Deals Site DiscountVouchers.co.uk Reports UK Set for Best Sales Ever

DiscountVouchers.co.uk, the leading online retail voucher codes site, is telling the country’s consumers to prepare for the best January sales ever with deals on show of up to 50% saving at famous stores and retailers.

Between the poor snowy weather and people’s reduced buying budgets, stores have seen a tough Christmas period and with that in mind they look set to offer shoppers the best sales ever with big deals on clothing, electronics, consumer goods and more.

Among the savings to be had at present on the DiscountVouchers.co.uk website are massive deals like as much as 50% off at Argos, Wallis, Halfords, Laura Ashley, All Saints, Boden and Office, up to 40% off at Debenhams, 30% off women’s clothing from Marks & Spencer, 2 for 1 on main meals at Pizza Hut and exclusive deals for money off at Virgin Experience Days, Red Letter Days, Interflora and more.

Simon Terry, spokesperson for DiscountVouchers.co.uk, commented, “Many of the most well-known retailers in the country have had tough years and they’ve also had poor spells in the period coming up to Christmas, something that can be ascribed to the bad icy weather and also people’s relatively small budgets this year.”

“What this means is that there are massive reductions on show and we at DiscountVouchers.co.uk have already noticed massive deals of 50% off and more to be had from lots of the best known retailers around.”

Consider Safety First this Christmas with Brookes

The last few weeks has seen the UK covered in snow, the roads, rails and skies brought to a standstill and severe weather warnings issued across various media channels. At times like this, when the harsh winter sets in, it is important that people take the necessary precautions to insure they are safe and warm.

In the workplace, it is also imperative that employers insure that their workforce is well looked after and in no way at risk. Individuals do need to take it upon themselves to insure their own safety to a certain degree; however, companies also have a responsibility to their employees. Brookes provides an extensive range of work wear that can help keep your workforce looking professional as well as keeping them safe at all times no matter what the environment.

In icy conditions, the first step to preventing unnecessary accidents is to make sure that all employees have the correct work wear. Footwear is incredibly important. It is vital that workers’ feet are kept warm and dry in bitterly cold and wet conditions. It is also important that shoes and boots have proper grip to prevent anyone slipping on the ice.

Gloves are also crucial for anyone working outdoors in a cold environment. Gloves are not only useful for protecting hands from the cold but also, depending on the work being done, for protecting the hands from sparks or corrosive chemicals.

Helmets are a vital piece of kit on any worksite. In the winter months when it may well be darker, wetter and colder during working hours, the risk of accidents happening naturally increases and so, in line with the well known adage, safety first.

In winter months when people are more likely to be working outside after dark the importance of High Vis clothing is paramount, particularly for those working on roads. Night time makes it harder for people to be seen and it is especially hard to see people when there is bad weather too.

Continuing Icy Conditions See Internet Sales Soar at Purekit.com

The Bleak weather outlook at the Christmas rush sees many stay indoors to do their Christmas shopping, with record sales recorded at Purekit.com

Two weeks of bitter cold, snow and ice has kept many Christmas shoppers indoors, however the current thaw has seen shoppers head out in their droves to make up for lost time with shopping centres and high streets inundated. However with a further cold front fast approaching, and more subzero temperatures expected later this week, anyone looking to leave Christmas shopping until the weekend could well be in for a miserable time. With a few days still left to post in time for Christmas, the sales rush is being felt at PureKit.com, the nation’s favourite online supplier of outdoor clothing and footwear.

Whilst many head out and brave the queues and cold weather, online stores such as Purekit.com have enjoyed record visitors and sales, as many shoppers choose to ease the burden this year by ordering their presents and warm winter clothing online. The website has long been a popular choice in the run up to Christmas, with the full range of outdoor footwear and equipment the natural place to shop for lovers of the great outdoors. However more and more shoppers are taking advantage of the convenience of internet shopping with the conditions outdoors being an extra incentive to buy many presents online this year.

With temperatures plummeting as low as -10ºC over the past days, and much of the east of the country looking to have more of the same later this week, Purekit.com has seen an extraordinary rise in sales of warm winter apparel. Brands well known for their protection from extreme temperatures such as Berghaus and Icebreaker merino clothing have been the most popular choice during the recent cold snap, providing thin and warm layers, with exceptional weather protection. “Icebreaker underwear and performance outerwear is selling particularly well” claims Purekit.com MD Richard Gundle, when asked about customer trends at the online store.

Current Weather Conditions Spark a Surge in Visitors at Onshoes.com Seeking Warm Footwear

The current Arctic weather conditions in the UK have triggered a surge in visitors at Onshoes.com, looking for warm yet stylish footwear to cope with the cold.

Onshoes.com is a relatively new website catering to fashionable footwear lovers keen to find out the latest news and gossip from the world’s elite fashion designers. The site offers news, reviews and comment on the latest footwear to be spotted at glitzy ceremonies around up and down the country. However it is warm winter boots which are the biggest attraction this month, as the brutal winter weather grips the whole country. Lovers of Jimmy Choo and Christian Audigier are turning to the brands such as Hunter and Emu, drawn by their fashionable styling and highly protective design, with thoughts of strappy stilettos placed to the back of the mind until the weather abates.

“Hunter wellies are always popular when the snow starts to fall” claims Onshoes.com MD Luke Barlow. They have been big sellers over the past couple of weeks, with the design perfect for snowy conditions and even better when it finally turns to slush. Sales have been high at Onshoes.com, along with warm winter boots and heavy duty winter walking footwear which normally seeks sales peak well into January.

The bitterly cold conditions have brought forward many winter purchases, with visitors snapping up boots following the dismal weather prediction for the coming weeks. Anyone stuck with ideas for Christmas presents has been able to turn to warm winter wear, and it’s unlikely that any gift will be better appreciated. on Christmas morning with the snowy and icy conditions looking set to continue well into the festive period. At Onshoes.com, Merrell has been a popular choice, with its rugged trainers and boots being ideal to deal with snow and ice, and the Outbound boot being irresistible according to the sites visitor numbers. For the women, waterproof ankle and calf boots are the most popular choices, with the Merrell Oslo one of the most popular styles. With temperatures dropping to as low as -19ºC in some parts of the UK over the weekend, it is no surprise that PolarTec insulation is taking precedence over Christian Louboutin.

“Footwear trends closely follow the weather, and as soon as the first icy spell arrives, warm winter boots sales go through the roof” says Barlow, although few would have predicted that the sales rush would arrive this side of Christmas. Onshoes.com is certainly looking forward to the weather easing, and the return of the designer strappy high heels to celebrity’s feet once again, although it would seem that few visitors are entertaining the thought of lightweight sexy shoes this week.

Menkind Ranked 79th In The Sunday Times Fast Track 100 League Table!

The Fast Track 100 league table ranks Britain’s 100 private companies with the fastest growing sales over the latest three years.

Menkind is a multi channel retail business offering a wide and interesting choice of men’s gifts through a number of stores across the UK and website www.menkind.co.uk

The year ending March 2010 has been Menkind’s most successful to date and was a period of considerable growth for the company both in terms of turnover and profitability during what, for many, has been a difficult market. This has been achieved due to the strength of the proposition and the flexible operating model which allows Menkind to manage and align costs effectively with market conditions.

The current economic climate has created great opportunities as well as challenges providing Menkind with the opportunity to expand their permanent store base from six stores to twenty, including openings in key major cities such as Cardiff, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester and Nottingham.

Menkind’s sales have increased 52% a year, from an annualised £3.9m in 2007 to£13.7m in 2010, ranking them 79th in the Fast Track 100 league table published on 5th December 2010 in The Sunday Times.

Remember December The 22nd – The Cut Off Date For All Your January Sales Point Of Sale Orders At UK POS

UK Point of Sale, the UK’s leading supplier of many point of sale accessories and retail supplies has urged businesses to get their orders in before the Christmas cut off date to make sure they are fully prepared for the January sales!

Whilst many shoppers are rushing round trying to get the last of their festive shopping completed many retailers will be anticipating one of the most busy times of year for the industry – the January sales – and to help maintain some sort of order during this hectic time of year UK POS have urged owners and store managers to stock up on the vital point of sale accessories they’ll need from Window Displays to Snap Frames.

UK POS provides all of these and many more to help make sure businesses are able to enhance their customers’ shopping experience with clearly labelled sections and easy to read offers and shop displays to boost sales. But if businesses plan to be ready when the January sales starts then they will have to hurry to make sure their orders are delivered before the New Year.

UK POS’ last day for orders before Christmas is the 22nd of December; all other orders made after this date over the festive period will only be processed on the 4th of January 2011 which may be too late for some businesses. The good news though is that all orders made on the 22nd will be delivered the very next day (the 23rd of December) allowing retailers to be armed and ready for the sales crowds.

Debra Jamieson of UK POS urged businesses to act now, saying, “With the January sales being the perfect way to start the new year for a lot of retailers it is important that they are able to clearly display promotional items and mark sections of their shop out to the crowds”

“When it comes to shopper satisfaction, having a strong point of sale presence whether this be pavement signs to draw customers in or PVC ticket holders showing prices clearly, it all creates a better experience for the customer”.

All Fancy Dress Reveal Santa is a Best Seller

It has been revealed that Santa will be breaking new records. With All Fancy Dress launching new Santa costumes, demands for the suits have astonishingly increased and are already beginning to sell out.

Last year Santa costumes were extremely popular with party goers. However, this year Santa is set to become a best seller.

Santa is, of course, the most lovable and iconic symbol of Christmas, This festive character is based on Saint Nicholas, who gave gifts to those in need anonymously. Santa is known to give gifts to nice children and a sack of coal to the naughty.

In the All Fancy Dress Santa collection you can find top sellers such as the Deluxe Santa Costume and the Plush Santa Suit. New Santa costumes have also been launched into the collection to keep up with customer demand. New costume Plus Size Santa Costume is already proving a popular choice.

Mark Heaton of All Fancy Dress.com commented; “In these tough economic times people are increasing turning to ‘dressing up’ as an escape from reality. Santa Claus is particularly popular as a costume, perhaps because it reminds us of the true message of Christmas as symbolised by St.Nicholas, which is about helping others and spreading happiness.”

Layer Up To Stay Warm And Working This Christmas With Brookes

With only a few more sleeps to go until Christmas day and the arctic weather engulfing much of the UK, there is a definite festive feeling in the air. With sprits usually set to ‘high’ this time of year, its important the freezing temperatures don’t impact mood or productivity. It can be difficult getting out of bed when it’s dark outside and tricky to stay warm through the day, but there are ways to help yourself, says eBrookes.co.uk founder Ian Brookes.

eBrookes.co.uk has been providing quality and affordable work wear for over 10 years, and this time of year Brookes is always giving the same advice; “The cold weather leads everyone to try and stay warm, obviously, but what often happens if you become so warm, you starting sweating. And sweating in the cold is not a nice feeling!”

“Thankfully the technology has been advanced and engineered whereby you can layer up to stay warm without perspiring.”

Brookes is right. Originally developed for professional athletes, advancements such as the ‘Helly Hansen Stay Dry’ fabric enables the wearer to stay dry and comfortable whilst working in demanding environments too.

“It feels comfortable on the skin too and is versatile. I wear mine when hiking and playing my weekly football this time of year,” added Brookes.

“Our main customers though seem to be workers who spend prolonged periods outside this time of year. Without a doubt, a base layer is the perfect first layer for your workwear attire, and which keeps your warm, but not too warm, and thus keeping productivity at a high.”

As well as offering base layers as part of the extensive Brookes workwear catalogue, Brookes also provide an innovative and increasingly popular clothing customisation service, which works to give a workforce bespoke branded workwear.

Topshop Launches Christmas Fashion Film

Topshop has launched its new Christmas fashion film, which highlights the key trends for this year’s Christmas period and the party season.

The festive fashion film is directed by Angelo Pennetta and features model Ashley Smith and stylist Francesca Burns showing off the hottest pieces for the Christmas period this year.

The video helps Christmas party-goers create some beautiful looks, whether they plan to stay in with friends or head out on the town.

Some of the keys trends this season include diamante scattered fishtail gown and sequin shift dresses which create the Christmas sparkle. Any look can be toughened up with the help of lace-up boots and chunky knitwear to help keep out the chill on the cold December nights.

The Christmas period is also about tassels and textures, so the addition of leopard print or faux fur can keep any outfit right on trend. And as its Christmas, it’s important to sparkle, so anything with sequins or gems will look perfect.

The new festive fashion video shows that a variety of looks can be created from Topshop’s latest collection, no matter what style customers are going for, as there is something for everyone. Looks can differ from beaded knits, leopard print coats and capes to party frocks with huge bows and pearl encrusted heels to the grungier look of ankle socks and lace-up boots.

Located in Fife, they’ve got over 40 years of experience of manufacturing and retailing beds, their website was launched at the start of 2010.

Winter generally means big furniture sales, however VAT in Britain is set to rise to 20% from 15% on January 4th 2011. It’s inevitable that shops will pass on this increase on to shoppers; therefore you might just find that the bed you wanted has actually gone up in price.

Leather beds are ideal for the contemporary home and with the rise of modern design it is no surprise that leather beds are becoming a popular choice amongst consumers. LeatherBedFrames.org.uk has a diverse collection of leather beds from which to choose, including; authentic leather beds, faux leather beds & leather beds with storage.

LeatherBedFrames.org.uk new additions include both genuine and faux leather beds; the main difference between these two is roughly 50% in price.

Improvements in manufacturing have made faux leather beds a more eye-catching proposition than they were in the past. Not only are they animal friendly, they are also high quality – a lot of the newer faux leather beds are almost indistinguishable from the authentic thing, the only thing absent is the unique fragrance that authentic leather has.

Online Shopping – Employer and Security Issues

As Christmas is nearly upon us again, the last minute rush to buy the remaining presents is intensifying. But according the APACS, the UK payments association (apacs.org.uk), 85% shoppers find the high street too crowded and stressful. Therefore many of us are increasingly using the internet to buy our presents; it is easy, quick and you do not have to endure the cold weather or long queues. Also, the presents are delivered to your door within one or two days and some are even gift wrapped in the process.

We are spending online at an average rate of £4.57 million per hour in the run-up to Christmas – (IRMG – Interactive Media in Retail Group – img.org ). “38% of those sales have taken place outside of traditional shopping hours, either before 9am or after 6pm.” That surely means that 62% of those sales are placed during working hours. This is causing information security experts like commissum to fear that many shoppers will be using their company’s time and resources to do their shopping in working hours. This can open organisations up to a number of risks such as loss of productivity, reduction of available bandwidth and increase of personal email which can lead to more spam and phishing attacks. Companies are therefore advised to provide employee with awareness training such as provided by commissum.

But if the internet is such a convenient way to buy your last minute presents why aren’t we all using the online shops? After all, the online market is currently £ 1.6 billion of a potential £ 5 to £ 6 billion to be spent leading up to Christmas. Apparently one in three of us are avoiding the online shops because of the perceived dangers of fraud, commissum are therefore helping online shops to keep their systems secure with their PCI DSS related services.

At commissum we often see evidence of users not taking simple measures to reduce these risks. Neither are they aware of the risks of their actions while purchasing goods online. This is backed-up by statistics from Card watch (cardwatch.org.uk) concluding that 1 in 8 online shoppers fail to logout a shopping site and 1 in 4 online shoppers do not check whether a website is safe and secure.
