SAVVY WAYS TO SAVE ON technology

NEED NEW TECH FOR THE FAMILY? YOU COULD SAVE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS WITH THIS ADVICE

Need a new phone? New laptops for the kids? Maybe a monitor or extras for your PC or laptop? We’re always looking for ways to save, but sometimes when it comes to tech we tend to pay top dollar when we don’t need to. All you need is a little know-how. Follow these expert tips and tricks to save.

CONSIDER A REFURBISHED DEVICE

Refurbished technology is a great option when you don’t have the cash to splash out on the latest big-brand devices. Do your research on who are the best resellers and read reviews. You can often get desktop PCs and laptops that do everything you need them to do at around 25 per cent less. There are ex-government refurbished computers for sale, for example. And some big names like Dell have their own “Reconditioned and Overstocked” outlet.
