Here are some great ways to save money in our latest money-saving round-up.

High Street Sales

You could save up to 70% at the Debenhams clearance sale. There's a white crinkle fabric dress on offer for just £10, down from £20.

The sales also continue at Next and Marks & Spencer.

Cotswold Outdoor

There are good deals on offer in the summer sale at Cotswold Outdoor. If you don't know this company, it -- wait for it -- sells outdoor stuff. You could buy a North Face Antigravity jacket for £120, down from £200 or a Womens Edelweiss T shirt for just £9.

Amazon

At Amazon, get a free camera case when you buy selected digital cameras. In the books section, The Great Big Glorious Book For Girls is on offer at £8.55, a 55% discount.

Travel

At Airline Network you can book a trip for two to Australia with Quantas and get your first two nights' accommodation for free.

British Airways still has a seat sale on for tickets to the US and Canada. You could fly to New York from £257 return. You won't be able to travel until November 1st but you must book by August 15th.

Supermarkets

Now that we've got some decent weather, we thought we'd take a look at ice cream prices at some of the major supermarkets. The data came from our friends at mysupermarket.co.uk.

Asda

Asda is selling a 500ml tub of Ben & Jerry's Caramel Chew Chew for just £2. That's a fair bit cheaper than a same-sized tub of HaagenDazs Dulche de Leche which is priced at £3.75.

Tesco

You could buy a pack of 3 Cadbury Dairy Milk Ice Cream Bars (110 ml each) for just £1. By contrast, a pack of 3 Quality Streetthe Big Green Triangles (100 ml each) costs £1.99 a throw.

Tesco is also offering 5 fruit and veg items at half price each week at the moment.

Sainsbury

Sainsbury is selling a pack of 3 Magnum White bars (or Magnum Classic) for £1 (normal price £1.79). This works out at 27.8p per 100 ml. That's a great price when compared to a pack of 4 Cadbury Dream bars which cost £2.49 (56.6p per 100ml.)

And finally, Sainsbury is offering 25% off New Zealand wine.

That's it for this week. If you spot any cracking bargains out there, tell your fellow Fools on our Money Saving Tips discussion board.
