Not sure if you are meaning just random bargains or only for telephone providers... If you mean random the best bargain I found last year was definitely the record of the Pulp Fiction soundtrack in the one pound bin in a charity shop! Was really happy with that

My number one tip for getting a bargain, which works for me every time - is to know the exact name of the product or item you want to purchase. For example an iPhone 14 Pro Max 256GB and type this directly into google then search. The search will return every store that sells this product and you’ll be able to compare prices for the most cost effective option.
Bonus tip - I always seek out used, refurbished or preloved products as I find they are best value for money. So you can include the key words ‘used’ ’refurbished’ or ‘preloved’ in your google search form example ‘refurbished iPhone 14 Pro Max 256GB’ and you’ll be surprised you’ll find what you want for less!

The best bargain that I achieved to date was the cheapest monthly plan that I have had secured with my Smarty mobile number. Smarty has been a great service provider with a wide range of plans that can fit everyone's budget.

Best bargain is the SMARTY discount for multiple SIMs - I have three! Also the fact that EU roaming is still included. That really is the clincher for me.

Best? Probs a few veggies from the community garden with really cool and pretty varieties. They were offering them for free but I definitely donated quite a bit.

My number one tip for getting a bargain is when lots of sellers on eBay are all selling the same item at around the same price, add all of the items to your Watch List. Usually, after a couple of days, at least one of the sellers will offer you a 5% or 10% discount on the standard price

The best bargain I've bagged this year was to use my Smarty data to go on eBay, and instead of searching for a hub for my Apple MacBook Pro laptop, instead I searched for a docking station. Everyone searches for a hub because it's small, but it draws its power from the laptop, so it might burn out the laptop's overheated ports. However, very few people search for a docking station, which does exactly the same job as a hub, but the dock draws its power from a standard wall socket, so the laptop's ports don't get overheated. I purchased a used, top brand dock worth £250, in MINT condition, for £12.49 *INCLUDING* shipping. Apart from my Smarty SIM only deal, the dock was absolutely my bargain of the year

Hi all
Best bargain I found was my home theater soundbar system, it was out of stock everywhere untill one day it became instock at a bargain price.
Best bargain I've had so far this year is a dolls house for my daughter I spent £13 on it and wasn't expecting much but its actually quite good and turned out to be quite big in size and you can make 2 different types of houses from the one set.
My Number one tip to grab a bargain would be to use the price runner website you can complete a form with what you are looking to buy and get emailed when the item has been advertised at its lowest price.
Good luck everyone

My best bargain of 2023 was taking out a Smarty sim only plan.
The best tip I can give is to think about your phone & data requirements and then to shop around to find the best deal that fits those requirements 😀

I think the best bargain I found was in 2023, which was for an Amazon Fire TV Cube, which should have been £140 but with black friday deal and trading in an old unused fire stick it ended up being £85, around a 60% discount in the end. My tip for getting a bargain is to wait it out if you can, for it to be discounted and see if you have anything to trade in too.

My best bargain was a set of small drawers from Wilkos, about 2 years ago. They fit perfectly in a living cupboard and it's where I keep all of my tea lights, wax melts and other bits and bobs that I want to keep stashed away. It was an absolute bargain - reduced to 80p because the outside of it was marked. I took it home, gave it a scrub and it looks fabulous.

Best bargain ever was a top quality Italian jacket from a charity shop for a fiver. I wore it loads!
Best bargain in the past 12 months wasn't from a charity shop though, it was our Smarty SIM. Not joking.
For a top tip, we're back to charity shops: visit charity shops in an upmarket town or suburb. There are people who chuck out surprising classy items in great condition.

I can't believe how cheap smarty is. Best bargain for 2023 I believe. My best bargain over all is my Tesco rewards vouchers, giving me year after year of free and discounts on food, days out, car wash and many more. Great being able to choose the options. No 1 tip for getting a bargain know what you want and the max price you're willing to pay, ofcourse shop around.

My best bargain ever - paying £190 for a diamond ring on eBay which I then had valued to check its authenticity. I nearly collapsed when the valuation came back at £2100
