FROST’S FAVOURITE: DEALS FOR THE ULTIMATE BRIDE-BOD

Posted on by

It’s classed as one of the most stressful times for women and, let’s face it, we can all see why. With all eyes on the bride (sorry to the grooms out there), she wants to look her best and not break the bank.

We’ve done some digging and found our three top deals which all brides should take advantage of. Thank us later.

TO TONE UP


Orangetheory Fitness runs highly-effective one-hour interval-based classes – comprising of treadmill, rowing and floor exercises. If it’s nice outside, sometimes they break out the weight sled in their parking lot. The workout utilises wearable heart-rate technology to help members achieve results from the inside out.

Certified coaches understand that one-size doesn’t fit all. Thanks to the wearable technology, they have real-time data at their finger-tips to provide personalised training and give class-goers the confidence to perform at their best and achieve their goals. Snazzy, eh!

Orangetheory Fitness has six studios in the UK and you can now get three classes for just £30 by visiting orangetheoryfitness.co.uk

TO GLOW UP

Every bride wants glowing skin on her wedding day and a broad stroke of highlight can often look a little fake. Try dermaplaning. The process completely removes the dead, dull skin cells at the top of the skin and leave you with glowing, fresh skin that is super, super soft. because dead skin cells are taken off during treatment, your usual skincare will penetrate deeper and have a better effect. In addition, it combats that niggly, annoying peach fuzz which you definitely don’t want to be catching the light on the those wedding photos!

Book in at Regent’s Street Aesthetics where you can currently buy packages, including a skin peel or micro-needling, from £120 https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=15220636

 

TO GLAM UP

With any wedding, the devil is in the detail and that extends to the wedding jewellery. Often accidentally left off the wedding budget but a key part to that flawless look, choosing the right jewellery will complete the outfit. David’s Bridal offers a 10% discount to its VIBs (Very Important Brides) once you’ve purchased your dress and is a great way to save some dollar pre the big day!

launches new destinations in France, Italy, Spain and Mexico

 

HotelTonight, the first ever last-minute hotel booking app, has recently added more than fifteen new destinations to its roster of vibrant cities worldwide. This brings the total reach of the app to 12 countries and 100 destinations worldwide.

 

To tie in with the peak travel season in Europe, HotelTonight is adding popular European destinations, including Lille, Lyon, and Marseille in France; Barcelona, Madrid, and Malaga/Costa del Sol in Spain and Florence, Rome and Milan in Italy. The last minute hotel booking app is also offering its over five million global users new destinations in Ireland, Mexico and for those who prefer holidaying closer to home, HotelTonight has added Brighton to its list of best UK hotel deals.

 

This recent international expansion is part of its pledge to be ubiquitous and accessible to all last minute travellers and follows last week’s global announcement of new features including “Snap Your Stay” which allows customers to photograph and share images of their hotel with friends and other HotelTonight users, and the “HT Price Guarantee,” which guarantees its rates against competitors’ offerings.

 

HotelTonight is now partnering with almost 2500 hotels across the globe in the  ‘hip’, ‘luxe’, ‘charming’ and ‘solid’ categories. Hotels include the stunning 5 Star The First Luxury Hotel in Rome, and the charming Palazzo Vecchietti in Florence, the Kempinski Hotel Bahia Estepona on the Costa del Sol and the hip Music Hotel in Marseille. These hotels and others across Europe are perfect for an impromptu weekend break. There are also many more hotels more on the mid to basic level which are perfectly suited to business travellers’ needs.

 

At the same time as adding these new destinations, the company has also expanded its European operations, relocating to a new, larger office in London’s Covent Garden and building out the team with new Country Managers for Italy and Spain.

 

The Hotel Tonight app offers unbeatable deals on hand-picked hotels, with bookings opening at midday and closing at 2AM. Last minute travellers can book a hotel in less than ten seconds with three taps and a swipe, starting that day for one night or more.

Investment capital firm set to salvage Game

Posted on by

Following on from Junior Smart’s articles on Game Group going into administration, an announcement is expected from the investment group, Opcapita, that it is buying a large part of the troubled Game Group out of administration.

However many experts believe that the Game Group needs to change its approach in order to survive in this tough retail landscape.

Danny Jatania, a consumer champion and CEO and Chairman of Pockit, says, “If a company like Game is to survive, it’s imperative for it to adapt and innovate to consumer spending patterns. Currently the high street is going through a major evolution as a result of consumers using the huge savings offered by the online retailers to purchase goods. Game will have to completely rethink its strategy and will need to work in harmony with this growing trend.”

Danny concludes, “More and more retailers are using deals, vouchers, in-store and online cashback, in the face of a fiercely competitive retail environment. It is important for retailers to extend these deals to the high street to increase foot fall as part of their growth plans.”
