4 Winter Survival Tips You Can’t Live Without

Ah, winter. When it’s not here, we long for it but when it is here, we can’t help moaning about it. So just like pretty much every season in the British calendar then. But winter is a little bit different than every other season because it brings with it Christmas festivities and all the highs and lows they signify. So, if you’re finding yourself flagging in the cold or overwhelmed by the burdens of December, here are a few tips on how to survive the winter and everything it can throw at you…

Choose the Right Soundtrack

A Christmas song can make or break a mood – start playing them too early and they can have the opposite effect, but choose an absolute Christmas banger and it can get you through those particularly tough days and weeks and give you something to look forward to. In fact, the same rule applies for those classic Christmas films too. But back to the music – if you’re going to make a Christmas playlist, make it a good one, and over on our blog we’ve put together a list of the very best tunes as well as some Zavvi voucher codes with 10% off if you want to compile an actual collection with some actual Christmas records.

Prepare Yourself for a Cold Snap

No, we’re not talking an adequate supply of thermals (also that’s also advisable), but rather making sure you have all the provision necessary to de-ice your car when you’re caught short and have to get somewhere pretty darn quickly. On our winter survival blog post you’ll find Micks Garage promo codes with money off to help you stock up on your winter car care products as well as some other tips on how to get over the worst winter has to offer.

Get to Grips with Christmas Partywear

Is there a more trying issue at this time of year than what to wear to your Christmas work party? Getting the balance just right can get you on the right track for a memorable evening, but on the flip side, you could be the talking point for all the wrong reasons. Or you could just not care what anyone thinks! Whatever your opinion on the stresses of choosing your Christmas partywear, we’ve got some festive Debenhams discount vouchers in our party season blog post to help you save on perhaps one of the widest choices of Christmas party dresses available in the UK.

Find the Right Footwear

Having wet feet at any time is an annoyance, but in the winter you can multiply this annoyance by a million. Somehow the freezing cold puddle water always manages to find its way in, whether that’s because there’s a sneaky hole in your soles or you just haven’t spent the few extra pounds required for waterproof shoes or boots. But don’t fret because in our winter survival post this week we’ve featured Brantano discount codes with 30% off to help you invest in some suitable footwear, so fill your boots. Or rather, don’t.

Even if you’re winter’s biggest fan, you have to admit it throws us a few curve balls on occasion and we’re not just talking what to buy your father-in-law for Christmas. But if you stay on top of things, you might actually start to enjoy what winter has to offer for a change…

3 Ways to Prepare for Black Friday Weekend

Any serious shopper knows that this weekend is one of the most important of the year, but how do you prepare yourself for Black Friday and Cyber Monday so you get a genuine bargain and not end up with something completely useless and not particularly good value? The most important thing you can do is get organised, and this means less spontaneous shopping and more research…

Don’t Wait to Buy

One point to remember is that you don’t necessarily have to wait until Black Friday – if there’s something that you really want or need and it’s on a great offer right now, then what’s stopping you? Ok, so you could hold out for a better price, but a) this might not actually happen and b) if it does happen, there’s a chance a lot of other people might have the same idea as you and said product could sell out quite quickly.

It’s all about weighing up the pros and cons, but if you do decide to play it safe and place that order before Black Friday, we’ve put together a few early Black Friday and Cyber Monday-themed blog posts with some of the best offers available right now including The Body Shop voucher codes that save you £25 when you spend £50 or more until the end of the month. And even if some have expired already, it gives a great idea as to what retailers you need to keep an eye on come the weekend…

Set a Realistic Budget

Whether you’re shopping for Christmas, bargain homeware or the biggest TV you’re ever seen in your entire life, be realistic about how much you’re going to spend. With all the best intentions in the world, many of us might go a bit overboard on Black Friday or Cyber Monday, so take a look at exactly how much you can afford to spend so you don’t end up with any nasty surprises on your bank statement or credit card bill.

If you’ve got a specific product in mind, then see what they have in stock now, and try and take a guess at how much discount might be available come Black Friday. Alternatively, you could use Hughes discount vouchers and Joules promo codes to see how much they’re definitely knocking off with their deals, and if you don’t want to miss out, well see previous point…

Clear Some Space for Those Deliveries

If you want to do all your pre-Christmas sale shopping online, ideally by taking advantage of those plentiful Cyber Monday deals, then you need to do some logistical preparation in terms of deliveries. Luckily many major retailers now offer a number of different delivery options with nominated days and times available. But if you’re ordering from more than one site, then make sure you don’t have all those deliveries spread across an entire week, not unless you want to spend rather a long time picking up parcels from post offices and neighbours.

You also need to consider where you’re going to put everything, if you need to hide things away before Christmas. Organise a spot where you can quickly whisk away those parcels and you’ll find yourself with one less thing to worry about in the lead up to Christmas.

So if you are planning a Black Friday or Cyber Monday shopping spree, plan ahead to make sure you get the very best out of it and end up with a genuine bargainous bounty.

3 Reasons November Isn’t as Bad as You Might Think

November is one of those in-between months that you just want to get out of the way so all the fun can start again. Summer is long gone, Halloween is over, and with the exception of Bonfire Night weekend, there’s not a huge amount to look forward until we get to December. Ok, so a lot of shops would love us to start buying those Christmas presents right now, but we are creatures of habit and realistically we’re always going to leave the bulk of them until a week before the big day, right?

But November does have some good stuff in store, we promise. And here’s the proof!

Say Hello to Hygge

You may have seen this word a few times in the last couple of weeks and there’s very good reason for this. Those Danes already know that winter is the best time of year, so much so that they came up with their very own word to signify all that is good about it. Hygge (pronounced hoo-gah) is a concept that doesn’t have a direct, succinct English translation, but in general terms it means relishing in the cosiness of winter, making your surroundings as snug as possible and enjoying good food with friends. All preferable to venturing out in the cold we think you’ll agree. Over on our site blog we can help you achieve peak hygge as well as use House of Fraser discount vouchers to save on some very hygge-friendly faux fur rugs.

Fun with Winter Fashion

We might be wrong, but we’re guessing most people prefer shopping for the winter rather than the summer. It’s so much more forgiving for starters. But those long-held winter fashion rules (you know the ones we mean – no tights and sandals, no bold colours etc etc) don’t really apply anymore and when it comes to winter, it’s pretty much open season to be creative and indulge you own personal style preferences. In our guide on how to break those winter fashion rules, we’ve included links to our New Look voucher codes to help you on your way so you don’t have to supress those colourful urges any longer!

We All Deserve a Spa Treat

We don’t think it’s any coincidence that National Spa Week falls in the month of November because never has there been a better time of year to take a break and relax for an afternoon, or even a few days. Apart from perhaps January. But there’s nothing stopping you booking another post-Christmas break, right? Find the best current deals using the Red Letter Days promo codes featured on our National Spa Week post and you might find you can afford multiple spa treats to spread throughout the year, or throughout winter at the very least.

So you see, November isn’t all bad. In fact, it’s shaping up to be a rather good month indeed, especially if you choose to mark it with the combination of a home full of hygge goodness, a colourful winter coat and an afternoon at the spa.

4 Ways to Enjoy the Longer Winter Evenings

You may or may not have realised that this weekend the clocks go back. Yes, just in time for all those Halloween parties! But after the fun is over, this also means dark mornings and long winter evenings lie ahead until March. Yay. But it’s not doom and gloom – in fact, we think you should look on this as an opportunity rather than an obstacle. There are plenty of ways you can make the most of long winter evenings and here are just a few ideas to see you through until the spring…

Bake Up a Storm

This week see’s the last ever final of The Great British Bake Off to feature on the BBC and let’s just say as a nation, we’re not too happy about it. But picking up a spatula yourself and turning on that oven will at least go some of the way to filling the BBC Bake Off hole in your life. We put together a blog post with a number of different baking tips as well as some Ocado voucher codes to help you out with the cost of ingredients, and there’s even tips on where to find the best mug cake recipes because let’s face, baking can be a bit of an effort.

Treat Yourself to Some New Bedding

There’s only one thing better than sleeping under newly-laundered sheets and that’s sleeping under brand new sheets AND a brand new duvet. This is because a cold, dark winter’s evening is the best possible time to curl up under a new duvet with a higher tog count, or perhaps even invest in some eiderdown. Our blog post give you some more reasons as to why we should be looking forward to winter as well as the latest Slumber Slumber discount vouchers to save on that winter bedding.

More Leisure Time

Does anyone actually enjoy leaving the house in the cold weather? If someone calls to cancel plans, can we honestly say we disappointed at the thought of not having to venture outside? Of course not. Because winter leisure time is all about staying indoors and catching up on your favourite books, TV shows, films and music. Which is exactly how it should be.  

Halloween and Bonfire Night

The double whammy of autumnal celebrations doesn’t exactly ease us into winter, but rather give us a slightly scary shove (in the most jovial way possible). Every year Halloween seems to be more and more popular and no doubt in ten years’ time we’ll have caught up with the level of Halloween madness that takes place across the Atlantic. For those of you who fall squarely in the pro-Halloween camp, we put together a post about all the great things to look forward too when Halloween approaches, including some Angels Fancy Dress promo codes to help you perfect that costume.

So even if you plan on not getting out of your bed for the next few months, there’s still plenty to celebrate about the impending winter season. And if you’re still dreading it, well then, just think about Christmas – not long to go now!

Enjoy our summer voucher codes whether at home or abroad

We’re aiming to squeeze every last drop of value out of the summer fun and this week it’s the turn of sunglasses, outdoor toys and European city breaks – all important summer essential we think you’ll agree.

Sunglasses Savings Galore                     

                                          

Last Monday was International Sunglasses Day and we celebrated in style with a special sunglasses blog post, because an item that provides not only instant style but also instant eye protection is well worth celebrating in our opinion. Along with offers from Sunglass Hut and Specky Four Eyes, we found a Glasses Shop UK promotional code that got you 30% off their sunglasses. With their prices already very reasonable, this Glasses Shop UK coupon code is an excellent budget option for everyone who wants those stylish frames and eye protection without paying for a designer label in the process.

Duplay Discount Codes for Outdoor Fun

What’s the easiest way to keep your children amused over the summer holidays? Why, put them on a trampoline of course! Don’t have a trampoline? Well, now is the perfect time to buy and not just because of the weather. This week we put together a special outdoor and garden toys post that contains some fabulous Duplay discount codes for all your trampoline requirements because with up to 50% off some of their many models, they can make that large trampoline so much more affordable for so many.

Experience the great outdoors in many different ways with this week’s voucher codes

What do the latest Marks and Spencer voucher codes, Dogalogue coupon codes and MissPap promo codes have in common? The can all help you put a new spin on outdoor fun in three very different ways, that’s what. The average dinner party-thrower, dog-lover and festival-goer might not seem to be too similar on first glance, but on our blog this week we’ve explored a few different ways in which these online savings can help all of the above experience the great outdoors in many different ways…

Outdoor Dining Marks and Spencer Voucher Codes

Let’s start with the most obvious outdoor option shall we? When we stare out the kitchen window during those winter days, we dream of enjoying a bit of alfresco dining come June, but with only a shabby old patio set available, you might not do it quite as often as you’d like. However, over on our outdoor dining blog post this week, we featured some excellent Marks and Spencer voucher codes that save you 20% on selected stylish outdoor dining items, but that’s not all. We also appreciate that not everyone is about the posh decking and outdoor buffet, so we’ve also sourced savings from Joules for classy picnicware and The White Company for some atmospheric outdoor lighting. So take advantage of these Marks and Spencer voucher codes and other savings before the dark evenings start to draw in again.

Fantastic Festival Fashion

If you’ve been enjoying the Glastonbury coverage from the comfort of your own home over the weekend, it’s not too late to book yourself a real life festival experience later on in the summer. But as well as wellies and a waterproof tent, you also require some suitable festival fashion, and these days online savings such as the latest MissPap coupon codes cater very well for this specific requirement. Not only do they have a dedicated festival fashion page, but you can also use these MissPap discount codes (as featured in our festival fashion blog post) to get 10% off your order. And in the aforementioned blog post, we’ve also sourced festival deals from Rock My Vintage and Motel rocks to cover a wide variety of different fashion tastes.

Everyone’s Favourite Furry Friend

This week saw the UK’s National Bring Your Dog to Work Day, but don’t worry if you missed out because as all good dog-owners know, there’s really no need for a special day to treat your pooch. To celebrate this annual occasion, we put together a selection of online doggy savings in our National Bring Your Dog to Work Day blog post covering top quality food, toys and treats for both owner and pet with the latest Dogalogue promomtional codes. And did you know that using Dogalogue discount vouchers means your money goes towards The Guide Dogs for the Blond Association? Well, now you do, and that’s even more of an incentive to use them!

The outdoors isn’t for everyone, but with these Marks and Spencer voucher codes, MissPap discount vouchers and Dogalogue promo codes, we can certainly cater for a large section of the outdoor-loving population. Come back next week for even more summer-themed saving and ideas that could help you appreciate the great outdoors even more…

It’s All About the Summer Savings

Yes, with our Fashion World voucher codes, as well as many other current savings, we’re 100% summer this week. The hot weather is officially here (apart from the odd rainy day), so there’s no excuse not to stock up on the last of those summer essentials, or even book a last minute dream holiday in some faraway destination. Over on the My Favourite Voucher Codes blog we’ve been researching the latest summer savings covering everything from summer haircare to long haul holidays, so we reckon you’re bound to find something you need over the next few months right here…

Summer Fashion for Curvy Figures

There’s no reason for anyone to cover up in the warm weather, and over on our blog post for plus size summer fashion, we found some excellent items that combine both cutting edge style and value for money. As well as savings from well-known high street names like New Look (did you know that do a plus size range?), there are plenty of deals from lesser known online specialists too, a great example of which are the latest Fashion World voucher codes that can save you 20% on your first order. This retailer covers sizes from 12-34, meaning that these Fashion World voucher codes really do have something for everyone, and when that ‘something’ is a huge range of stylish summer clothes to suit even the most die-hard of fashionistas, then all the better.

Summer Haircare Tips and Savings

All this hot weather is fantastic for you sun worshippers out there, but spare the occasional thought (and conditioning treatment) for your precious locks, which will inevitably struggle in the heat. In our summer haircare blog post, not only have we put together some top conditioning tips for keep your hair in the best shape possible, but we’ve got haircare promotional codes and discount vouchers a-plenty that can help you save on some of your favourite premium haircare brands including L’Oreal Professionel and Moroccanoil.

Who have thought it? Actually, while we’re talking travel, we’d like to swap the rather dreary term ‘long haul’ for something altogether more exciting – ‘dream destination’. So to book that ‘dream destination’ trip to the Caribbean, Florida, Mauritius or Costa Rica (as well as many other locations), have a look and save with those lastminute.com coupon codes along with other savings from Thomas Cook and First Choice Holidays.

Over on our blog we’ve gather together a few savings ideas that might help you narrow down your options…

3 Ways You Can Save Money This Spring

New seasons often mean spending more money, but our latest Soak and Sleep voucher codes, Baker Ross promotional codes and New Look discount vouchers mean that spending big isn’t necessarily inevitable. We’ve uncovered 3 different ways you can save on those spring essentials (and in some cases, luxuries) if you take advantage of some current online savings, as well as get a few ideas for some springtime inspiration…

New Clothes

Yes, it’s time to shed the knee high boots, winter coats and woolly jumpers, but where do you find the money to replace them all with something a little less chunky? Well, we can’t help you with winning the lottery, but we can point you in the direction of a few online savings to use in the next few days. As well as a very useful New Look voucher code that’s valid over the Easter Weekend, our spring fashions blog post over on My Favourite Voucher Codes can also help you save with other retailers, with discount codes for both Miss Selfridge and La Redoute.

You don’t have to go the whole hog and invest in a new bed (although there are plenty of coupon codes out there that can help you) – ring in the spring with a new bedspread, or instead of kicking off the covers in the warmer weather, make your sleep that bit more comfortable with a lighter tog rating on your duvet.

So if you want to save this spring, check in regularly with our blog as well as the latest Soak and Sleep promo codes, New Look coupon codes and Baker Ross discount codes, so you won’t miss out on any more springtime essentials over the next few months.

Valentine's Gift Ideas Galore

It’s the thought that counts, and because Superdrug voucher codes, Argos voucher codes and Lovehearts.com voucher codes are so good right now, we can also admit that the cost counts a little bit too, especially for those spending the money. As much as we love to splash out on our loved ones on Valentine’s Day, a homemade gift can also be very much appreciated, so why not combine the two and give both this year? Here are a few pointers if you need some further inspiration…

First off, the big gesture, the romantic, the traditional, the dare we say it, safe bet Valentine’s gifts. Yes, we talking perfume, getaways and treats galore. For example, if you want to save money on the perfect fragrance for your loved one then our blog post not only contains Superdrug discount vouchers but also ideas on classic Valentine’s gifts such as spa days, romantic meals and the perfect accessories from top online retailers such as Boohoo. Depending on how you look at it, Valentine’s Day can be a gift buying challenge, or the easiest celebration of the year when it comes to choosing a present, so don’t dismiss a perfume-tastic Superdrug voucher code out of hand – using it could be the best thing you do this February.

So what about the more personalised Valentine’s gifts? Well, you have a couple of options. More than a couple of options in fact. Firstly, for those of you who a terrified of the thought of making your own Valentine’s gift, please take a look at this blog post, we beg of you. It contains a couple of ideas if you’re lacking in inspiration and/or creative skill, and our favourite homemade gift is more than achievable with an empty jar and a LoveHearts.com coupon code. Yes, you heard correctly, because with that extra special Valentine’s LoveHearts.com voucher code, you can enjoy 20% off your Love Hearts order, and what could be a better Valentine’s present than a pretty jar filled with romantic retro sweets?

If you’re feeling extra creative, take further inspiration from our special blog post on how to upcycle old clothing. You might not think that an old pair of jeans is much of a Valentine’s gift, but think again. Ok, so perhaps not the old jeans, but what about decorating a T-shirt with some cute stencils or prints? Or converting that old red or pink woolly jumper into a lovely Valentine’s cushion? With the help of an Argos discount voucher that can save you money on a new sewing machine, you can get to work on your romantic creations, as well as a few choice garments for yourself. And in addition to that Argos discount code, there are also savings to be had from Hobbycraft and Baker Ross for all those great value extra tools and materials.

Don’t worry – you’ve still got a couple of weeks to make a decision about your romantic gift (and then act upon it), but in the meantime, let’s see if these Superdrug voucher codes, LoveHearts.com voucher codes and Argos voucher codes don’t give you some food for thought…

Winter Activities Round Up

Sometimes winter isn’t much fun, but we’ve got Chocolate Trading Company voucher codes, B&Q voucher codes and Blacks voucher codes to cheer you up in many varied and interesting ways, and not all of them require staying indoors. So whether your favourite winter past time involves sitting your backside and using up no energy whatsoever (and there is nothing wrong with this in the slightest), or filling your lungs with fresh (cold) air and taking in your surroundings, we’re bound to have an idea for you…

What’s your favourite hot beverage? We’re guessing in the winter months many of you might opt for a hot chocolate or two (or three), but if you don’t want to waste your taste buds on a sub-standard mug of the stuff, find out how to create the very best hot chocolate you can with our blog post. As well as those useful hot chocolate tips and tricks, we’ve got Chocolate Trading Company voucher codes so you can save on the very best quality ingredients and even discounts to help you purchase the perfect mug for your comforting drink. So if you want to buy the finest quality dark chocolate with a Chocolate Trading Company discount voucher or just need to know all the hot chocolate secrets then look no further.

One common New Year’s resolution is to adopt a healthier diet, but this doesn’t have to mean dramatic changes left right and centre - after all, it’s now common knowledge that crash diets are the opposite of what constitutes ‘healthy’. This week we put together a blog post on how to prepare easy healthy snacks, with a few Holland and Barratt discount vouchers and other online savings to help you on your way. Take a look and find out how to make the best use of rice cakes, nuts, celery sticks and yoghurt with the least fuss possible, then stock up on said healthy snack items with help from those Holland and Barratt coupon codes as well as other discounts from Ocado and Sainsburys.

Talking of New Year’s resolutions, there are a few that crop up every single year, yet many of us fall at the first hurdle (that hurdle being January of course). Attempting to quit a smoking habit must be one of the most common AND important, and with the aid of electronic cigarettes offers such as Smoko Electronic Cigarettes discount codes, online suppliers are an increasing source of help at this time of year. Our recent blog post contains plenty of ideas as to how you can stick to those popular New Year’s resolutions as well as a few of those online offers we mentioned including not only the Smoko Electronic Cigarettes promotional codes, but also deals for gyms and travel discounts for those looking to expand their horizons in 2016.

If you work from home, you won’t want to miss our brand new blog post that focuses on how you can organise that home office space to increase your productivity and reduce stress levels, something that is always welcome we think you’ll agree. Another thing that’s always welcome is an online saving and if you’re in need if a new desk lamp or office accessory with which to complete that organisation, we’ve included an Argos promo code that saves you 20% on all homeware items when you spend £20 or more. If you need larger items (such as that all important desk), as well as the Argos voucher code, there are also discounts from Homebase and Ryman.

So whatever new leaf you which to turn over this January (whether it involves shifting a few pieces of scrap paper off your desk or binning those ciggies), there are Holland and Barratt voucher codes, Smoko Electronic Cigarettes voucher codes and Argos voucher codes that can help.
