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.

[ZiadaQur_648498]

My best bargain for 2023 was getting my smarty sim and for my daughter. it's so cheap and has an excellent signal wherever l go, thank you smarty!

[SusanWe_1920831]

Compare prices

[Elliott_Healey]

Best bargain ive found for myself has been 16GB for £8 which has worked very well for me. Great signal/connection at a great price. Cant beat it. Plus with SMARTY there are bargains all year round so its a Win win. Wait a month or two and your guaranteed to find the right subscription for yourself. 

Well done SMARTY 

[J_Moriarty01]

Best bargain I've ever found, was actually in 2023. It was the Black Friday deal on my SMARTY contract. 32GB for £8, doubling my regular data amount.

As for my number one tip for getting deals. Well it's not exactly revolutionary, but just wait until usual sales. Black Friday, Cyber Monday, January Sales etc. Prices usually drop for things, or allow for better deal offers.

[Richard_1534581]

125gb deals is great 😇🤣😇🤣

[Richard_1534581]

Just look for the best deal suit for you...

[William_2149759]

I once bought a case of glass jars and phials from an antique store for only a few pounds. Whilst cleaning them up I found a letter and a withered lump of something inside one and it turned out to be an important holy relic which is now kept in a shrine in a cathedral. So maybe that was a bargain - a brush with Christ for less than a fiver?

[SheilaB_2408825]

The best bargain I found in 2023 was double data on the smarty sim

[SheilaL_2251834]

Smarty is the best bargain great network and fantastic plans

[Tasla]

1. Of course Smarty (I don't believe it how cheap).

2. Sold my gamer laptop.

3. There's a lot of coupon codes, discounts. And invite friends to Smarty. Just smartly😎

[Skeetem]

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

…it’s has to be the customer service! There when you need it, happy to help, witty conversation and always resolves an issue #bargainservice…bet O2 cant better that deal! 

[RobCull1]

Running shoes 

[KGSmarty]

Even without asking for it, SMARTY automatically extended my discounted deal for another 12 months, so this is my best bargain I have bagged this year, thank you SMARTY.

[PaulWhy_2443676]

Best bargain in 2023 is Octopus Intelligent for electric vehicle charging, 7.5p per kWh overnight for the whole house - saved a fortune

[MartinA_1709997]

My best ever bargain was getting 3p off a tin of beans in Tesco because the tin was damaged

[Skeetem]

What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?

Number 1 tip for bagging a bargain is to check out Smarty website! Offering everything from data sim only bundles for fantastic prices to refurbed for phones at a fraction of other resellers prices!

[NommyW111]

Always SMARTY. It's been my best bargain ever since I joined. The tariffs are brilliant and being able to use a large chunk of my data allowance when I holiday in France and Spain is a win win for me. Thank you SMARTY.

[Skeetem]

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

Finding out Smarty are onboard with 5g switch over 🥂

[Karling]

 Easy question... I'm still rockin' a 60GB Smarty Sim.. And Zero issues to date! Thanks TEAM SMARTY ❤️

[MariaUr_1189765]

Waterproof boots in half price sale. No wet feet this year!

[DenisBo_1555266]

Lower your plan when you realise you don't need unlimited or 100GO data, so you pay for what you need only.

[ScottSul_444073]

Best bargain this year was Smarty!

[KarenDa_1787617]

£470 package for 2 ppl  for 2 weeks in turkey, pow

[Victoria_975853]

Good luck with the draw!

[ClaireS_1367180]

The best bargain I bagged in 2023 was a laptop in a black friday sale, it was almost half price. I also had a browser extension running that sent a donation to my daughter's scout group too. 

[pnav-ms]

The best bargain I've ever got is switching from another provider to SMARTY. From 10 pounds for 8 gigs a month to 10 pounds for 40 gigs. Absolutely the best bargain I've ever found and I am thankful for SMARTY's great offers!

[dmpwright]

Getting 60 GB per month for only £10!

[bladecaster]

best way to find bargains is HUKD 🙂

[ConnieL_2171063]

Getting £10 voucher for referring friends and paying £10 for 40Gb on Smarty!

[BenBent_1364537]

My biggest bargain is of 2023 is 60 GB of monthly data for a tenner with Smarty! Saves me a fortune 

[MrKim]

Best ever bargain: finding out that I can buy a second hand iPhone for £30 and a Smarty SIM for £5 a month. Resisted buying a smartphone for a long time due to cost, but in this modern world we just need to have one. Great that SMARTY makes that possible without costing a fortune.

Best bargain this year: my Meta Quest 3. What an incredible piece of kit and although £475 is a lot of money, it is no more than a good TV and what’s the point of that with all the rubbish and repeats. In regards to entertainment versus cost, my Meta Quest 3 is the best piece of tech I have ever bought.

No.1 tip for a bargain: while interest rates are higher, don’t pay for anything on finance!

[SarahBee]

My tip would be there are some great fb groups for sharing bargains people have found but don’t get swept up in it - if it’s not something you actually need then it’s not a bargain 

[Karling]

• What was the best bargain I've ever found?

Hmmm, let me think..

Ok, yes... Well whilst using my Smarty 60GB Data and Call Sim Card for just £10 per month, I once found whilst surfing online a pack of sausages being offered at a local store a few miles away on a buy 2 get 1 free deal!

I'm not daft and know when there's a bargain to be had so I immediately got dressed and called a taxi and bought 2 packs... I was chuffed I got 1 more absolutely FREE! 

[GavinYo_1664339]

The group discounts are insane 

[gbengoyor]

What's your number one tip for getting a bargain.

There are many tips and tricks for getting a bargain, but if I had to choose one, I would say research the price in advance. Knowing the market value of an item can help you negotiate confidently and avoid overpaying. You can also check online reviews and ratings to see if the quality matches the price.

If you are shopping in a local market or a place where haggling is common, you can also use some other strategies to get a better deal, such as:                                                                               

get a better deal, such as:

• Making a low but reasonable starting offer and working up your way up to meet the seller.
• Having cash in hand and showing it to the seller as a sign of commitment.
• Not getting attached to an item and willing to walk you away if the price is too high.
• Being polite and respectful with the seller, and complimenting their products.             I hope the above tips helps you find some great bargains. 

[GavinYo_1664339]

My best bargain was the group discount from smarty mobile 

[SarahJa_1252515]

Best bargain: 60p for a tick remover for my dog and cats.  Works a treat 🙂

[AlexN_2193246]

My best bargain I have ever found was Smarty sim, low price but great value.
