In a survey of 3,000 adults 66% claimed that they took their money elsewhere due to delivery costing and 49% claimed they’re more like to purchase more clothing from a brand if there was better, cheaper or convenient delivery options (Success, D and Hunter, D 2015) Topshop for example, offer free standard delivery over purchase above £50.00 (Topshop 2016). Over and above that, brands like ASOS offer free standard delivery over purchase above £20.00 (Asos 2016) thus this will have an influence on consumers as they will be fond of spending less for free cost delivery. As students struggle to find money to keep up with trends as Maintenance grant loans cease to exist anymore, Student discounts are vital for student life. In a survey of 722 UK University students it was found that 67% of students expect student discount (The Beans Group - Youth Media Company, 2015). Therefore this shows the momentous of student discount within a young market; which indicates that brands within the mass market sector need to focus on increasing annual discount and promotional codes to attract their kind of consumers.
