Best bargain is unreal data, calls and text Sims from SMARTY! I moved my kids to SMARTY and myself I spend £30.20 a month on all 3 and for that we get a total of 245 GB of Data, unlimited calls and texts. 

Top tip- contact SMARTY if you see they have a new deal you are interested in and when you plan renews you get the new plan and price.

Getting 10% off all plans as we are in a group 😊😘

[Michael_1185015]

My best bargain was my Smarty SIM card which I haves saved ££££s on compared to my old EE contract. Extremely happy! 

[Natalia_1466532]

The best bargain I’ve found is Smarty’s £12 for 100gb data, such an amazing offer! 

[TrevRobo]

The best bargain was getting the smarty SIM and always having 5g and lots of data.

[MJK]

The best bargain I found this year is a pair of ear buds for £20. I was keen to try ear buds as I had mainly used wired headphones previously. I was reluctant to buy a pair of more expensive ear buds as I find it difficult to get earphones that fit comfortably. I tried a pair from a small UK manufacturer (Majority) and I'm impressed with the sound quality for the price. They fit comfortably and stay in

[EmmaRees060620]

Best bargain was my smarty sim only plan which is just £12 a month, 100G data! 
best bargain tips use price comparison websites like Uswitch to get the best deals! Very happy. 

[JennyHo_2138311]

My number one tip for getting a bargain is to buy second-hand! Charity shops, vinted and depop are great for clothes and backmarket sells refurbished electronics. So much better for the planet too! 

[petregiu_616012]

Best bargain for me was the unlimited 3 day data pass 

My tip is to shop around, if you can grab a no contract, pay as you go plan

[BrianSm_1628127]

my favourite bargain was finding Smarty, particularly the great deal for roaming in Europe vs the extortionate giffgaff deal. Although I do most of my bargain hunting on line, never rule out the high street. 

[Brian2554]

I consider the best bargain i have found is joining Smarty after years of being ripped off by other companies

the double up bargains are certainly most impressive, I cant see me going anywhere in the future

Keep up the great work Smarty

[AndraHo_1827650]

I recommend everyone to subscribe to smarty newsletter as they send many great offers via email. I personally got for black friday unlimited for 16 pounds for a whole year! 

[AlexPet_1950394]

Black Friday 2023, 50gb for 8£ a month- great deal 😀 

Also the fact that you can use roaming included in your contract,  so good! 

[MarkHey_1707333]

Best bargain was getting a virtually new car for half price, under 2000 miles on the clock and no wear, bought it 6 months ago

Always be patient and don't be afraid to walk away, always research thye item you want to buy and compare with other sellers

[HenryWh_1410575]

Always paying a set amount each month that doesn’t change by surprise and no contact. 

[ALBERTH_2181064]

Like others, getting an extra Gigabyte of data for free on my plan was a great bargain.

[smifcouk]

Bargain (?) ... Hmm ... Had quite a few in my time ... From Clothes to Media to Vehicles to, well, you name it ... Recently had a stonker of a deal on the mini PC i'm using to type this ... Hit the purchase at just the righty time with an exceptional offer price PLUS an extra discount ... Cha-ching ... Had a deal on a brilliant Bosch Professional SDS Hammer Drill that cost me just over 80 quid (Brand New AND sealed) AND came with a £50 Quick Change Chuck thrown in 'free' ... BUT ... My absolute bestest ever bargain was a 12 day Holiday Cruise with Hurtigruten along the full length of the Norwegian coast ... All inclusive, outside cabin, return UK flights to Bergen included ... Scenery, wildlife, sunsets, huskies, the Arctic Circle, etc etc, and the MOST magical Northern Lights spectacle over about 4 of the nights ... I understand that 1200 quid isn't necessarily 'cheap' in the grand scheme of things to a lot of people (i mean, i could have picked that i get way more than i should for well less than a tenner each month from Smarty) BUT what that trip gave in return for that money was worth WAY WAY WAY much more !?!

[JamesLe_1616662]

The best bargain I ever found was SMARTY I had been with several other providers but none could match SMARTY for cost, ease of ending a contract without waiting, one, two years 

Getting a suit for my grandsons wedding 

Always do your homework never jump in because it looks cheap, double, triple check then if ok go for it 

[Thedoctor6678]

1)when paying for 4GB of data then getting an extra 2GB 

2)moving from an data provider to this one 

3)just stay with smarty if your with them already if your not then what are you waiting for 

[LeeLaw_1231937]

Best deal I got was £8 for 32GB unlimited text and calls during Black Friday. Best deal of the year! 

[DutchHolland003]

My best bargain was a Shark cordless vacuum! 47% discount just before Christmas and just as the Dyson was giving out so perfect timing.

[JaiBo]

"What was the best bargain you've ever found?" Smarty, of course!

The group plan is a really good idea... but it could be better! 😛 Why not let us share unused data amongst the accounts too? Fair enough, if you need to set an expiration on it or some sort of time-based restriction, but I think lots of customers would really like this! 😉

[DanielH_2354659]

The best bargain I found this year, was an almost new jacket for 99p at the Chafity shop by me where everything is 99p!

I'd also recommend charity shops as my top tip for getting a bargain! 

Thanks smarty for your sim card, which is also a bargain! 

[SagarPatel21]

My best bargain was getting this SMARTY sim for £8 a month with more data than I'll ever need!

[MilesGo_2323807]

the best bargain I got this year was giving xqc 100M to stream on my platform 

[PaulHay_1808156]

Best purchase of the year was my smarty sim card! I was paying £25 a month now I'm paying £10 a month thanks to smarty. I have recommended all of my friends and so far I have received £20 in amazon vouchers. 

[RobinRi_1612587]

What was the best bargain you've ever found? Booking an air-miles return flight to the US which only cost me the air passenger duty.

What was the best bargain you've bagged this year? Less than a fortnight in, so it’ll have to be half price confectionery.

What is your number one tip for getting a bargain? Keep looking , they’re out there and  haggle - it’s easy.

[MariaDe_1760659]

The best bargain for 2023 was me signing up with Smarty which I save money and I also got my husband sign up with Smarty so we both save money.. also my three symbolins are with smarty, so they too can save money. I like there's community, so any problems I can get answer from other users, Very smart . 

[AndrewW_1708220]

I love buying secondhand! Not only is it good for the planet, but also good for your pocket! We bought a beautiful solid oak table and chairs for £85 and we love it! 

[Greg]

Q) What was the best bargain you've ever found?

A) A few years ago, I found an old army dress jacket in a charity shop that was being sold really cheap, about £30. It has some buttons on it that turned out to be make from solid gold sovereigns. That was a good day. 

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

A) I assume you mean 2023. I managed to pick up a really rare piece of uranium glass from a charity shop for around 30p.

Q) What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?

A) My tip is, it's only a bargain, if you needed it and you found it cheap. If you bought something you didn't need, it's not a bargain. 

[MehulGo_1948467]

My favourite bargain was getting my 100gb plan for only £10

[Stefani_2487043]

£100 Amazon voucher would be nice

[NickSmi_1473640]

£12 per month for over 100 gb of data is the best bargain I’ve found..

my best bargain this year would be finding a £275 suit for £39.99

tips for a bargain is shop around. If you see something you like … pause and look online if you can find it cheaper 

[anisedd]

best bargaain was getting smarty, cheap, reliable and limited number of emails

[MehulGo_1948467]

Getting my 100bf sim plan for only £10 a month 

[Shannon_mccar]

My best bargain for 2023 was getting my smarty sim it's so much cheaper than other providers and has an excellent signal wherever l go! 

[RobertS_1327745]

Best bargain? some sock absorbers for my bike, £165 for 2, cost new £1100 each. Result.

[wnn]

Best bargain was the cheap sim with good data that can even be used in Europe!

[Birb_2128688]

Favourite thing is the reduced price for a group. 

[EricWate_929805]

Smarty 32GB sim for £8 per month

[Birb_2128688]

I like the discount for group members. There is nothing like that anywhere else so that’s cool.

Also the 12Gb roaming.
