Let’s face it, January is tough. If you’re yet to have that conversation with your partner about reining in your spending, it’s only a matter of time. We’re now at the stage where we’re popping fuel and food shops on our credit cards and waiting for the relative calm of February.
It’s no wonder that voucher & money-saving sites have taken off, especially given our very British appetite for a sale. You only have to google “Black Friday” or log on to Facebook on the morning of a Next sale, to see just how much we love saving our pennies.
Like tons of Brits, I’m a member of tons of Facebook Groups run by fellow bargain hunters. Yet as these rely on people sharing the deals as they see them, I’m often late to the party and miss the good stuff. As sharing is caring and all that, I have something pretty cool to share…
… I give you Oony.co.uk!
Simply put, Oony helps people spend less on all kinds of products and services. Their goal is to help users get the lowest price, no matter if they are buying just a few groceries at the supermarket, some clothes, or a new fridge. Most of the offers are either voucher codes or deals, which people can find either by brand or store, or by searching for a specific product. They don’t sell products, but rather provide the tools to save, and point users in the right direction.
First things first, this is an easy site to navigate. If you have a specific shop in mind, you can head straight to the Top Stores tab at the top of the screen to see if they have a deal. This is populated as and when the deals happen to ensure you’re always the first-in-the-know. There are literally hundreds of stores to choose from.
Alternatively, if you’re a technology fiend or perfume addict, there’s a handy category page to drill down into what is important to you. Don’t have the time to search? Just bung your product into the search box and hit go.
If voucher codes are more your thing, there’s a handy live feed that allows you click straight through to the store in question. Right now there’s over 2000 vouchers for almost 500 stores up for grabs. Throw in the deals on offer, and that’s a staggering 13,611 deals and vouchers uploaded this week!
I’m also loving the blog what is a radical departure from the usual affiliate blog. Rather than showcase lookbook after lookbook to tempt you into splashing the cash, they’ve really focused on money-saving. There are detailed posts on everything from Tax-Free Shopping to how to travel light and stick within your baggage allowance, there’s nothing that escapes the money-saving treatment.
I’d urge you all to sign up to the newsletter and follow them on the various social media outlets below. The next time your mum asks for Dior Addict for her birthday, or your husband starts pestering you for a new bridge camera, or your kids outgrow their shoes - you need only do a quick search to save yourself a few pounds!
