Always remember though, a bargain is only a bargain if you were going to buy it anyway.

Don't just buy something for the sake of it, only if you need it.

How does the Boots Advantage card scheme work?

THE Boots Advantage card promises to maximise customers' saving.

The retailer launched its loyalty scheme over 20 years ago, offering points on purchases and discounts on thousands of products.

Shoppers just have to download the app on iPhone or Android phones, then can start using it in-store or online.

You get three points for every £1 spent, which equates to 3p, as well as an extra 10% off on over 6,000 own-brand products.

Perfume lovers can nab a luxury brand scent from YSL for £136 - down from £170.

Shoppers can also bag 50% off Mood Babe body mist, reduced from £2 to £1.

Boots has lowered prices across all of their products from beauty, skincare, toiletries and even foods.

A lot of the products that are in stock are selling fast too, so you'll want to be quick.

You can also find clearance sales in your local Boots store, although the items you'll find there vary from branch to branch.

So just because something has been reduced to clear on Boots' website that doesn't mean you'll find it in your local.

You can find your nearest Boots store by using the retailer's store locator.

Of course, when buying any product you should check to see if you can find it cheaper at other retailers.
