Gifts from big name brands and high-street stores for less than a tenner
(24/06/2009)

A new shopping search engine is launching to take the hard work out of bagging a bargain for credit-crunched Brits. 10orless.co.uk brings together more than over 1,000 products from big name brands and high-street stores that can be bought for no more than a tenner - all under one virtual roof. Showcasing everything from stylish clothes, shoes and accessories to baby clothes and beauty products, the site is set to become the first port of call for shoppers looking to spend £10 or less.

The site may be dedicated to products appealing to the price-conscious public but they are far from shabby 'pound store' buys. Featured retailers include M&S, French Connection, Cath Kidson, Neal's Yard, Sweaty Betty, Big and Tall, Bench, Benefit, Mothercare and Baby Boo Organic.

What's more, in addition to products normally retailing for no more than £10, the site is updated daily with new sale and promotional items where the price has been slashed to bring it under the ten pound mark.

Sale items currently shown on the site include a French Connection utility bag reduced from £34 to £8.50, Lipsy chandelier earrings reduced from £19 to £10, and Uniqlo wrinkle-free shirts down to £6.99 from £19.99. Users can create wish lists of their favourite products and sign up for email alerts about special offers, price cuts and promotions, putting them at the front of the queue when sale stock becomes available.

Site founder Kris Rate says: "Families are searching for ways to make substantial savings on their shopping to get them through these tough times. But rather than trawling the high-street, sifting through cluttered sale rails or spending hours researching different retail sites, savvy shoppers can find great style and good value in one place - just by clicking onto 10orless.co.uk."

The home page of the site highlights 'what's new and hot', and users can search by gender, brand, product or price. If they decide to buy an item, they will be directed to the relevant page on the retailer's website. The site already features over 1,000 products from 74 different brands. New stores and goods are being added all the time, with the aim of providing an essential online destination for stressed-out shoppers.
