Sport and Leasure , where to buy
Are you off to a week skiing and you have practically run out of money before you even start your holiday?!
To avoid breaking the bank, try Decathlon.
Decathlon is an enormous department store where you can find clothing and equipment for every sport you can think of.
If you live in London,you can find Decathlon in Surrey Quays or Lakeside.
The Decathlon own brand is the cheapest, and if it is...
Did you know that.....
Primark menswear has opened late last year inside of Selfridges in Manchester and Birmingham?
Do you know what that means? I will explain with a maths equation:
Selfridges= Supercool
Primark opens into Selfridges
Primark = Supercool
….and supecheap too!!
But we really knew that already!!
If you are a Primark snob…think again, as Primark has certainly got something for you too!

Looking after your nails.........
On our recent business trip to NYC, my collegue treated me to a quick mancure at $10 dollars in Greenwich Village. A fantastic treat that makes me miss NYC even more.
But do not be discouraged, you do not have to go all the way to New York to have a great manicure at a bargain price……….
just get a bus to Walworth Road SE17 , not far from East St Market, and you will find 2...
Oooops.....

I could be getting addicted to writing the blog! So please, if notbody bothers reading it….please let me know, so I put my energy into doing something else…..like reading a book or knitting a snood!
Today I finished work at 6pm and then went around on the high street for you…..no pressure!
The fact is, that this month, after my gorgeous holiday in Mexico, I can only look but...
Better on the High Street or better on the web?
When you shop for something on line you espect to pay the same price you would pay in store plus a little more for postage and packaging right?……wrong!
Here are 2 examples:
- Gap is generally more expensive on line than in the shops! At least for Sale garments….
An example is the Black romper suit in the photo that is 9.99 in store with another 25% off in store, while it is...
IF YOU HAVE NOT DONE IT YET.......
….Get yourself down to your nearest Gap.
A large Gap is preferred. If it is not in a busy and trendy area….even better! It means that customers do not recognise a bargain and end up leaving the best ones on the rails!
My favourite Gap is the Knightsbridge Gap in London.
Yes it is a busy and trendy area in London, but the average customer….is usually a tourist and never makes...
My mama says.........
I have always loved a bargain!
I remember as a teenager I used to come back from my local market with a gorgeous dress bought for a few pennies. My mum would compliment me, but she used to say: “Do not tell your friends how much you paid for it….it isn’t cool! Just pretend it was as expensive as it looks.” I could never keep the secret! Infact I have always thought that if...
