It\u2019s difficult to avoid the lure of the high street sale, but modern consumers are finding alternative ways to satisfy their need to nab a bargain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a survey of 2000 UK women conducted by LoveSales.com<\/a> we found that despite 63% of UK women saying they love saving money in sales, 74% are fed up of trekking round shops during busy sale periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked for reasons why, 70% say they hate the queues and crowds. 68% blame their outrage on having to sort through messy piles of sale items and 58% are frustrated at not being able to find their size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there\u2019s a problem. 75% of women confess that they \u201clove\u201d shopping, 25% say they are addicted and 92% of those who enjoy a bit of retail therapy say it cheers them up after a bad day at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
