Save money every month of the year

June

Sale shop all year round

As well as taking advantage of the summer sales, make use of websites and discount schemes to get money off the rest of the time, too. They cover a wide range of things from days out to clothing and electrical goods. offeroftheday.co.uk provides constantly updated information on the latest and best offers from some of Britain's biggest retailers, while at madaboutbargains.co.uk, bargain-hunters share information about good offers.

Also have a look at savebuckets.com, a free online comparison service, which searches millions of products from a wide range of high-street shops, including John Lewis and Amazon. The site also has a function called ‘My Price', which notifies shoppers by email when the price of an item they want drops to within their budget.

Potential annual saving: £500

Good time to buy: Gifts. Buying gifts in bulk during the summer sales will save money and reduce stress at Christmas.
