My favoured way of browsing the sales in from the sofa, one eye on the iPad, one eye on the TV. It makes me feel smug in the knowledge that I am doing such great bargain hunting from the comfort of my own home. So I was surprised when I visited my local branch of John Lewis to find so many sale items which weren't online - loads of them! I then spent some considerable time in the beauty hall, finding hundreds of sale gift sets from Christmas which, even when full-price, passed on some good savings. Those at Clarins and Lancome were the best, and I succumbed to a Clarins Vital Light gift set for just under £40.

Other bargains were on fragrance, L'Occitane gift sets and Mavala nail varnish gift sets. There were also some lovely knitwear accessories in the menswear department with a very unisex slant - the cashmere cable knit beanies were down from £40 to £15 and I must say, the cream one suited me rather well.
The womenswear department also had some tempting offers - particularly this cream silk shirt and the black above-the-knee silk dress by Temperley. Just shows that sometimes getting outside your comfort-zone can bring some real results!
