Hello All!

Those lazy days of summer have really taken their toll. We at the LetsBuyIt offices have found our waist-bands steadily increasing over the summer and have now decided it’s time to get back in shape!

So this week, we want to know if you exercise regularly? After all, not only does regular exercise have astonishing physical health benefits, it is also extremely good for your mental health, helping you to banish the blues as it gets colder this year.

So…Do you like to exercise regularly?

This week's survey at LetsBuyIt.co.uk

a. Yes! All the time, I love to keep fit

b. I try to when I have the time

c. No, I am far too busy to exercise

d. No, I have absolutely no interest in staying fit.

Make sure to let us know at Letsbuyit.co.uk!!

Now for last week’s hotly anticipated results…

Last week's survey at LetsBuyIt.co.uk

Last week, we asked you how much you normally spend on clothes per year and the results were so close all we really know is that you all like to buy clothes! Thankyou for your overwhelming response which provided us with rather difficult to decipher results this week with 30% of you spending over £4000, 30% spending between £2500 and £1500, 10% of you spending roughly £1000 and 30% of you only buying to suit your needs with no real interest in fashion.

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

- 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!

This week we are talking about how often you make the most of being able to personalise and customise your goods online. Buying goods online means that you can more easily customise anything you can think of and get it delivered straight to your door, or someone else’s door if you have made is as a specialised gift for someone!

We would like to know how often you use this option, so our Survey of the Week is:

What kind of customised/personalised products do you buy online?

• T-shirts and other clothing
• Greetings cards and calenders
• Personalised gifts

We asked:

What type of products do you buy most online?

However Fashion and Beauty and Sports and Leisure came joint second place, each getting 25% of the votes.

This just shows that there isn’t just one category of products that people buy online, it is a good mix!
