From bargain book hunters to furniture lovers alike, here's some more money saving tips to give your wallet a January boost.
As January presses on, here's some more money saving tips to give you a helping hand for the New Year.
If you like to curl up with a good book at night, why not check out Blackwell Online, which is offering 50% off on all Oxford World's Classics at the moment.
Sticking with the book theme, bargain book site Dusty Covers sells a wide variety of new and ex-display books and audio CDs, most of which are priced at just £2.99. In addition, there's free delivery on all purchases.
Looking to jazz up your iPod? If so, UKDVDR is offering a massive 75% off Griffin iPod accessories. Look carefully at the cases you are buying however, as several are designed for the older generation iPods.
Time Out magazine is offering 64% off a year's subscription at the moment - that's a mighty saving of £91.80. If you sign up now, they'll even throw in a free 2008 diary for good measure. In addition, many of their city guides have 35% slashed off the regular price.
Thinking of sprucing up your bedroom on a budget? Good old IKEA is offering a complete bedroom set for just £179.60. The price includes a bed, two bedside tables, a wardrobe and a three drawer chest from the Aneboda range -- though mattresses are not included.
Finally, Tesco is offering £75 discount on Hotpoint products purchased from Tesco Direct when you take out a home insurance policy. Quote 'hotpoint75' when purchasing your insurance to qualify.
A word of warning though: when I checked the Tesco Direct catalogue, some Hotpoint products were out of stock. Dishwashers, for example, were few and far between, though if you're looking for a fridge or freezer, there's a plethora to choose from.
Offers which continue to be valid:
If you're looking for reduced homeware, you check out the Homebase furniture sale. Beds, cabinets, easy chairs and lots more are now selling at half price.
The Office sale is in full swing, with up to 80% off footwear.
And The Shoe Studio, found at Debenhams and elsewhere, is offering at least 50% off items in its Pied a Terre, Nine West, and Bertie women's ranges.
Here's a good deal for those of you with a Tesco Clubcard. Sign up to any E.On (formerly Powergen) tariff (except the 'AgeConcern' tariffs) and you'll receive 500 Clubcard Points per type of fuel (so 1000 for a Dual Fuel application).
These points will be added to the account when the new supply goes live - and for every £1 spent on gas or electricity thereafter, you'll earn one Clubcard point.
At the time of writing, E.on's tariffs are very competitive - you can find out more and sign up via our our Gas and Electricity Comparison Centre.
Just be aware: E.On, like all the energy companies, will probably raise its prices in the next few months. So instead of switching now, you might want to wait and see how its prices compare after an increase.
The British Airways sale is currently in full swing - check out the deals available on Lastminute.com.
Or are you thinking of travelling by train? Virgin Trains is currently offering bargain fares between London Euston and Manchester Piccadilly. Bookings are currently available up to February 15th, and at the time of writing £7 and £9 tickets are still available.
Here's something a bit different that's been suggested by a Fool reader. Poundbelow is a website which lets you know about UK-based eBay items which have been listed for under a pound.
You can search in particular categories or for particular items, and if you persevere you can make real savings. Just don't end up with lots of stuff you don't really want!
And a real gem from Amazon. The online shopping giant has a little known price drop policy where if they lower the price on something you've bought within the past 30 days, they'll credit you with the difference.
However, as with most things, if you don't ask, you don't get. Check for current prices on the website by looking through all your invoices for the past 30 days.
If you've paid more than the current price, here's how to claim your money back:
1.) Go to the 'Contact Us' section of the website
2.) Go to 'Return and refund questions'
3.) Select 'I have a question about returns that's not listed above'
4.) Sign in
5.) Do as instructed in the above article to claim! Permanent
Just bear in mind - this policy applies only to Amazon sales - not any Marketplace purchases.
For sushi lovers everywhere, Yo! Sushi is offering a whopping 50% off your meal from 14th January 2008. You can get up to 10 plates per person at half price if you register with the site.
For regular rail users, beat the fare hike blues and console yourself with some discounted food. Sign up for a BiTE card and you can get 20% off food and drink at many participating outlets across the country. Registration is as simple as filling out an online form.
And for the food connoisseurs among us, why not sign up to Toptable, where you can earn points by booking restaurant tables through their website. Currently, 6 bookings will earn you a free two or three course meal, with an automatic 200 points for signing up. If you eat out regularly, the points can quickly build up, and there are lots of offers such as 2 for 1 dining available through their regular newsletters.
