  • What is your number one tip for getting a bargain?

Use a price-tracker app or website to track the prices of the items you want to buy, then buy them when they get cheaper or there's a special offer. Prices on sites like Amazon often fluctuate at different times of day - things can get cheaper late at night or early in the morning. Use a voucher app like "Honey" that will automatically try different voucher codes for you, and you get reward points for using it, this can save a lot of money over time.

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

Thatโ€™s a great question. I love finding good deals and saving money.

Thatโ€™s a great question. I love finding good deals and saving money. ๐Ÿ˜Š

One of the best bargain I've bagged this year was a LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon set that I bought online for ยฃ100. It was originally priced at ยฃ149.99, so I saved ยฃ49.99 or 33% off the regular price.

I was very happy with my purchase because Iโ€™m a big fan of Star Wars and LEGO, and this set is one of the most iconic and detailed models in the LEGO Star Wars collection. It has over 1300 pieces and features many authentic details, such as rotation top and bottom gun turrets, a cockpit that opens, a boarding ramp and six minifigures. It was alot of fun to build and display .

My best bargain was getting a sim that matched my current one at the time for half the price.

My number one tip would be to shop around and not just look at the big companies. They know most people will pick them for the name and therfore charge you for that. This applies to nearly everything

What was the best bargain you've ever found?

Thatโ€™s a tough question. There are so many amazing bargains out there, and Iโ€™m always on the lookout for them. ๐Ÿ˜Š

One of the biggest bargains I have even found was a brand new MacBook Air that I bought online for ยฃ500. It was originally priced at ยฃ999, so I saved ยฃ499 or 50% off the regular price. 

I found this deal on a website called DealNews, which is one of the best price bargain websites that are cheaper than eBay. They post daily deals and coupons across the web, and they have a team of experts who vet every single deal they post to ensure it's the best price available.

I was very lucky to find this deal because it was a flash sale that lasted only a few hours. I had to act fast and place my order before it sold out. I was so excited when I received my MacBook Air in the mail. It was in perfect condition and worked flawlessly.  It was one of the best purchases Iโ€™ve ever made, and I use it every day for work and entertainment. I love how fast, light, and sleek it is, and how it has a long battery  life and a retina display. It was definitely worth the money, and I'm very happy with my bargain .

My best bargain this year was a perfectly functional and comfortable chair for my room. I moved to UK from another country, and needed some furniture quickly and at a low cost, because it was going to be temporary. Some great lady offered me a nice roller chair for free, and I am still using it.

My best bargain in 2023 was switching to Smarty from my previous network provider. My monthly payment was halved and my data allowance more than doubled. Whatโ€™s not to like. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

My best bargain of all time was buying my home. I got it at a much reduced rate as it needed to be fully redecorated after the previous owner had rented it out and the tennantโ€™s had shown it no respect at all. 

My best tip for bagging a bargain is not to rush in, but to do some research.

Number 1 tip for getting the best bargain is to shop around on different websites for a product you like and apply for discount codes when it prompts you

Best bargain I ever got was when a lady was signing up people for a radio usage survey going door-to-door. I was reluctant but agreed to do one as she was nice, and a few years later have earned over ยฃ1000 from semi-regular radio diaries. It takes about 5-10 minutes of my time max to fill out a whole week.

Best bargain this year is probably a new mattress I bought. Turns out I needed it more than I thought, and I got money off and free pillows by talking to the support.

Advice for getting bargains online is so not be afraid to ask the customer support for a company if thereโ€™s a way they can get you a better deal. Iโ€™ve had plenty of money off from this approach.

I love smarty! The double data was an absolute bonus when I signed up so what did I do the day after? Yep! Signed my daughter and partner up too! My sister has also recently joined! Never had a problem with this network and I will continue to recommend:)!

My best bargain has to be buying the kids Christmas presents and my local Asda had reduced the last TV 32 inch sharp to ยฃ32 because ti was a split box. Contents absolutely fine.

Also a good bargain is a smarty sim card!!

Best bargain to date was some wonderful outfits from Temu. Didn't know about them until recently. Having said that nothing can beat Smarty's amazing plan for ยฃ8 I get double the amount of GBs for the whole year at a fraction of the price when compared to other network providers. Ended last year on an uplifting note! Big thank you! I am grateful to have found you! ๐Ÿ™‚
