Nearly-new market can keep Christmas costs down

NEARLY NEW IS THE “NEW” NEW!

It is reported that the average family can spend up to a whopping £700 at Christmas, while the lowest price expected for a family to pay is £182. The easiest way to save money this Christmas is to shop for quality nearly-new items at your Local Jack & Jill Market.  Thousands of shoppers collectively tell us every month across all our markets about the fantastic savings they have made.

One happy shopper recently told us “This is the sixth Market I have been to, and every time I leave with a bag full of fantastic goodies for my boys which I am putting away for Christmas, I will be all finished soon and will probably have spent under £100”

Our children don’t know or care that an item has been played with and loved before it reaches them, in fact I am sure we can all relate to how they always seem to get more enjoyment playing with toys everywhere else that you go.  If it’s New to them then as far as they are concerned its NEW!

There are lots of reasons why its sensible to shop at The Jack & Jill Market, here are our favourites:

1. Everything is cheaper – Your money goes a lot further!
2. Your money stays in the community – You are buying your items from local Families and helping their family budget at the same time as yours!
3. The Thrill of The Hunt – Scouring the Market for that must have item at an unbeatable price is exciting in a way retail shopping isn’t!
4. Its Green – Buying nearly new cuts down on the amount going to landfill!
5. It’s All Under One Roof – Generally you can find everything you might need or want all in the same place and leave with it that very day!

A recent stallholder told us “I am thrilled to have made over £300, that’s money which is going into the Christmas fund and will make a huge difference”

Join us at the very last Jack & Jill Market in 2012 on Sunday 9^th December at Meadowbank Stadium from 10:30-1:30.  It’s going to be bursting with bargains to stuff your stockings and treats for under your tree as well as all the rest from start to finish!
