Sale season is upon us; it’s time to go shopping, for a fraction of the price! Everything beauty, clothing, electrical, even genetically related – you want it? I’ve got it! Let me take you through my top picks!

Remember way back when, everyone and their dog would stay up until midnight, crash the sites and break the internet way before Kim did? Only for the ultimate screen of death when you’re quoted a futuristic almost criminal number in a virtual queue. The torturous wait to see your wish list sell-out in front of your eyes is so 2010, trust me it’s old news.

Black Friday is better and fairer than ever, bringing the best deals in town to your doorstep!

First up is the OG of Black Friday – Amazon!

When I say anything, I mean EVERYTHING you could ever want or think you don’t even need! With 60% off sprinkled across amazon, what’s not to love? It’s one of those stores you browse without necessarily having a item in mind. But once you spot an offer you can’t refuse… Sorry bank account but in the grand scheme of things, I’m doing you a favour! The deals are excessive, reminding you of the money you might’ve thrown away! Whether you need a new electric toothbrush, CCTV, gaming or practical bits for your home – Amazon pretty much has everything.

• YSL, REN (why shopping directly from the brand can save more money – no middleman)

Yes, you’ve heard me correctly! I’ve noticed that you can save an extra few pounds by shopping directly from the seller rather than a stockists. Quality is the exact same, whilst getting a better offer. After all, if you had a business, you’d probably try to entice shoppers to buy directly instead of a 3rd party stockists at times so there’s less profit to cut into. Businesses have overheads to pay for too, so this is a great efficient way to not only save yourself even more money, but a savvy route for any business to quids in. The market’s already saturated this time of year, I’m not complaining; more competition means more savings for consumers!

Clothing

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of denim… no not Britney and Justin – Levi’s of course! Skinny, bootleg, boyfriend, relaxed or any style of jeans that come to mind, you’re in safe hands. Along with a range of tees, hoodies, outerwear, dresses even.

The only thing standing in our way is you or possibly diluting the significance these DNA tests could bring, not only to your life, but your family’s?
