Wednesday's Top Money-Saving Tips
Check out the latest high street and online offers and money saving deals.
Here's the second edition of our new daily money-saving tips column. Let's start with the bargains we've added today (Tuesday):
We kick off with some good deals from Somerfield. The supermarket currently has lots of half-price deals on fruit and veg, meat, chilled goods and plenty of other groceries. These include 2kg of Maris Piper potatoes for £1, fresh boneless large pork leg at £2.50 per kg, and Italian-style pizzas (margherita/double pepperoni) at £1.54 each.
Take a friend to the cinema for free with Dixons: spend over £399 at the online store and you can claim a `2 for 1' Vue cinema card to use throughout 2008.
If you're looking for smart Christmas outfits for your sprogs, try Adams Kids -- the chain is currently offering 25 per cent off childrens' partywear.
If it's time for your regular eye test, considering registering online with Vision Express. You'll get a voucher entitling you to a half-price eye examination, and one giving ten per cent off prescription glasses.
And finally, BHS is currently offering £5 off all online orders over £35.
Here are those offers which continue to be valid:
Books -- Everyone loves a good book, and if you sign up to the Borders email you'll be sent a voucher worth 20% off your next purchase in-store.
Toys -- Boots and Marks & Spencer have their usual 3 for 2 offer on toys and gifts this Christmas -- and as Boots is giving £1 to Children in Need for every toy sold you can be doing some good at the same time. Don't forget to check out the Advantage Point machines in-store to see if there are any further offers you could be benefitting from.
Early Learning Centre also has some great discounts on its toys at the moment -- including a third off its "Luxury Dolls Mansion", and £12.50 off its "Whizz Around Garage" (now £25).
Head over to Debenhams to take advantage of their pre-Christmas sale -- it'll be offering 25% off all items in-store from 21-23 November. And John Lewis is offering free delivery on anything ordered online at the moment.
Tesco is offering 25% off all wine and champagne when you buy six bottles or more.
Nectar is continuing its special Christmas offers, with this week's deal being 50% off MyVu iPod glasses, the Samsung mini camcorder (now 18,850 points) and the Sony DVD player for 12,950 points.
Pet food -- On a slightly different note, Vet UK is now offering free P&P not only on medicines, but also now offers a free, 48-hour courier delivery service for pet food, too.
Christmas Accommodation -- If you're likely to be visiting friends and family over the festive season and need somewhere to stay, check out Travelodge -- it's offering thousands of rooms for just £19 per night (but you'll need to book before 1 December).
