General Fashion deals

We heard a rumour there’d be a Next 50% off sale this weekend and while not official, we’ve done our usual investigating and found plenty of evidence to suggest it’ll start in stores and online this Saturday (23 Mar) - with most stores likely opening early from 7am. We'll update you here and on Twitter @MSE_Deals and Facebook once we know more. 

Here's what we know...

(1) We've heard from some MSE Forumites and MoneySavers on Twitter that they've already got their VIP pre-sale slots for this week - a very strong clue.

(2) When we checked this Saturday’s opening time for the Next store closest to MSE Towers, it had been changed from its usual 9am to 7am (this is very typical of a Next sale launch):

Do check with your local store before turning up at 7am to avoid disappointment (find your nearest).

(3) As one MoneySaver pointed out to us on Twitter thanks, Vicky!), Next is recruiting for temporary sales staff on its website. It specifically mentions a ‘Mid-Season Sale’ and says you'll most likely be needed on Fri 22 Mar and Sat 23 Mar. We wonder why that could be…

(4) It usually happens at roughly the same time each year, so based on past years this is when we'd expect the sale to launch. 

If you go online to Topshop*, or visit one of its stores, you can get up to 60% off selected items in its sale. Delivery's £4 or you can click and collect for free in store (find your nearest*).

Sale items, both online and in stores, will be clearly marked and the discount will be automatically applied at the checkout.

As is the nature of sales, stock may be limited - so you'll have to go quick if you've got your eye on something.

If you go online to M&S* or into a store (find your nearest*), you can get up to 50% off in its sale, while stocks last. Delivery's £3.50 or free if you're spending £50 or more. You can also click and collect in store for free. 

As it's a sale, stock is likely to be limited, so go quick if there's something you're after. See our High Street Sales round-up for more sales that are on now.

If you download the free Gap+ loyalty app* (Apple iOS or Android) and register a few details, you'll be allocated a unique 'Gap+ ID' code, which entitles you to 5% off most Gap purchases. The 5% can even be stacked with other codes for a bumper saving.

In store, it's valid on both full-price and sale items in all standalone stores and concessions (but not Gap Outlet). Simply show your Gap+ ID at the till.

Online, it's only valid on full-price items. Just enter your unique Gap+ ID code from the app.

Gap regularly has 30%-40% off codes available via its website, normally valid both online and in stores, so with this extra 5% off you can make some hefty savings.

You can get a full school uniform (ages 3-16) from £15.50 in selected stores at Tesco (find your nearest - you can filter stores which stock F&F clothing).

What do you get?

• 2x polo shirts - from £2.50

Prices change depending on size. We've asked Tesco to confirm the prices for the larger sizes and will update you here once we've got this info.

Items included in the sale are clearly marked and discounts are applied automatically at the till. When we checked on Tue 26 Jun, there were around 13,399 items in the sale across all departments.

One of the discounts we found on Tue 20 Nov: 

• Women's off-the-shoulder dress - £12 (was £19.99)

You can get a voucher for £5 off a £35 spend at M&S when you recycle at least one M&S-branded item by taking it to an Oxfam shop.

Simply take an old piece of M&S clothing or soft furnishings into your local Oxfam shop, where you'll get the voucher. M&S says you'll get one for every donation you make containing its clothing. For more info, see 'How can I get a £5 M&S voucher from Oxfam?'

If you’re an NUS Extra card holder, log in to your account to get a code for 10% off online at Timberland*.

NUS Extra cards cost £12, and can get you discounts at more retailers than your student ID, including Superdrug, Amazon and Domino's. 

If you're not already signed up to H&M Club, its free loyalty scheme, you can join via the H&M app or website, and you'll get 10% off plus free delivery (norm £3.99) on your next purchase online or in store.

H&M told us that you'll then have two weeks to use your voucher. You can see your voucher's expiry date when you sign in via the H&M app or website and click on 'H&M Club'. 

How to use it online

At the checkout stage, click on the box next to 'Add H&M Club voucher' (underneath the discount code section), and it will be applied automatically.

How to use it in store

To use it in store you'll need to download the H&M app. Go into the H&M Club section of the app and click 'activate in store only'. A voucher will then appear, which you'll need to show to your cashier at the till. Important: Once activated, the voucher will only be valid for 15 minutes - so make sure you don't activate it before you're at the checkout.

The voucher works on both full-price and sale items, but it can't be used on gift cards, designer collaborations, special collections or with any other discounts. 

Debenhams often has offers in store and online via its own website, but you could save even more money by shopping online in the Debenhams eBay outlet*. Delivery's £3.49.

It offers discounted prices on fashion as well as items for the home, toys and gifts.

Posh footwear brand Kurt Geiger isn't known for running regular discounts in its stores. However, by shopping online in its Shoeaholics outlet* you can often save as much as 75% versus the normal high street price of its shoes, handbags and accessories.

But while Shoeaholics is owned by Kurt Geiger, in addition to its own labels (eg, Miss KG and Carvela), it also stocks other footwear brands such as Converse and Ugg boots.

Note: We occasionally have MSE Blagged deals for extra discount at Shoeaholics. So do check our page for any Shoeaholics codes in case you can save even more money.

Women's fashion retailer Boohoo is known for offering discounts online via its website. However, you could potentially save even more money on clothes in Boohoo's official eBay outlet*.

When we last looked, there were thousands of items all heavily discounted.

You can find discounts of up to 50% at sportswear brand Puma* in its ongoing sale online and in stores (find your nearest*). Delivery's £3.95. 

Items included in the sale are clearly marked and the discount will be automatically applied at the checkout, so there's no need for a code. When we looked on Tue 26 Jun, there were 2,106 items in the sale.

Examples of strong discounts we found include:

• Puma Astro cup leather trainers* - £27.50 (were £55). Cheapest found elsewhere were £39 at Sports Direct.

As is the nature of sales, stock may be limited - so go quick if there's something you're after.

Laura Ashley often has sales in store and online via its own website, but you could save even more money on furniture items in the Laura Ashley eBay outlet*.

You can save up to 70% on sofas, armchairs, beds and other furniture, but not fashion.

Ann Summers often has sales in store and online via its own website, but you could also save money in the Ann Summers eBay outlet*.

It offers discounts on lingeries, adult novelties, sex toys and related accessories.

If you bring a bag of unwanted clothes or home textiles to your nearest H&M, you can get a £5 off £25 voucher to spend in store. H&M says the clothes can be any brand and in any condition.

Superdry's official eBay outlet* offers up to 75% off men's and women's clothes. It also has a range of special offers on selected items.

Since items are quite pricey to begin with, stock sold on the outlet arm of women's clothing site Hobbs doesn't come cheap. However, with discounts of up to 70% on a good mix of previous season's stock, there's still potential for a bargain.

If you go online to the Figleaves outlet*, you can get up to 60% off a vast range of men's and women's underwear and nightwear. 

From kids' clothes to women's evening wear, there's a vast range of discounted stock on the Very eBay outlet*.

There are always ways to save money at Tesco's clothing range F&F*, so even if there isn’t a cracking deal out there that works for you, don’t assume you can’t cut your costs further.

Ways to save include:

• Free Click & Collect. Every online purchase is eligible for free Click & Collect from Tesco and there's no minimum spend required, so you'll save on delivery costs.


• Keep an eye on shop layouts and you could find out when a sale's coming up. Items are generally laid out by season's look in stores, but when a sale's coming, they're arranged into categories, eg, trousers and tops - if you're about to purchase and you notice a layout change, it could be worth waiting. Check our Shopping Tricks Guide for more ways to save on the high street.


• Try haggling. We polled 1,400 MoneySavers to find out in which shops they had most success haggling and Tesco shoppers had a success rate of 62% - so it's probably worth a go if you're feeling brave enough. Read our Haggle on the High Street guide for more haggling tips.


• Check out similar retailers, eg, Sainsbury's Tu, George at Asda. If you're not committed to buying from F&F, check out our deals from Sainsbury's Tu, George, Matalan or New Look where there may be a better offer.


• Want more? Find out more shopping tricks in our Shopping Secrets guide.


• Had a problem with F&F? There’s a free online tool you can use to complain – it helps draft, manage and if necessary escalate your complaint. It’s offered by a firm called Resolver, which we like so much we work with it to help people get complaints justice – you can use it to complain to Tesco*.

If you spot any hot deals out there we have missed (we are human after all!), please let us know on Twitter @MSE_Deals or by emailing msedeals@moneysavingexpert.com.

There are always ways to save money at fashion and home retailer La Redoute*, so even if there isn’t a cracking deal out there that works for you, don’t assume you can’t cut your costs.

Ways to save include:

• Free Click & Collect on all orders. La Redoute's delivery costs £3.99, but you can save money by collecting your order from a local pick-up point. For many, this is actually more convenient as it eliminates the risk of items being delivered while you're out.
   
• Browse the sale. There are regularly discounts of up to 50% off in the La Redoute sale* - which is always stocked, though the number of products in the sale does fluctuate. And occasionally, there are codes that'll give you an extra discount on sale items too.
   
• Check for deals from similar retailers. If you're not committed to buying from La Redoute, check for offers and discounts from other retailers such as Asos, Matalan and Next.
   
• Had a problem with La Redoute? There's a free online tool you can use to complain - it helps draft, manage and if necessary escalate your complaint. It's offered by a firm called Resolver, which we like so much we work with it to help people get complaints justice - you can use it to complain to La Redoute*.

Students can get 10% off in store at Accessorize* with an NUS Extra card - simply show your card at the checkout to get the discount.

If you're shopping online, you'll need a code from Unidays, which you can get for free by signing up with your university details.

Students can get 20% off full-price items online and in store at Warehouse. You'll need to show an NUS Extra card at the checkout in store, or enter your card number online to get the discount.

NUS Extra cards cost £12, and can get you discounts at more retailers than your student ID. If you don't have one already, you can still get this discount online via Student Beans by signing up for free with your university details.

High street chain Timpson is offering free dry cleaning to the unemployed - if you need an outfit for a job interview.

You don't need a voucher for this, just ask at the counter to get the deal. Timpson confirmed you can get your suit/outfit cleaned for free as long as it's for an interview.

This deal first launched a year ago but has sparked renewed interest in recent weeks and we believe it’s a decent offer worth mentioning again. Timpson told us there isn't currently an end date and that the offer would continue to run as long as people didn’t 'take it to the cleaners', so please only claim the free dry cleaning if you genuinely need it.

The offer is running in every store that has dry cleaning facilities - about 500 locations across the UK. Find your nearest Timpson store here.

If you go online to M&S* or into a store, you can get 3for2 on selected £6 knickers. Delivery's £3.50 or collect in store for free.

Add three items from the 3for2 mix & match selection* to your basket and the cost of the cheapest one will be automatically deducted at the checkout. In stores, items valid in the 3for2 will be clearly marked.

There are always ways to save money at H&M, so even if there isn’t a cracking deal out there that works for you, don’t assume you can’t cut your costs further.

Ways to save include:

• Keep an eye on shop layouts and you could find out when a sale's coming up. Items are generally laid out by season's look in stores, but when a sale's coming, they're arranged into categories, eg, trousers and tops - if you're about to purchase and you notice a layout change, it could be worth waiting.


• Try haggling. In May 2016 we polled 1,400 MoneySavers to see in which shops hagglers have most success. H&M came out with a 50% success rate - so it's worth a go. Find out more in our Haggle on the High Street guide.


• Check out similar retailers, eg, New Look and other fashion retailers. If you're not committed to buying from H&M, check out our deals from New Look, Asos, Next, Topshop, Topman, River Island and Zara, where there may be a better offer.

There are always ways to save money at Asos*, so even if there isn’t a cracking deal out there that works for you, don’t assume you can’t cut your costs further.

Ways to save include:

• Up to 70% off bargains. Check the Asos Outlet for reductions on women's fashion* and men's fashion*.


• Free delivery. Delivery's £3, but if you spend £20 or more, it's free. Asos often has items for £3 or less in its outlet and accessories categories, so if you've got between £17 and £20 in your basket, it's worth checking if there's an item you can add to bring your total to £20 and get free delivery.


• Unlimited next-day delivery for £9.95 a year. It's always more MoneySaving to go for standard delivery, but if you're going to choose next-day delivery or nominated-day delivery more than once a year (both normally £5.95 a time), you'd save money with an Asos Premier Delivery*. This membership costs £9.95 and automatically renews every year - if you want to cancel, you'll need to do it in the last 28 days of your 12-month membership.


• Check out similar retailers, eg, House of Fraser and other fashion retailers that sell what you're looking for. If you're not committed to buying from Asos, check out our deals from House of Fraser, John Lewis, Next, Zara, Topshop, Topman, H&M, French Connection and Ralph Lauren, where there may be a better offer.

Ways to save include:

• Free Click & Collect on orders over £19.99. Delivery costs £3.99, so if you've got between £16 and £19.99 worth of stuff in your basket online, it's worth checking whether there's an item you could add to make your total £19.99, so you can pick up from a store for free.


• Try and get a discount by abandoning your online shopping basket. In our Shopping Secrets guide we've compiled a list of online discounts that Forumites say they've received after abandoning an item in their shopping basket. We can't guarantee you'll get a discount, but a Forumite told us they were offered 20% off, so it's worth a try.


• Try haggling. In May 2016 we polled 1,400 MoneySavers to see in which shops they had most success. High street fashion retailers did feature - so it's worth a go. Find out more in our Haggle on the High Street guide.

Shop online at Reiss* (delivery's £5 or collect in-store for free) to get up to 50% off, while stocks last.
