The UK’s leading spa booking agency Spabreaks.com, hired a money saving expert Laura Turner to support their consumers with managing their wellness spending following the release of the government budget. Inline with the hire, Spabreaks.com have also released their biggest ever exclusive sale offering consumers the very best deals available across the spa industry.
Following research conducted by Spabreaks.com it found that consumers spend an average of £188 on spa day trips and £526 on overnight spa breaks. With disposable income likely to be restricted following the release of the government’s budget in October, the brand has moved quickly to put measures in place to enable consumers access to the very best spa facilities across the country.
Laura Turner, also known as The Thrifty Londoner, has been brought in to help guide consumers on navigating their wellness spending and offer expert tips to get the very best deals when working to a budget.
Laura’s top 5 tips for getting the best value from wellness shopping include:
1. Determine Your Budget. Before you start browsing, make sure you have a set wellness budget in mind, and stick to it. Saving £10 – £30 per month across the year depending on income and expenditure will enable you to have between one or two incredible spa experiences come the end of the year.
2. Open A Wellness Savings Account: By having a separate account it will enable you to manage your spending associated with wellness. Utilise the account to invest money into at set frequencies and set a target for when to withdraw money.
3. Do Your Research: Look at the non-discount price and explore the timings of the offer and when you can book to get the true value of an offer.
4. The Early Bird Catches The Deal: Most offers go live inline with the 24-hour clock vs the working day as they are automated. Try exploring offers very early in the morning or even the middle of the night to get the first look at the very best deals.
5. Be Decisive: If you find a bargain, be decisive when booking. Dates such as holidays and weekends often go quickly so operate at speed and with assertiveness to get the best bargains.
Laura Turner commented, “With the government’s budget now in full affect consumers shouldn’t feel like they must wield the axe on their wellness routines. Wellness and the spa should be accessible to everyone, accommodating all budgets and financial situations.”
