM
The best bargain I bagged this year was my dining table and benches for £200 off Gumtree - it's still being sold by the original retailer for £700!

Shop around and find discount codes. Enter competitions for vouchers 😜

Dropped from 20g to 8g however I still feel this is an absolute bargain.
No drop in service, no problem in terms of billing,
Will probably stay with Smarty for a long time as no one else comes close 👍🏼👍🏼

125 for 12

The most incredible deal is the £8 for 16 GB – it's unbelievable. I can easily go through a whole month with that plan and still have data left. It's so cost-effective that I referred a friend, and they joined too.
12-01-2024 17:12 PM
Best bargain of 2023 getting my mum signed up to smarty mare data cheaper price.
12-01-2024 17:11 PM
My best bargains is still with Smarty all the data for low prices getting great connections and since I saw advert on TV and joined was one of my best deccission I have made thank you for all guys doing for us. Got a great bargain on vinted for branded sunglasses. Just keep eyes out and do your research well. Hugs

My now wife once wanted to have "sexy time" and now I have a beautiful 2 year old daughter. Absolutely the best bargain I've ever got!

Best bargain was a leather jacket I bought in a charity shop for £10. When I got it home and tried it on again I found there was £40 in the inside zipped pocket!
So far this year my best bargain has been buying a jumper in the sales that I’d wanted for Christmas but both me and my husband were too poorly to buy it then after Christmas it was reduced by 50 percent
My best tip for bargains is to always check charity shops online. I’ve bought things from Oxfam which were a fraction of the retail price and my money has gone to a good cause.

Smarty and the Internet prices I love this network
12-01-2024 17:10 PM

What was the best bargain you've ever found?
Seems basic but getting a deluxe version of a board game in a charity shop for £10 when it was worth around £45! Maybe not the best saving but it was a great find!
