Liisa continues: “Even though we are officially in the season of goodwill, we strongly recommend consumers use a price comparison site or app. As well as helping to save money, these sites can help ensure people aren’t paying over the odds on items that may be over-inflated in price. It’s a fact that many products receive a bigger discount the closer we get towards Christmas. However, it’s also true that some items receive a price hike!
“Carrying out pricing research throughout the year can potentially help save consumers hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, which is money that can be saved in the bank!”
