For me a bargain is only a bargain if the item is something you really need or had intended buying anyway. Sales encourage impulse buying and that to me is wasting money.
Quite right Meg. Some of the people interviewed for the lunchtime news had gone shopping without anything in particular in mind, they were just after a bargain whether or not they really wanted the item............crazy.
I had a bit of luck however, this week I've booked two holidays for next summer. Today I received an email from Columbus insurance say that they were knocking 20% off of travel insurance over the next 48 hours. I checked their price against the company I normally use and they were cheaper so I've taken it out for those two holidays.
