Guest Editor Shine By Three: Shop Savvy Online Sales Part 1

  /  1 year ago  /  56 Comments

Margaret from Shine by Three lets us in on her top online shopping tips!

The assumption that I live behind my computer screen is probably not too far from the truth, so it’s also a reasonable assumption that I do most of my shopping online (free shipping, come at me). I have friends who literally go through every item in an online sale and then spend hours sifting through their Shopping Cart. Margaret and BWA to the rescue: master online sales with these (almost) foolproof steps.

Meant to be. As tempting as it can be to shop every online store at the same time, how are you going to justify buying more sale piece when the next round of online sales inevitably come around in two weeks? I do the Soulmate test:

Step 1: Bookmark everything you have your eye on across all the online stores that take your fancy.

Step 2: Don’t look at them until there’s a sale going on.

Step 3: If it’s still there in your size, some greater force wants you and your chosen product to start a beautiful friendship. If it’s not, have a cry and bake a cake.

Gjenia 1 year ago If it's not left in your size, your fave colour, or anything else that puts you off a little, it's not meant to be and you'll regret buying it :) (Which is pretty much what Margs said but I reworded it)
