I don’t know about you but I LOVE a bargain. Always have and no doubt always will. There is something so alluring about finding an item which has been hugely discounted and that smug feeling of satisfaction that you saved maybe 50 or 75% off the original RRP! Of course, it does mean that in my time I have bought several items which I may have only worn once or maybe not at all but I just had to have it at the time because it was such a bargain! (please tell me I am not alone in doing this??)
*ahem*
Anyway, as I was saying searching for knock down priced items on the internet can be hard unless you know where to look. I like the convenience of being informed about such offers by email allowing me the chance to see what is avilable and then decide whether or not to click on the links and investigate further. This is what I like about Bespoke Offers , a new site that you sign up to (which simply takes a few minutes or you can just sign up with youyr facebook account) and then every day they send you notifications of new discounts that they think may be of interest to you
Clearly Bespoke Offers know me well as my offers for today include an indulgent chocolate discount lol!
I was invited by Bespoke Offers to have a go at using their site and being allowed to choose an offer that was of interest to me. As I mentioned before, joining the site is very easy and ony takes minutes and then you are shown the newest discounts that are available. I was torn between saving up to 50% off The White Company or 70% from Habitat (there were others but these were the two I was torn between). In the end I went with Habitat as I do love their designs and wanted to inject some new colour and life into my kitchen, as most of the items I owe are, well mis-matched to say the least and old (and not in a shabby chic or vintage / retro way either!).
I chose some new mugs, some matching storage jars, a tea pot (something I have never owned in all my life to date) and a new kitchen bin (in red!) as my old one was broken.
They are just gorgeous aren’t they? And as soon as I have painted my kitchen walls (possibly , in fact more than likely now with one of the colours featured in the Freda design – that is the one shown on the storage jars and mugs) these items will be taking pride of place in it ready to help make it look more beautiful, and grown up (well I am one afterall!).
Now had I bought all of these items from Habitat via their website they would have cost me £140 in total. However, going through the link shown on Bespoke Offers website, I was given £2 off each storage jar, £1 off each mug and £10 off the bin (I do not know the reduction on the tea pot as I originally ordered a cake stand but it was out of stock). So those reductions alone meant a saving of £28.
Bespoke Offers updates its offers daily and it features a wealth of well known brands and shops to tempt you to want to explore and buy some bargains. You also have an option on the site to select your location to allow you to recieve offers which are local to you. Why not take a look for yourself and see what you can save?

I was allowed to choose some items in return for writing this article, and I cannot wait to use them (hint hint to my OH to get on and paint the kitchen!)
