Your very wise, I usually get my holiday clothes whenever I see a bargain in the sales. Went to town the other day and bought new shoes, new swimsuit, and two pairs of trousers, with tops to go with them of course. :tup

Mrs Beaver loves hitting the shops when we return to the UK in spet/oct. Lots of bargins to be had that she uses through our winter in Gran Canaria, our febuary jollies to Mexico, and into the summer. She seems to be the only person in the world who can visit 3 different Primarks and spend 3 figure sums in each one at least TWICE!! :cry (and all i get is pants)

Would defo go for the end of summer sales.

When I was getting in the last bits for our hols I picked up some good bargains, I noticed quite a few shops starting to reduce there summer clothing, I got a few things in the Primark in Newcastle they also were selling things off

Anyway I buy as I go ;) , it helps on the pocket and also you can get some right bargains :)

or wait til next year . I'm at that age now where the weight seems to go on
without me noticing it , and dont want to buy if its not going to fit next year.
Shoes are different though

I don't normally buy until about a month before I go because I diet every year before hols and I need to try things on to see how they look. I don't normally even buy things like shoes and jewellery until just before I go because I need the clothes first before I buy co-ordinating shoes and jewellery :rofl

i agree its a good idea to get yourself some holiday clothes as you go along.
Before i went on holiday i saw these flip flops in topshop, they were 35 quid though, so i was like no, im not spending like, £40 on some sandals! But then a week after i got back, i saw they were £15!
Bloody glad i didn't get them before i went!
I think as long as there not gonna be outta fashion by next summer go for it. Like denim shorts, and vest tops, big beach bags, SUNLOTION summer sales are a right good time to be buying the plain things that don't seem to ever dissapear from the stores.
We are beating the shops by thinking ahead!
hahaha.
Im already thinking about next year. Im hopefully going to work in magaluf!
Jee wizz. Think of all the clothes i will need for 6 months........
Best get saving!

I booked our hols for october back in january, and immediatley started looking around in the sales, its amazing what you can pick up in january for your lovely hot holidays....im just gutted because there was a cozie in EVANS that i really wanted, it was priced at £32... too expensive for me, so kept checking if it had gone down in the sales...only i couldnt get into town last week through illness... guess what... they went down to £12, but had run out of my size by the time i went in! :(
