Best bargain ever found- a pair of shoes for £10.00 that fit my dodgy feet perfectly. 

Best bargain this year - a barbour knitted jumper for £38.00 .

Top tip - use cashback sites and use sales bit only buy what you need and not things just because they are 'a good price '.

My sim only deal is a great bargain, 120gb for £12! This year I managed to swing free tickets to a premiere event with free food and drink just by being a prime customer and our house was probably the best bargain to date!

  • What was the best bargain you've ever found? 2 fluffy original Disney PJs in the charity shop for my daughter for just £2. 🙂 She was so happy!
  • What was the best bargain you've bagged this year? This is also a crazy one: I managed to get a better total price from a pizzeria by ordering online the wanted products grouped in smaller deals (like 2 items) than their bigger grouped family deals (4+ items)...hahaha...should be the other away around, right? 🙂 
  • What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?  Keep items in your cart for a while before paying online. You might be surprised by a discount code popping in your email.

1. Best bargain ever?
Oh, definitely my bike I found at a garage sale.  It's been my go-to for everything since then. Such a useful mode of transport and fitness.

2. Best bargain this year?
 Got to be the headphones I snagged in an online sale. They were like 40% off! As someone who's always plugged into music, they've been a game-changer. Help with fitness and studying and staying focused.

3. Top tip for a bargain? Just do your research research research before buying anything. I always compare prices and wait for timely special offers, avoids clutter and wasted purchases.

One of the best bargains I found was Halford's Bicycle Trade In; bring in your old bike for 20% off a new one. The great thing about this deal is that practically every town has someone near you selling a second hand bike for next to no money, so you can buy a barely rideable bike for a tenner, take it to Halfords and get £100 off a brand new £500 bike.

I assume Halfords figured out this was more than a bit generous as they've since stopped putting that deal on. The bike I bought is still going strong though 4 years later, so definitely a bargain.

What was the best bargain you've ever found?

Bought a pc CPU i7-8700k for £52, last year I know it doesn't sound amazing but when you actually go out there and look at what price they sell... 

What was the best bargain you've bagged this year?

Went into my smarty app and seen a big banner giving me 20 extra GB of data each month for a year free of charge and it then reverts back to normal after that without ever charging me anything. I was on 100 GB now I'm on 120GB. Never seen a carrier do that, and if they did you'd have to give away all your data and info just for a chance to get an extra bread crumb that comes with 500 sneaky ToS .

I was actually amazed it was so clear, big banner to see, and no sneaky fineprint charges, or stuff like " and then we'll keep charging you more automatically " like other carriers do (EE are a prime example), greedy greedy corporation.

What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?

I don't really have tips, just try to lowball until the seller gives you a middle ground. Or just use smarty, where you get everything at the price of nothing.
