Nadine took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share the tip, as she wrote: “ASOS Sample sale – 10am Friday.

“May help someone out who is struggling with finances to get a prom dress.”

She also shared a screenshot of some of the dresses that are going to be included in the sample sale, included gorgeous gowns previously listed as bridesmaid dresses.

“The Maya ones were my bridesmaid dresses and they’re really lovely,” one person commented.

“I had this dress range when full price from the bride as my bridesmaid dress and it was so lovely!” another added.

“So this is an absolute bargain.”

“I got the longer sleeve one a while back and it is a lovely dress,” a third insisted.

“I bought two of the sage green ones at full price,” someone else wrote.

“I also wore a purple one for a wedding.”

Others tagged their friends in the comments, with one writing: “Keep your eyes peeled, you might find a nice dress!”

“Didn’t think about ASOS,” another admitted.

“They don’t quite look like the right colour but I’ll deffo have a look tomorrow!”

“Not sure if you found any others but I’m gonna see if I can find a dress for my mum this time,” a third commented.

While someone else warned: “Heads up everything was sold out by 10am last month so be ready for about 9am.

“They just decide to drop it whenever.”

However, another added: “It isn’t that it sells out quick, it’s they don’t have much to start with.

Other ways to save money at ASOS

HERE are some of the best ways you can save and get the best prices at ASOS and other outlet stores.

Save money with ASOS Flash Sales and promo codes

Flash Sales are mini-sales that last anywhere between a couple of hours to a few days – such as the ‘Sample Sale’.

When one occurs, an ASOS promo code will often be advertised that can be used on a particular product or range.

Flash Sales also happen around bank holidays and other ‘special’ days like Valentine’s Day, Halloween and April Fools’ Day.

Get an ASOS birthday discount code

When signing up to ASOS, or any retailer for that matter, make sure to put in all your personal details, including your birthday, for special rewards.

If a retailer knows your birthday, they’ll send you a code two weeks before for you to use on full-price items.

Sign up to the ASOS newsletter

Again, this doesn’t just apply for ASOS, but signing up to newsletters keeps you in the loop with all the latest deals and discounts as soon as they’re announced.

By signing up, you’re usually rewarded with a new customer promo code for money off your first purchase.

Buy from the multipack section

Multipack sections often go unnoticed but they’re a lifesaver for saving money on wardrobe essentials.

For example, a plain white ASOS DESIGN women’s t-shirt costs £8* when bought by itself, but a pack of two t-shirts comes in at £15* and a pack of three comes in at £22*.

Get cheaper delivery

While it’s understandable you wan’t your new product as soon as possible, try and pay for the least expensive delivery option – even if it means waiting an extra day or two for it to arrive.

ASOS offers free Standard Delivery (usually £4.50) on all purchases over £40, too.

Find deals in the sales

If you’re looking for ASOS discounts, make sure you check the outlet.

The ASOS Outlet is great for finding cheap out-of-season stock, just as you’d expect at a regular outlet shop. You can find items with huge discounts of up to 70%.

“It’s got worse and worse!

“Wasn’t worth the wait last time – same stuff as before.”

While someone else admitted they’d been less than impressed with their purchase from the sample sale, writing: “I bought the V neck one for a wedding and the sequins came off.”

Давні майстри виготовляли прикраси з космічного металу

Серед розкішних золотих прикрас бронзового віку виявлено два предмети, що викликали зацікавлення вчених. Це браслет і півкуля, виготовлені з металу, непритаманного тодішньому виробництву.

IRELAND is set to see a major switch-up in weather, with Met Eireann forecasting “sunny spells” and “dry” conditions in just a matter of days.

The weather bosses are warning of showery rain with “unsettled” conditions over the coming days.

But the country is set to become “mostly dry” next week with plenty of sunny spells and “just isolated showers.”

Carlow Weather‘s Alan O’Reilly revealed that Ireland will see “better settled” weather with “very little rain.”

He said: “If it’s hot weather you want next week then Spain is the place to go with 40c possible again. 

“Meanwhile in Ireland, we will see better settled weather for 7-10 days, not zero rain and clear blues skies but very little rain and better weather.”

And looking towards conditions over the next few days, Met Eireann said high pressure will steadily build near Ireland next week and “the weather will turn drier”.

Met Eireann Meteorologist Matthew Martin said: “The weather will remain showery and rather unsettled over the coming days.

“But the good news is that high pressure will build in near Ireland next week, bringing plenty of dry weather.”

Showery rain will clear to the north this morning, clearing from north Ulster by around lunchtime.

It will then be a bright day nationwide with a mix of sunshine and scattered showers.

But later this afternoon, a few heavier and thundery downpours may develop in the southwest.

Highs of 17C to 21C with mostly moderate southerly winds.

Matthew added: “There’ll be a good dry and clear spells in the north and east early tonight.

“But showers in the south and west will continue and these will become widespread across the country later in the night.

“Some of the showers tonight will be heavy and prolonged. Lowest temperatures of 9C to 12C.”

RAIN SPELLS

It will be a generally cloudy start on Saturday with showers or longer spells of rain.

The cloud will break in some areas during the afternoon, especially in the south of the country allowing for some sunny spells to develop.

However, the sunshine will spark off further showers, some of these will be heavy and thundery with highs of 14C to 18C.

Showers will clear from the east and northeast of the country early on Saturday night and much of the country will become dry and clear for a time.

Sunday will be cloudy with a few showers spreading from the west but it will become sunnier later in the day.

Highest temperatures of 15C to 18C in moderate west to southwest winds.

RAIN CLEARING

It will be mostly dry on Sunday night with just a few showers in the northwest with the lowest temperatures of 8C to 11C.

Met Eireann said: “Monday looks certainly mostly dry day with a mix of cloud and sunshine with highs of 17C to 22C.

“A weak rain band will move in from the Atlantic down on Monday night to affect some western and northern counties. 

“Tuesday, patchy rain and drizzle will clear to the south in the morning.

“It will then be a mostly dry day with spells of sunshine. Maximum temperatures of 16C to 21C in moderate westerly winds.

“The current indications are that it will be mostly dry on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of next week with sunny spells and just isolated showers.”
