Saving and Making Money

25 April 2008 | 0 Comments

The sun is shining, the birds are singing and the barbecues are out. Here are some hot deals to help you enjoy the coming of spring.

The sun is finally making (reluctant) attempts to shine, and this week, the top deals are all about the great outdoors. Deep discounters Lidl and Aldi are going head to head to provide the great British public with excuses to get out and about. Lidl's current specials include beer and burgers perfect for a barbeque. And from Monday, it'll also be selling a host of affordable gardening equipment, including hand tools for £1.79 and a pack of six strawberry plants for £2.99. Meanwhile, Aldi is focusing on camping and outdoor kit. You can pick up a sleeping bag for £9.99, or a three-person tent for £24.99. If you'd prefer to stay wrapped up warm indoors, check out the current prize blitz at Asda. There are lots of new books for under £4, CDs for under £5 and DVDs for under £10. And finally, something that saves money and brings peace of mind. Book a Home Fire Safety Visit with your local Fire and Rescue Service, and you'll get free smoke alarms installed, as necessary, as part of a free visit from a serving fireman. Calm down Ladies!  Offers which continue to be valid: Anyone looking to get a new TV might want to check out eBuyer's offer on this Vistron 32" LCD TV.  It's HD ready, has digital freeview built in and is available with a glossy black finish. Best of all, the price is now just £299, so you save £60. If you're in the market for a posh barbeque, you might also be interested in this Fiesta Blue Ember Gas Barbeque from Homebase. It can cook for up to eight people simultaneously, and comes complete with cast iron cooking grills, an infra-red rotisserie and even a bottle opener and ice bucket. This is one barbie that's sure to impress the neighbours... Just don't tell them you got it for £399 - £100 off the RRP! More discounts on electrical goods can be found at Currys. If you're shopping online, use one of their discount codes to get money off your purchases. Alternatively, if you sign up for a free film trial with Lovefilm.com at the moment, you'll get a £10 voucher for Dixons. Just quote the code DXSOL7 in the relevant box on the site. (As always, remember to cancel your direct debit after the free trial is over if you decide not to continue with Lovefilm membership). Anyone looking to eat out on the cheap this week should head to their local Wagamama. You can currently get 2 for 1 on main meals through Handbag.com -- simply print off the voucher, fill it in and present it before you place your order.                   And Amazon is still running its half price sale on many Puma trainers. There are plenty of sizes available, with everything from football boots to dainty pumps up for grabs. Love those Mr Men books? Well, whether you're a child at heart, or, er, just a child, you can now get your mitts on a free giant double sided Mr Men poster while stocks last. Anyone with an Xbox 360 might be interested in this portable 64MB memory unit, which is now less than half price (£9.99) at Argos. If you're heading to a mate's house for a night of gaming, taking this drive with you means you can transport your game progress and your Xbox Live account. Those looking to invest in car break-down cover should check out the RAC's policies, currently discounted by 25% if you sign up online. Better still, buy your cover through cashback website Quidco and get £21 cash back. Policies start from £33. If you're a pizza-lover, you can still get 20% off Domino's Pizza orders over £20 when you pay with your Barclaycard. Quote code BCZ8LJJJ when you're ordering. But fill up fast -- the offer ends on April 30th. And thanks to Sky, you can still get 2 for 1 entry to a range of top attractions until 31 May. These include Alton Towers, Thorpe Park, Madame Tussauds and Warwick Castle. You can print off as many vouchers as you like, and Sky customers can also receive a 50% discount at Alton Towers Resort Hotels. Book by phone on 0871 222 9847 and quote promotion code: SKY. Voucher code heaven can be found at myvouchercodes.co.uk, a website which lists a range of discount codes and printable vouchers to help you save on your everyday shopping. Deals encompass everything from buy one get on free on Greggs pasties to £20 off orders at dixons.co.uk. And Amazon fans looking for a bargain should take note of Price Cut Review, a nifty website that lists all current Amazon products selling at half price or less.
