I’m not a huge sale shopper, I’ll admit. Mostly because, in years gone by, sales (especially on the high street) have meant trawling through racks of unwanted, end of season buys that I’ll know I’ll regret as soon as I get them home. Recently, though, with costs of, well, everything rising, I’ve reframed the way I think about sales and have put time into identifying the really good ones. The ones that are definitely worth spending time scrolling through—and Me+Em’s sale is one of them.
Now, rather than multiple rash purchases, I’m using the discounted periods to invest wisely in just a couple of better quality items that would, without the money off, feel too steep. As well as quality I’m trying to think of versatility, and instead of getting excited by the pretty dresses, swimwear and sandals that I’ll only be able to wear for another month or so, right now I’m searching the sales for buys that will see me through autumn and winter.
