Dont be fooled by EUROFFICE big discounts!

Options
Euroffice - that claim to be "The UK's No. 1 Office Supplies Online for Small Businesses" frequently advertise offers that sound amazing such as "15% off first three orders", "30% off", even "75% off" etc.

It's clever marketing, but will rarely save you any money, this is what they do...
In the small print it always says that the offer does not apply to already discounted items (which sounds fair), BUT what they dont tell you is that about three quarters of their stock is already discounted from the RRP, and it is usually discounted by a small amount such as 5%, sometimes as little as 1%, which then excludes it from the amazing offer making only 5% (or whatever), the maximum discount that you will receive on that item.

The rest of the items, that are not already discounted, usually have hugely overinflated RRP prices, meaning that even after the 30% comes off, they still end up being similar prices to what you can pay elsewhere for the same stuff.

I'm sure there are exceptions to this and I guess that occasionally Euroffice do provide genuine offers, but on the whole, this is how their company works.

Hope it helps!
