Our top tips for shopping holiday deals

Online shopping means you can grab the best bargains from the comfort of your sofa, perhaps with a hot cup of cocoa, if you're lucky. Holiday deals flood the internet every day - often releasing new discounts every few minutes.

Set up online accounts beforehand

The stressful part of buying a holiday deal is normally reaching the checkout and having to go through a long process of sign-up forms, email verifications, and all that. So if you're serious about shopping, make sure you set up your online account in advance.

Organisation is key

Spend the week beforehand pinpointing a destination that you really want to focus on, whether it be Greece or San Fransisco. Focus is everything! And try not to be distracted from what you're trying to plan.

Have a budget

Many of us are guilty of taking advantage of every single deal thrown our way, even if we don’t necessarily want or need what we’re buying. So, as well as being organised, having a budget and sticking to it is one way you'll see the most satisfaction from holiday shopping.
