We all want a good amount of savings in our bank, don’t we? However, it is not as easy as we imagine it to be and it gets a bit challenging too. Just getting started with your savings plan requires a lot of motivation in itself. And the guilty pleasure of shopping online at Supersales, is just another cup of thrill and enjoyment.

But many times, this pleasure of ours, makes us step outside our spending budget and tighten up for a month or so. This leaves us feeling frustrated with ourselves. However, with some simple shopping hacks, you can easily get what you want and stay on your budget too. 

Seems impossible? Well, it isn’t. Let us show you, HOW! 

 

 

• Follow the brands you like:

Follow all the brands that you usually shop from so that you can always keep an eye out on the various sales and discounts you can avail. Every brand puts up two or maybe three seasonal sales. Some offer more than that too. Thus, keeping an eye out will always help you in saving more. For example, Superdy sale is always a great deal to catch and will keep you on budget too. 

 

• Follow Influencers:

Marketing through influencers has become a go-to for brands these days. Almost all the brands with a high following, are given codes to share with their audience. These codes usually have a 10-30% discount. This is a wonderful hack that many people use these days to get the product that they have been wanting to, for a long time. Thus, follow influencers who have authentic, high following and you will get a bundle of discounts now and then. 

 

• Do you really need it?

Impulsive buying is a major issue and we all face this dilemma sometimes. Thus, the best way to avoid it is to add things in the cart and wait for at least 10 minutes. Do you still think you need it? Evaluate whether you will be using it or not. If you start to feel unsure about your purchase; you know that you really do not need it and you can simply call it quits on it. It will certainly need determination but you will end up realising that you probably wouldny even use it. 

 

• First time purchase coupons:

The best brands give you a 10 or 15% discount coupon when you subscribe to their email. When you register on their website for the first time, you can use that coupon to get yourself anything you want, at a lesser price. A special hack; if you have 2 different emails, you can use the other email the next time and get another coupon. 

 

• Buy from one stop shops:

If you buy from specific websites, you will spend a lot more. But if you buy from a one stop shop, it will be a lot cheaper. For example, buying a dress from Amazon is cheaper than buying it from a branded website which is putting a sale and you are too eager to get one. Thus, act smart and save. 

CONCLUSION

We all can shop and save at the same time, if we act a little sensible. However, we usually fail to do so and end up spending a lot more than we plan to. With these shopping hacks, you can get your favourite items at a lesser price and also try ditching the habit of impulsive buying. We hope these help you in staying on a budget.
