Save money on entertainment in Preston

Preston, Lancashire is party to an innovative mobile network which is unavailable almost anywhere else, and has very few competitors, not just in the UK, but worldwide. People who live in Preston have only to make their Bluetooth discoverable on their mobile phones while they are out and about, and they can save a great deal of money on everything from shopping, to eating out, to entertainment.

In the upcoming school holidays it can be difficult to avoid paying full price when you are trying to keep yourself, your friends and your family entertained. With such a focus on Christmas shopping at this time of year, people very rarely have enough money for a fun day out, and even a good night in can be constrained to trash TV and a fish finger sandwich, but this need not be the case.

As you walk through the St. George and Fishergate shopping centres, or sit in the crowd at the Deepdale stadium of Preston North End, switch on your Bluetooth and see what kind of deals you can get, which can be used that same day or whenever you want. There are discounts available on shops all around Preston, as well as for online retailers and those with a national presence. But what about entertainment?

Switch on your Bluetooth and you can receive deals that can be used in bowling alleys such as Lakeside Bowling. Get two games for the price of one, and extra games for a single pound each, before moving on to the Odeon cinema and getting 25 percent off the price of your ticket. If you have not had enough of movies you can stop by Blockbuster video and get a selection of special offers on DVD rentals. The possibilities are endless, and deals are updated regularly, so keep your eye out for posters telling you there is a Bluetooth network in your vicinity.

There are usually a selection of good movies out around this time of year. With schools shutting for a couple of weeks and several bank holidays you will need to keep yourself and your children entertained. In a city like Preston which has so much to offer, it is worth looking around to find a bargain, and when that bargain can come straight to your mobile phone in your pocket, it is definitely worth doing something as simple as turning on your Bluetooth when you are in the city centre.

For Preston offers, discounts and 2 for 1 vouchers, turn on your Bluetooth while you are out and about in the town centre, and JungleDrum will send you these directly to your mobile phone, saving you money for almost no effort at all.

How to Save Money in Preston

With the UK market in its current situation coupled with the rate of inflation, it is becoming more and more difficult to afford to buy things if you’re going to pay full price for them. The cost of living has increased far more than the basic wage, so it’s pretty understandable that the number of people signing up for online discount sites has increased exponentially in the past few years, in addition to the more traditional methods of saving money, such as recycling, throwing less away, and taking coupons and vouchers from newspapers, magazines and the like.

Obviously the pinch has been felt up and down the United Kingdom, in cities, towns and villages; perhaps nowhere more so than the north of England. Competition for business is fiercer than ever before since the stakes are so much higher, with many shops having shut down, with some companies going bust entirely. Some reports suggest that high streets in the north of England are among the sparsest, with cities such as Leeds and Preston displaying up to half of their shop fronts boarded up in some areas.

If you live or shop in Preston, due to the massive competition for your money, it’s now possible to get a great deal more for what you’re paying if you know where to look. Though inflation has meant that products are generally more expensive, discounts are available on everything from holidays, to fireplaces, to days out for the family and computers. There are the usual high street window offers that there are in every city, of course, but Preston is about to see a revolution in the way people receive discount vouchers and deals.

It is now possible to receive discount vouchers straight to your mobile phone, simply while you are walking around Preston. The first venue to incorporate Bluetooth marketing technology will be Preston North End football club in their game against Oldham Athletic, where fans will be asked if they wish to receive great deals in messages that come straight to their mobile phones. By clicking yes, users will get discount vouchers that they can show to cashiers at the point of sale and receive massive discounts that cannot be found anywhere else. From an advertiser’s perspective this allows the targeting only of their specific audience, and from a consumer’s perspective they will only get deals that they actually want to use. This is an interesting study into the future of saving money in Preston and beyond.

Discounts Preston people can use are now being delivered in innovative new ways via JungleDrum, straight to customers’ mobile phones as well as online. Search the internet or turn on your Bluetooth in the town centre to receive exclusive deals.
