Consumers look for voucher codes for Mother’s Day

(I-Newswire) March 11, 2010 - A survey by BIGResearch for the National Retail Federation found that last year consumers planned to spend 10% less on Mother’s Day. Not only this, but the florist Serenata Flowers found that the average Brit spent 50% more on Valentine’s Day than Mother’s Day. Although Mother’s Day is important to consumers, it seems they will always look for discount codes and promotional codes to save money.

However, this does not mean that consumers need to look far for savings. Sites such as VoucherSeeker can offer customers discount vouchers and discount codes for money off products from flowers and meals out to day trips.

The recession has ensured that consumers are less willing to spend money frivolously. Although no longer in the recession, consumers are still looking for value for money. Trends which are appearing in consumer buying habits include researching products more thoroughly before making a purchasing decision, willingness to haggle for products, comparing prices online in order to establish the cheapest price and using promotional codes and vouchers from sites such as VoucherSeeker in order to get money off items.

Consumer spending online is increasing. The Centre of Retail Research found that UK shoppers spend more online than anywhere else in Europe, on average totalling £1,102. The Centre of Retail Research also predicts that internet shopping will increase, eventually hitting £42.7 billion by the end of 2010.

“Mothers Day is an important holiday, but consumers still want to save money using voucher codes from VoucherSeeker.” States Ed Hall, VoucherSeeker Director “discount vouchers such as Vodafone Promotional Codes (http://www.voucherseeker.co.uk/file/8c07f9b2387a79aa4860f829cdf713e7/vodafone-promotional-code.html) and Currys Discount codes (http://www.voucherseeker.co.uk/file/a62ac26940c49940f7f8da1eabd901e1/currys-discount-codes.html) help consumers get bigger items without hurting their pocket.”

Largely due to the recession, consumers now see the internet as offering value for money or wider purchasing options as opposed to the high street. Shopping online ensures consumers can shop from the comfort of their own homes, avoiding the busy high streets and queues. Plus, only by shopping online can consumers get discount codes and vouchers for money off items and make further savings.

When it comes to holidays and retail events the online retail market sees increased interest and traffic. Both Christmas and Valentines Day saw a jump in spending, as people flocked online in order to save money on items.

Consumers searching for Mother’s Day gifts are turning online in order to save money. Mother’s Day gifts can be expensive as the prices of flowers can double, not to mention travel expenses and trips or meals out. Using voucher codes (http://www.voucherseeker.co.uk/vouchercodes) from VoucherSeeker can help consumers to save money on items.
