ASOS's sample sale website where everything is £5 is finally back

ASOS has done it again with their sample sale website where everything is only £5.

Dresses, jumpers, jackets, shirts, heels, you name it - all for a fiver.

As things currently stand, there are 1770 products available for women and they are selling out quick.

Popular brands, such as Reclaimed Vintage, Collusion, Miss Selfridge and ASOS - of course - are available for purchase.

For the men's section, there are only 686 products left.

If you think this is all just a wind up, here's ASOS giving their explanation: "Yes, it's absolutely legit!

"ASOS Sample Sale is a new part of ASOS.com.

"It’s our way of giving you the last chance to buy the fashion you love, at prices that don’t break the bank."

The fashion retailer also dropped their £5 sample sale last month and it proved a hit with shoppers.

Many rushed to social media to share the news to other bargain-hunters out there after getting their fashion fix.

One Twitter user penned: "I need to know if the ASOS sample sale is legit cos I ain't about to get scammed."

A second added: "Did I just get 3 pairs of jeans from the ASOS sample sale for £18? Yes. Is the website a scam? it might be!!"

Another shopper also shared their sample sale haul along with some doubt over the deal: "7 items of clothing for £35 thanks ASOS sample sale (better not be scammed now)."

According to Manchester Evening News, one of the biggest areas of confusion for customers using the pop-up site surrounded the login process.

Instead of using their original details connected to their regular ASOS account, shoppers were asked to create a whole new account altogether.

The retailer has confirmed that this process is just a feature of the new site and shouldn't be raising any alarm bells.

A spokesperson for ASOS also explained: "The site is part of ASOS' plans to right-size its stock portfolio, as announced at full-year results in October 2022.

"In our P3 trading update on 15 June, we reported that ASOS is on track to deliver a 20% year-on-year reduction in stockholding by the end of its current financial year, with inventory in P3 down by c.15% on FY22."

While the slashed prices and vast selection of garments may be tempting, remember, as always, to shop responsibly and only buy things that you will actually wear.
