Save money - be a funny shape?!

I was chatting to a work colleague today (not in person you understand, does anyone do that anymore?) about money saving and asking for her tips As she is ten years younger than me I wondered if she might have a different take on things and some ideas I hadn't thought of before - and she did! "Be a funny shape", she said, "like me, I have no hips so I get the small jean sizes no-one else can fit into, so I snap them up in the sale."

Hmm, it got me thinking. I'm a size ten top and bottom so I thought - well I won't be able to take advantage of that. How wrong I was! If you think about it, there is probably something about you that isn't, how shall I say it, regular? So for me, it's my feet - I'm near enough a size 9 now, which is pretty huge for a woman. That means I can snap up whatever I want in the sales as no-one else wants that size, bonza! 

What do you think? Have you picked up any irregular sized bargains?!
