Or perhaps you like to wear designer gear but can’t afford the prices? There are ways you can buy quality gear and not pay full price, so how do you do it? Here’s our tips on how to get a great look for less money!
1: Wait for the Sales
This is a sensible thing to do as it’s the worst feeling ever when you buy something and then see it on sale at half the price the next week! It’s worth waiting if a retailer is advertising an upcoming sale as they often give massive discounts that you can’t afford to miss. Check online too, as there are bargains to be had at online retail stores, and the prices online tend to be lower to begin with thanks to lower overheads.
2: Online Auctions
They take some searching but it’s always worth keeping an eye on the online auction sites – and at auction houses that sell online – for fashion items. Sometimes people buy a beautiful garment, wear it once and then don’t want it again, and you can get a knock-down price on something very expensive. Also, look for auctions of bankrupt stock which usually yield some truly great buys, but if buying online at auction remember you’ll pay a buyer’s fee over the hammer price, and you’ll have to arrange delivery too.
3: Use Coupon Deals
Are you familiar with coupons and online coupon sites? If not we strongly recommend you check out Coupon Dad as a leading name in the field. They can give you details of printable coupons for money off fashion items – and other goods and services too – or tell you promo codes that you can use when shopping online. Coupons really are a superb way of getting great deals, and yet many people overlook them or are unaware. There are some excellent coupons to be found, so start now!
4: Last Season’s Stock
If you’re not fussy about wearing gear that is fresh to the market, head to the designer shops and look for those selling last seasons gear. They will discount what they have left to clear the space for the new stock coming in, and you can find some heavily reduced items that will be absolutely top quality and worth buying. It’s a great way for designer label lovers to get name gear without paying top prices. There are many high street and online retailers that deal specifically in last season stock, so they’re worth a look too.
5: Second Hand Shops
Are you concerned about wearing second hand clothes? You really shouldn’t be as with designer gear you’ll find that people are very careful with clothing, and as it’s well-made it will last a long time. Besides, a ‘worn in’ leather jacket – for example – always looks better than a brand new one! Check out what people are selling second hand; you never know what you might find. Here’s a tip – check out the shops in the more affluent areas for the better-quality gear, it really does pay to take a trip once in a while!
The above are just a few great ways that you can save money and still buy top quality fashion and designer goods, and we recommend you check out coupons in particular as there are some truly amazing discounts to be found on a regular basis. Make sure you visit the coupon site we mentioned and get a look at the other items you can get discounts for too, and you really can’t lose!
