If you’re anything like me then you love a  bargain. You hunt around for the best deals, sign-up for Martin’s money-saving tips, keep an eye on sample sales via Daily Candy and have signed-up to just about every high-street shop’s website – just so you can receive the 20% off exclusive emails. So you can only guess my excitement, when I read about the Outnet’s 1st birthday celebrations.

 For one day only (April 16th), the discounted baby sister of net-a-porter (which owner Natalie Massenet sold for a cool £50 million last week) are offering items by Chloe, Marc Jacobs, Vivienne Westwood, Miu Miu, Stella McCartney and more for a pound. Yes, one measly pound! Imagine buying a Chloe handbag for the same price as two Mars bars or less than your daily skinny latte. I can’t wait and will keep you posted on all my purchases.

 What’s more, you can actually earn money to go towards your purchases on Ciao. The community-based price comparison site is currently offering double incentives for all written and video reviews until 15th April. So if there is a beauty product that you cannot live without (Clarins multi-active day cream is my must-have item) or you’d like to recommend a film, rant about a TV, MP3 player or anything really, sign-up to Ciao, get writing and earn yourself some extra cash.

 Now that’s what I call being a savvy shopper.

 Thanks,

Becs
