I'd never call myself a bargain hunter. There I said it. I just don't have the drive to sharpen my elbows, scramble along a floor (I'm looking at you Topshop) or queue at ridiculous o'clock in the morning. On-line sales however are a completely different ball game - being able to check out the discounts a day early, and getting notifications of the final reductions all from the comfort of my sofa without any of the in store chaos is my kinda shopping. Is there anything more satisfying than getting your mitts on pieces that were out of your price range but are now affordable? I think not. 

Whistles, Topshop, Anthropologie and Space NK are four stores that have really tickled my fancy this sales season. Clearly old habits die hard as I picked up the same This Works set from Space NK as last year, let's just say team This Works know how to make me fall into a deep slumber. 

Anthropologie is my go to homeware destination for cool pieces so I'd be cray not to check out their sale offering. As soon as I spotted the landmark dish I knew it'd be perfect for Craigs bedside which is littered with coins and random bits and bobs unlike mine which is actually pretty tidy - when I took the above picture he asked if I was doing a post on 'the boys bedside', not quite Mr! Additions to my Anthropologie basket include a spiced cranberry candle and a measuring cup which is a constant reminder to bake more.

In Topshop I discovered the super cute Vintage Sweet recipe book (the perfect gift) and the amusing spoilt milk birthday card, which I may have to keep for myself. Does anyone else do this with cards or is it just me? 

Fast becoming my I-wish-my-wardrobe-was-made-up-of store Whistles had the most epic sale and I picked up a few pieces including a lace dress for my buds wedding (expect a wedding outfit of the day early March), a leopard print clutch and maybe another clutch too which sadly refused to be photographed. No doubt it'll be making an appearance on Cagney and Lace soon.

Have you been sale-ing in January? Are you a fan of my cheeky picks?
