    Hello :hello:

    I got quite a few bargains (it's the only time I like to buy things!) but my best one was a jacket, good quality, reduced from £120 to £5!
  • Hi

    I guess the best one had to be a John Rocha skirt for my daughter for £1.99

    Mine was nearly £70 of George Collection from Asda for £12! Two pairs of trousers and two tops. That's work sorted until the summer.

    I got £60 worth of presents for birthdays and next christmas from boots for £13.75 but I had a boots voucher from pigsback that I didn't use before christmas so in effect it cost me £3.75

    I got a lovely pair of embroidered jeans from Next, reduced from £55 to £15, I think that was a good buy! I had been looking at them for ages before the sale, but I would never have paid more than £15 for them.

    Got loads of pressies in the boots sale, a half price xmas tree from tesco etc, but my best bargain was actually for the sheltered scheme where I work.
    Managed to pick up a six foot inflatable snow globe thingy,with santa and a xmas tree inside,illuminated and it snows. It was reduced from £95 to £22.
    Also got a smaller four foot one with a snowman and penguins in reduced from £75 to £18. So instead of £170 just spent £40:D :D:D will be great for filling up the big communal spaces in the scheme and will get lots of years use out of them:D

    Have you noticed its mainly women who have replied to this thread Wonder why.....

    I've got absolutely loads in the Debenhams blue X sale. Had quite a few christmas pressies for next year (sad). Have not bought anything full price in ages now. Get more of a buzz when it's got a money off sticker on it.

    have to say the most exciting thing i've bought since xmas was my ipod, but that wasn't on sale, mores the pity!

    i did buy a watch from claires that was half price down to £6 and it has glittery stars all round the strap. few bits of clothes and shoes but nothing terribly amazingly reduced
  • apair of trousers, along black floaty skirt (nice with boots) a lilac skirt for summer and a white t-shirt, all £1 from m&s today!!:j
