Would not it just be marvelous to see your dresser all lined up with the latest in designer perfumes; an assortment of glamorous, in-fashion chic bottles of fragrances that only stars and celebrities seem to afford? Alas!
If you think of the price tag that each of this trendy designer perfume carry and make quick calculations it can make you sigh. If you are a realist, you know that you would probably spend a months salary if you go with the urge to buy those very tempting fragrances that are as magnificently priced as they look and smell, ranging in a price area of several hundreds of dollars to an ounce. Take heart, though. Incredible as it may sound, there is a way you can possess those star and celebrity quality perfumes without going overboard with your budget. Want to know the secret Then, read on.
So where is this supposed magic place where they have stacks of cheap designer perfumes. First off, you have to be on the alert
So, where should you look? First of all, you can check your local department stores, since they often have sales throughout the year. If they are not running any sales currently, move on. Otherwise you are going to end up paying the suggested retail price, and in my opinion, that is often overpriced. So, leave the cosmetics counters in your malls department stores behind and head for a perfume outlet.
You may not have to travel far for a perfume outlet, as many malls now have them., but if that's not the case in your area, check you phone book, or online, and find an outlet that is not too far away. It will be worth the time and effort, and you'll be satisfied when you realize just how much money you can save. You will find designer perfumes reduced in price - sometimes quite significantly - in the majority of outlets. Expect to find prices marked down anywhere from thirty to seventy percent off. You may not find all the ancillary items that are part of the line, but since you are likely looking for the perfume and not all the accompanying lotions and notions, that should be okay.
A few things to be careful of when outlet shopping. Make sure you are not purchasing a knockoff. You want to spend your money on the real deal. Even though a knockoff might smell just like your favorite designer perfume, it likely has a higher alcohol content, and more importantly, the scent will expire almost immediately.
Another option for finding cheap designer perfume is to check discount stores that sell seconds and/or last years fashions. In the USA, such stores would be Ross, Marshalls and TJ Maxx. In Canada, you can try Winners. You should be able to find a variety of perfumes and colognes at any of these establishments. And again, another thing to be careful of when shopping at these types of places. Since the bottle won't be locked up behind a counter, make sure the perfume bottle you buy isn't only half full! You want to go home with a full bottle of your new favourite scent.
The best place to find cheap perfume is on auction sites such as eBay. Chances are you won't find a better price elsewhere. A good time to check would be after the holidays, when people are starting to regift.
In conclusion, you should never have to pay full price for a designer perfume. If you know where to look, you can always find the best brands at a reasonable price.
