1) Shop where builders do

Check with your builder whether it’s ok to buy your own supplies as this can work out cheaper. If you can, check out builders merchants such as Wickes. These are great places to pick up bathroom suites, kitchen units and flooring and save some pennies at the same time.

2) Make the most of the sales

Retailers such as B&Q and Homebase regularly hold sales so make the most of them when you see them. Not only can you get discounts on tiling, lighting and flooring, but you can also grab some fabulous deals on furniture and bathroom/kitchen units.

And if you’re aged 60 or over, B&Q offers a discount card to allow you to get 10% off every Wednesday.

3) Use shopbots

Use websites such as Kelkoo, Shopping.com and PriceRunner to ensure you’re getting the cheapest online price for household items.
