What chick wouldn’t like to save 80% on Prada, Marc Jacobs and Chloe this season? What about up to 90% off pampering? Or a £60 shopping voucher for just a tenner. Me, me and more me!

Apprentice winner Michelle Dewberry along with her business partner Vicky Zadeh, are set to launch their new business www.chiconomise.com , the one-stop shop to save girls money on all the things we like -  fashion, beauty, lifestyle and home.

With so many sample sales, high street sales, online sales and private shopping clubs, it can all get a bit much and mind boggling!  With so much choice, saving money can be a full time job, and for Chiconomise that’s exactly what they do, they do the hard work for you.

They trawl through every private fashion shopping club, all the sample sales and the new online saving concepts that not enough of us girls know about. They weed out the ones with the catches and explain what the deal is with the others.  They even work with some fab boutique brands to offer their readers exclusive deals on items guaranteed to get people talking.  Perfect!
