This week’s bargain!

Working in Manchester City Centre brings with it the temptation to spend. With high street and high end fashion on your doorstep, it sometimes seems inevitable that your purse will be needed! 

However, bargains can always be found!

For example, this week I was having a wander during my lunch break and happened to stumble upon the Debenhams July 2017 sale. Now, coincidentally, I was in need of some new work boots. My current boots were literally falling apart. Thankfully, the Debenhams sale saved my feet and my bank balance!

Not only did I manage to get some Clarks Leather Ankle Boots for just £21, I also picked up some fabulous Jasper Conran Leather Ankle Boots for a mere £23.70… Both pairs were meant to be an eye-watering £80 each. Therefore I saved a total of £115.30!

To say that I was happy is an understatement!

Lucozade and Missguided: A Hot Collaboration!

Image
Firstly, I'd just like to say... this is possibly the best online competition of August 2017!  For those of you that don't know, Lucozade Energy UK has teamed up with Missguided - an online fashion store teaming with stylish clothing and accessories. I discovered that this fabulous collaboration had begun whilst on my way to work... Not only was I handed a free Lucozade Zero in Manchester Picadilly Station , I was given the chance to enter the Missguided 'Zero to Pay' competition!  So, I entered a code found on my Lucozade Zero can into the competition site , and I was automatically given a Missguided 30% discount code just for entering. Whats more, the next day I was emailed with another treat - 50% off my next Missguided order!  Therefore, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to both Lucozade and Missguided. This competition has literally made my week!
