Although
the sales started in the shops some time ago, it’s not too late to pick up a
bargain or two. In fact, some of my best ever bargains have been bought during
the closing stages of sales.
You may
have heard me talk about the £3 pair of boots that I picked up in Marks and
Spencer or the £5 pair of jeans that I bought on another occasion. This January
I’m scouring the stores as usual for last minute finds.
There are
still a number of toiletry, make-up and perfume sets on sale in places such as
Boots (currently 50% discount, but usually changes to 75% or even 90% as sales
progress), Superdrug and some supermarkets. Don’t make the mistake of thinking
that these sets are only useful as gifts, as they are handy to just stock up
your general supplies of cosmetics and toiletries if bought for the right
price.
I’ve
purchased a Nivea set containing Express Hydration Body Lotion (250ml), Express
Hydration Hand Lotion (100ml) and Hydro Care Lip (4.8g) for just over £2. The
usual retail price for these items individually is £3.75, £3.39 and £1.99
respectively, so this was a fantastic saving. This kind of gift set offer
allows you to stock up with cosmetics and toiletries for some time to come at a
bargain price.
Of course,
a big rule of sale shopping is to only buy things that you are really going to
use – don’t let a ridiculously low price tempt you into buying something that
you wouldn’t normally consider purchasing!
So what are
you waiting for? Get out there and trawl those last minute sale bargains.
