When it comes to online shopping, savvy shoppers are always in search of new ways to maximize their savings, due to the continuing cost of living crisis and inflation at 10.1%. Fortunately, there are many less-known strategic methods for securing the best deals.

Together with Nick Drewe, retail expert at online discounts platform, Wethrift, we provide a list of tips for maximizing your savings when shopping onlineas well as analysis on which brands are offering the most discount codes to their mailing lists.

1. Leave items in your basket

Leaving items in your basket will often trigger an abandoned basket email after a certain period of time. This is done by retailers to encourage you to go through to the next step of the purchase journey, and more often than not, they will try to incentivize the purchase by offering a discounted price.

2. Use a price tracker to spot misleading ‘deals’

Style blogger gives frank and honest reviews of online fashion brands.

United States – May 14, 2023 —

Style blogger Lindsey Puls has revealed the truth behind buying with online fashion brands in her frank and honest reviews.

Lindsey, who has created a travel and style blog – Have Clothes, Will Travel – has written a series of MUST READ reviews for online shoppers.

She said: “Most of us will have amazing deals on clothes, underwear, shoes, swimwear and exercise kits that pop up as ads during our internet or social media browsing. It is so difficult to know whether the deals being advertised are too good to be true.

“I decided to write reviews on these different sites so my readers could make an informed decision on whether to order from them or not. My reviews are frank and honest. Some are positive and some are not so positive, but I think being open and giving my true opinions on these sites will act as a good guide for online shoppers.

Think of Australian fashion and it’s likely loads of beige linen, beach-ready board shorts, and hippy-ish mini dresses will be conjured up. A quick look at the street style on show at Australian Fashion Week’s Resort 2023 edition last week obliterated those stereotypes, however, and proved there’s far more going on fashion-wise in Sydney’s streets than you’d probably first imagined. Right now, the city’s runways are evolving, as a new gene of young, emerging talent – ​​like Alix Higginswhose front row challenged Chopova Lowena’s when it came to how many people were wearing her designs, and Digthe first First Nations brand to show solo on schedule – rise up.

As is the case when you’re in a world – and frustratingly slow DHL tracking time – away from Europe, brands born in both Australia and Aotearoa-New Zealand were on heavy rotation outside show venues. The bright leather creations of Kiwi bag label Yu Mei were seen slung over the shoulders of editors and models, and Caroline Reznik’s leather pieces were the uniform of Friday night. With so many of the week’s most highly anticipated shows that were both inspired by and featuring a catwalk full of the designers’

And it seems to be working. Temu’s app sped past Amazon, TikTok, and Instagram to reach the top of the download charts on both apples and Google Payand its ultra-low prices
