Summer may have gotten off to a false start, but with the sales slowly drawing to a close, it's time to bag that last minute bargain before new collections oust them from the shelves. Sadly, Woolworths will be closing a number of its London stores shortly. But as well as heading to your local branch to pick up some bargains, the chain is also hosting a massive clearance on many electrical, home and toy products, including a Beko widescreen LCD television for just £149.99. Looking to surprise a loved one or simply spruce up your gadget collection? Iwantoneofthose.com sells unusual gifts and gadgetry to keep everyone impressed. Plus, if you spend £30 or more you can get £5 off. Simply enter code IGIZMO5 to qualify for the discount. When it comes to brands, I love Diesel. I also love bargains. Diesel's summer sale has teamed these two things together, with lots of offers to choose from, some of which I haven't seen in store. Sticking with fashion, whether it's stilettos or sandals you're after, the Shoe Studio still has 70% off selected footwear, with a huge range of brands to choose from, including Bertie, Nine West, and Pied a Terre. Dorothy Perkins has a great promotion at the moment where you can get 20% off all dresses and selected tops bought online. The discount is automatically taken at the checkout. Finally, for Wii lovers, Play.com has a range of games on offer for just £9.99, including my personal favourite, Prince of Persia: Rival Swords. Have fun leaping around your living room! Though for the more strenuous moves, remember: don't try this at home... Offers Which Continue To Be Valid: Sales are everywhere, as Topshop continues its widely anticipated summer sale this week. With up to 60% off a massive range of items, it's well worth checking out. Unisex store Uniqlo has also applied further reductions to selected sale stock -- some items are now less than half price. If you're after a few funky T-shirts for holidays and weekends, you might be interested in Play.com's range of discounted clothes. I particularly love this retro Goonies top -- it's down from £11.99 to £4.99. Ladies looking for a suitable summer wedding outfit might want to check out the Hobbs sale. While full-priced Hobbs stock is on the pricey side, its discounted dresses, jackets and accessories have up to 50% off -- and definitely strike the right note for a friend or relative's special day. Another brilliant bargain available this weekend is this Gone With The Wind collector's edition box set. It contains four discs, featuring both the classic film and a collection of extras that includes hour-long biographies of the two main stars. The best part is that it's reduced from £13.99 to £2.98 at Amazon -- frankly, readers, I do give a damn! If you're the practical type and would rather find sale items to spruce up your home, there are plenty to be had this weekend. Homebase is offering up to 50% off a range of indoor and outdoor goods in its sale -- plus a host of other deals on paint and flooring. Most offers are due to end on 12 July. The Ikea in-store sale has also been extended -- discounts on selected lines will now be available until 13 July. Minimalists' favourite The White Company is also offering up to 40% off a wide variety of bedding, clothing, home accessories and gifts in its clearance sale. This is one for children and nostalgic grown-ups: TheBookPeople is currently retailing all seven books in The Chronicles Of Narnia series at £6.99 -- that's £33 less than the RRP. Anyone who'd like to try online grocery shopping might be interested in this introductory offer from Tesco. Buy £50 worth of groceries online, enter the code XXD946 at the checkout and get your shopping delivered absolutely free. For those moments when cooking is just too much hassle, Yo! Sushi restaurants have an offer that may tempt you. Fill in the form on the company's website to get your free 'Summer Passport', which will entitle you to 50% off your food bill every Monday and Tuesday until 19 August. Voucher code heaven can be found at myvouchercodes.co.uk, a website which lists a range of discount codes and printable vouchers to help you save on your everyday shopping. You may also want to check out codes.co.uk and hotukdeals.com. And Amazon fans looking for a bargain should take note of Price Cut Review, a nifty website that lists all current Amazon products selling at half price or less.
