Aldo's Spring/Summer 09 Collection
I love a bit of a bargain, but hey what girl doesn't? These days, it seems really fashionable to be in the voucher market. It's hardly possible to speak to someone these days without the mention of a freebie here or the latest discount grab at so and so or which websites offer the best bargain and discount vouchers. So, this weekend I'm personally going to try this out for myself. I have sat down for the past two hours and managed to secure a complimentary bottle of wine at Cafe Rouge which you get when you sign up to their Cafe Society after which you will be on their list for future events or discounts they may have in the future.
Then I managed to secure a 2 for 1 meal also at Cafe Rouge but this time by purchasing the April Issue of Sainsbury's magazine. To be honest with you this to me is not much of a bargain as the terms and conditions specify that the cheapest meal will be for free and so this will mean my son's meal which is a cheap thing anyway. But hey, I don't want to be raining on my own parade and I tell myself that I am new at this.
From eating to shopping, I have also secured a 10% off voucher on my next visit to Aldo or by shopping in their online store. A woman can never be too thin or have too many shoes so I am sure I will be using this with glee as I've got to have me those great heels for Spring/Summer 09. All I had to do was subscribe to their newsletter (yup, another online subscription) and voila the discount. To complete it all off, Reiss sent me a beautiful email today stating that to their loyal and subscribed customers they are offering two complimentary alterations with my tailoring purchase. So a tailoring for me and one for hubby thrown in for good measure. I am an angel.
As this Sunday holds no real plans except that I have to take my son to a two hour birthday bash, it seems like Sunday is going to be ideal for reading. So, I logged on to WHSmith to see what they could offer me and tada if you sign up for their Privilege Club you instantly get £20 worth of vouchers to spend in store or online and from then on you receive a £10 voucher every month with their newsletter. I cannot be happier. Bless.
So, my first attempt seems promising (or so I think) and I am sure I will become better adjusted to this. The idea is not to stop spending or to stop going out because times are difficult but to have fun, spend money but maybe more prudently. However, the real downfall? The amount of newsletters in that inbox. I think I should set up a new account. Though admittedly a small price to pay for a shopaholic. No?
