    Hello Shoppers,

    Oh yes, that’s right, we have another survey for you! This week we at Letsbuyit.co.uk would absolutely love to know, (so please tell us), how much you normally spend on clothes each year. If you are anything like us, you might not want to address exactly how much of your hard-earned money has been waffled away on that must-have bag or those items of pure ‘necessity’, but do not fear, our survey is completely anonymous!

    So here is our question:

    How much money do you spend on clothes each year?

    This week's survey at Letsbuyit.co.uk

    This week's survey at Letsbuyit.co.uk

    - At least 4000 £! It’s expensive to be trendy!

    - Between 1500 and 2500 £.

    - About 1000 £.

    - I only buy to suit my needs. I’m not interested in fashion at all.

    Visit us at Letsbuyit.co.uk where you can find the survey on the bottom right-hand side of the homepage, so get voting!

    Now, the results you have been waiting for. Last week we asked, “When spending quality time with your family, what do you normally do?” The results for this one were somewhat unexpected and we found that the only thing you don’t do is play video games with your family with 0% of you going for that option. However, 33% of you play boardgames, 33% play outdoor games and 34% of you do none of the mentioned activities. Some interesting results indeed!

    Thanks for reading and remember to come and visit us at Letsbuyit.co.uk where we have all the hottest deals and products to suit your needs!

    Happy shopping!!!

    • Potted plants and flowers
    • Seeds and bulbs
    • Water features and garden decor

    You will have to wait until next week to find out the results, but in the mean time, let’s look at the results from last week’s survey about Cannes Film Festival.

    Last week we asked:

    Which of these previous Cannes Film Festival golden palm winners have you seen or purchased?

    The outright winner of the survey was the traditional favourite of Pulp Fiction, which won with 58% of the votes.

    Cannes Film Festival

    Yes it is that time again, Cannes Film Festival, the top European film event of the year, starts today!

    Robin Hood, the much awaited new film from Ridley Scott, is opening the 63rd Cannes Film Festival this year. We here at LetsBuyIt.co.uk cannot wait to see it.

    Check out the trailer here:

    Tim Burton, director of many famous films such as Nightmare Before Christmas, Alice in Wonderland and Edward Scissorhands is presiding over the festival. Burton, Kate Beckinsale along with other respected actors, directors and producers will be deciding the winner of the Palme d’Or (Golden Palm).

    There will be many hopeful films showcased here both in and out of competition from a plethora of countries, we will just have to wait and see which masterpiece comes out on top.

    Cannes has run in to a few difficulties this year with nature. Just last week it witnessed storms which warranted a large cleanup operation. Waves crashed over cafes, restaurants and festival installations along the seafront.

    There are also worries concerning the volcanic ash which may disrupt flights to Nice and other airports in the south of France.

    Our survey this week on letsbuyit.co.uk is also looking at which Cannes Film Festival winners you have seen or own at home. Take part in our survey which features in the bottom right hand corner of the homepage.
