Post links to decent online retailers - clothes, books, etc. If you stumble across any discount codes, post those as well. Kicking off - www.asos.com has a cracking range, and prices aren't too bad if you get in with a discount code or sale In terms of books, I always hit up www.abebooks.com first and foremost. Second-hand books for $1 (plus shipping? Too easy!
