Shopping 101!!!

Shopping 101!!!

Hi y’all so this is my first post, and I’ll be telling you guys the best possible way to buy those shoes/tops you really love without breaking your piggy bank.

So after several years of shopping, I have learnt a few basic tips on how to shop, save and have fun, which I’ll be sharing below;

The first tip is NEVER BUY ANYTHING AT THE ORIGINAL PRICE. Why? There is an 80% chance that whatever you want to buy will go on sale in a few weeks tops, and trust me it hurts to see something you have bought for £80 go down to £20 a few days after. It is one of the worst feelings ever.

The only condition where you should buy an item for the original price is if you absolutely love the item or you urgently need it. Then go for it and never go back to the site again to avoid disappointments.

The second tip while shopping is, ALWAYS CONFIRM THAT THERE ISN’T A 10% OR MORE VOUCHER OUT THERE THAT YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON. You won’t believe how many discount vouchers are out there waiting to be used that a lot of people are  oblivious to; I mean that’s like getting your money back. who doesn’t like to get money back after shopping?

Also a lot of stores give student discounts, so you should always confirm if there is any available if you are a student as every penny saved counts.

The third tip of shopping is ALWAYS ENSURE THERE IS NO PLACE YOU CAN FIND THE ITEM AT A CHEAPER PRICE. I have found out that googling the description of an item can lead you to potential cheaper vendors, however be sure these vendors are legitimate and they have exactly what you are looking for. This tip will ensure that you don’t feel cheated when you and your friends compare notes on the price of that cute top you both have.

The Fourth tip is ENSURE YOU SORT BY PRICE, SPECIFICALLY LOW-HIGH, trust me they have a way of sucking you into the more expensive things by dangling them in your face on the first two pages and eventually you lose hope. By sorting by price you can ensure that when you get to your price limit you can stop, you won’t believe how many low-priced items you would not find if you don’t sort by price. You should try this yourself

Finally, ALWAYS SHOP ONLINE. Why? Because you find better things online especially because shopping in store can be a nightmare. Shopping online means you can easily sort according to your preference and give you a wider variety of choice. Furthermore, most vouchers you find online are not redeemable in store.

The bargain of the week can be found at shoeaholics.com. There’s no better place to get cheap, beautiful shoes for as low as reasonably possible.

P.S: Shop wisely!!!
