Now We Know How to successfully master the art of sale shopping. Let’s
By now you know my feelings about shopping the sales. I need to be strict and experience has taught me it is essential to stand firm. Sure, buying on a whim is fun for a moment but the time it takes to disentangle the ‘mistakes’ is far more annoying.
50% of sale shopping is about luck and 50% about skill but with close attention, there are some good opportunities to be had. This time of year, I focus on stocking up on the new season basics and replace those pieces that need a freshen up.
My mind is just out of summer mode and trying to pre-empt new winter styles so Cyber Week sales always come in at the perfect time. I spend hours perusing online to find us the best deals and the one clear light bulb moment I have is to use my strategy.
Remember These Top Tips
Break the sale shopping into segments; this makes navigating far less harrowing.
Start by re-assessing the wardrobe and replacing some of the classics.
Check on the accessories; the bags, the luggage and any of the practical pieces I could do with smartening up a bit.
Dip into the lingerie and shapewear. Look for replacements you know work.
Buy what you already like. Replace the old with the new. Invest in sale time; cost per wear is the best. Buy the classics; they aren’t boring but good value. Return if need be; when in doubt, vote out.
Buy the unfamiliar. Try and reinvent a whole new you. Choose because the price is right; the piece must be right. Grow into or squeeze into; it never happens. Don’t be put off by too much choice.
Take a deep breath, read the above and streamline the basket. xv
