If you’re a regular Primark shopper, you could save yourself a small fortune with his hack which could see you get money off the store’s latest must-haves
Primark shoppers can get money off with a little-known trick, but there’s a catch.
Many people who shop regularly in store could save a small fortune with this hack. Some employers offer their staff benefits through a scheme known as Salary Extras.
There, workers can buy gift cards for various stores at a discounted rate. High Street names include Currys, Asda, Argos and many more.
Among them is Primark, which offers people a generous 9% off. It might not sound like much but it means people could save £9 for every £100 they spend. That could go a long way for those who find themselves shopping there regularly.
The Salary Extras website states: “Salary Extras has evolved over many years to become a best-in-class employee benefits solution, housing an unrivalled range of employee benefits designed to offer something for all your employees.
“The platform has flexibility at its core and can grow with your business to ensure it consistently meets our needs to help you attract, retain and engage top talent.
“Employee benefit scheme options, include: financial wellbeing; health and wellbeing; lifestyle and discounts; salary sacrifice schemes; and workplace benefits and commuting.”
It’s best to check with your employers whether they have opted into the scheme.
The news comes after the retailer announced a multi-million pound investment into new stores across Europe. This investment builds on the launch of its Click + Collect trial.
Today, it has 190 stores and employs more than 30,000 colleagues across the UK. Outside of the UK, customers can find Primark stores in 13 other countries.
This year Primark also celebrated 50 years on the Great British High Street – although in Ireland, it’s known as Penney’s.
