The other day I was shopping and went into Primark to see if I could get any bargains. I've been wanting one of the army jackets with the PU sleeves for a few weeks now but I was holding off until pay day because I didn't have much money left. I'd seen the one in Zara a while ago which was £79.99, one in Topshop which was £65 and one in River Island which was £55. I decided I was going to buy the RI one but when I went into Primark I saw one very similar and it was a bargain at £25!!
Although it's not as good quality as the other jackets, it was less than half the price so I thought I might as well get it. I'll probably only wear this jacket for a couple months as it'll get colder and also it'll probably only be in fashion for one season so I didn't want to spend a lot of money on something I won't wear after this Autumn.
Since I'd found this little bargain, I thought I'd treat myself to something else. My eyes went straight to this tan shopper bag which was only £12! I needed a new handbag as I'd been using the same one since Christmas. I'd always lusted after the Zara shopper bag and although it's a slightly different shape, I think it's a great dupe. This bag also comes in black so I think I might have to get it next month since it's so cheap. I've been using it everyday so far and it goes with almost everything.
Have you found any bargains or dupes lately?
