Updated on 16 December 2008 | 0 Comments

Here are some more money saving tips to help you save in the run-up to Christmas.

As the end of the week approaches, here are the latest money saving tips to get your teeth sunk into:

Warehouse is offering 20% off all online orders made between 24th November - 3rd December. Enter the promotional code FRIEND at the checkout to qualify.

For all Frasercard holders, House of Fraser is offering 25% off many popular brand names, together with triple points today only when you pay with your Frasercard. However, for anyone tempted by this offer for future promotions, it's worth highlighting that the Frasercard has a typical APR of 19.9%. As discussed in The Worst Xmas Shopping Rip Off Ever, if you don't pay off your balance each month, this discount may actually end up costing you far more than it saves you.

Argos is offering a £5 gift voucher if you spend £50 in-store or online. If you splash out £100 or more, you will be rewarded with a £10 voucher.

Finally, Curry's is offering 20% off selected large screen TVs. You can shop online, instore or even reserve the item online and collect it in store. The world is your oyster!
