Matalan - loads of stupidly cheap shoes & bags!

Options
Loads of on-trend shoes in Matalan sale from £4.

I got black caged shoe-boots for £4.50, purple shoe-boots for £4 & some pink & grey platforms for £4.

Also, loads of bags from a quid - got a gorgeous heart-shaped black & white crocodile skin-effect bag for £1.25 - bargain!

Clothes are pretty cheap too - loads of stuff under a tenner. The Bloke picked up a new suit for work for £22!

  • I managed to pick up some funky rock chick shoes for £5!!! Bargain! Although may not be able to walk in them! LOL
    Nothing feels better than saving money :j
  • They'll only get cheaper - last year I picked up two pairs of shoes for £1 each (98p - thank you vat reduction!) just after new year, i think. Of course, there probably won't be as much stock / choice left then.

  • Just got back from Matalan (they're open until 6pm today), lots of sale items reduced again, people were piling up their trollies:rotfl:. Well worth a trip if you have one near you.

    Most of the stuff hasn't been priced down yet on the tags so you dont know what you'll pay until you get to the checkout....a really helpful SA told me lots of the stock was being reduced again as we spoke (and that he shouldn't really be telling me!).

    I just put anything I liked in my trolley and checked the price once I got to the till.
    I bought 2 roasting tins with racks £3.75 each, originally £15(two more Christmas pressies sorted).
    2 pairs of lined floor length curtains for my living room, original price £50 came up at £15! Just what I was looking for.
    5 blouses for work all £2-£3 each.
    Bottle of virgin olive oil 1/2 price £1.50.
    All the Christmas decs/gifts are 1/2 price then BOGOF.

    Total spend £67.50 for around £250 worth of goods, yay!:j

    I went today and managed to get a few pieces... I think my local one had reduced things a few days ago as there wasn't much variety left. but worth the trip...

    I bought a few bits in my local Matalan today! Got a £25 dress for £2! Shame they only had certain sizes otherwise i would have spent a whole heap more! Maybe i should just buy the small sizes and hope the new year diet goes well? Knowing my track record i doubt it though! :)

    Went to Matalan in Halton, Leeds and got some lovely children's clothes reduced like a coat for my liitle man for £4. They had absolutely rails and rails of women's clothes in the sale - if you could be bothered looking through them.

    Just be sure to check your receipt though - some items that I bought had 1/2 price stickers on them but went through the till at full price.
    Life's too short for wasting on ifs and might have beens...........

    VERY happy with this sale :=)
    Went first thing this morning, walked round and had a huge basket full, worked it out when I got home, added up to 200.00 worth of stuff for 49.00 - bargain. Did have to take a lot back though as im a funny size at the moment and it just didnt fit (damn xmas haha), and one of the dresses was ever so slightly damaged. Couldn't believe those ruffle shoes for 3.50 though and several other things. I spent 27.00 today, and got two lovely pairs of shoes (original price 14 ea) a lovely dress with studded belt for 5.00 (original 20.00) a long cardy for 4.00 (18.00 original) a cardigen for 4.00 (14.00 original) and a lovely blue top for 3.50 (original 14.00)
    Didnt have a lot of time to look today as my dad was with me argh lol. But I think I shall have to go back :)
