Top prizes to WIN!

Discounts aren’t just for tech — UK fashion retailers and brands are also offering some of the season’s best bargains this week. From winter coats and handbags to beauty gift sets and jewellery, there are deals to suit a variety of tastes and budgets. Many stores have reduced prices on leather jackets, boots, knitwear, and other seasonal wardrobe staples, giving shoppers a chance to upgrade their closets without overspending.

Popular UK retailers, both high street and online, have joined in the extended sales period. Some fashion items that were part of Black Friday or Cyber Monday offers remain on discount, while others are newly added as stores clear stock ahead of the holiday season. Shoppers can also find deals on accessories like scarves, gloves, handbags, and even watches — perfect for gifting or treating yourself.

With the holidays fast approaching, this week is an ideal time to grab winter wardrobe essentials or pick up thoughtful gifts. Many items are available at a fraction of their usual price, making it possible to stock up on gifts or refresh your style without breaking the bank. Whether it’s a statement coat, a designer bag, or a festive beauty set, now is the moment to shop smart and save.

Cutting back doesn’t always mean 'don’t spend' — it means 'spend smarter'. Here are some quick wins:

• Review subscriptions. Audio, streaming, gym, apps: if you’re not using them regularly, cancel or downgrade.

• Switch and save. Energy, broadband, insurance — many providers offer discounts for new customers or switching.

• Use vouchers for essentials. When buying groceries, toiletries or home goods look for vouchers or clear-out deals.

Deals to know this week:

• On LatestDeals you’ll find everyday items (home, hygiene, food & drink) listed at bargain prices — sometimes 50% off or more.

• Amazon’s “Today’s Deals” hub is worth a check for essentials you need anyway — if you find them discounted, and you were already going to buy, that’s extra savings.

By applying these steps to regular bills + essentials, you’ll free up more money for fun or savings.

Your 20s are the foundation for lifelong financial security. Start building smart habits now, and you’ll save yourself years of stress later.

1. Start Budgeting Early
Use apps like YNAB or Mint to understand your cash flow. Awareness is step one to control.

2. Build an Emergency Fund
Aim for three months of expenses—it’s your safety net when life throws curveballs.

3. Avoid Lifestyle Inflation
As your income grows, resist the urge to upgrade everything. Bank the difference instead.

4. Invest Now, Not Later
Even small, consistent investments in ETFs or retirement accounts can snowball over time.

5. Learn to Negotiate
Whether it’s your salary, rent, or bills—negotiation skills directly impact your financial future.

Your 30-year-old self will thank you for every good decision you start today. Small, smart steps now equal big peace of mind later.

Big savings don’t always come from cutting out the big stuff—sometimes it’s the daily choices that really add up. Here are seven small changes that can quietly save you hundreds (or even thousands) over a year:

1. Brew your own coffee. A £5 daily latte costs £1,825 a year. Making coffee at home can cut that by 90%.

2. Cancel unused subscriptions. Streaming, apps, and memberships often renew silently. Review your accounts monthly and cut what you don’t use.

3. Meal plan and grocery shop with a list. This reduces food waste and unnecessary impulse buys.

4. Switch off phantom power. Devices left plugged in still draw electricity. Unplug chargers, use smart power strips, and watch your bill drop.

5. Buy second-hand first. Thrift shops, online marketplaces, and community swap groups are goldmines. You’ll save and reduce waste.

6. Use cashback and rewards programs. Whether it’s credit card perks or loyalty apps, don’t leave free money on the table—but use them responsibly.

7. Negotiate bills. Internet, phone, insurance, even medical bills—many providers will give you a discount if you ask.

The takeaway: None of these habits feel extreme, but together they can make a massive difference. Saving money isn’t always about sacrifice—it’s often about awareness.
