Improve your mood by saving money this International Happiness Day with our top tips

CHEER up, everyone – today is International Happiness Day.

Saving money is always one sure way to improve your mood.

So here’s how.

WATCH THIS: Telly can be good for us, creating positive, harmonious feelings if you watch something feel-good, research says.

So go to unforgettableentertainment.co.uk, until the end of tomorrow, and enjoy discounts on lots of new films, across multiple platforms

For example, head to The Sky Store to watch Avengers: End Game for £4.99 instead of £13.99.

EAT THIS: A sweet treat always helps.

To celebrate today, Krispy Kreme are selling the limited-edition Happiest Doughnut, with smiley face.

Get it as part of their Smiles Dozen (£13.95 plus £3.95 delivery) and, until the end of tomorrow, you will get an original glazed dozen for just £1 more, usually £9.95.

So spend £18.90 instead of £27.85.

Check app for more details.

TRIM THIS: Cutting monthly bills makes is deep joy.

Smarty (sim-only mobile deals) has just revealed three for under £10 — 12GB data for only £8, 8GB for £7 or 4GB for £6.

Tesco Mobile also has great new tariffs for pay-monthly customers.

These include six months’ free Clubcard Plus, usually £7.99 per month.

This in turn doubles your mobile data and entitles you ten per cent off two big Tesco shops per month.

GIVE THIS: Doing good is great karma.

If your local Boots has a donation point, take empty toiletry packaging there and they will donate four full-sized products to The Hygiene Bank.

Also, did you know you can donate to Oxfam for free via delivery right now?

Head to collectplus.yodel.co.uk/oxfam to print a label and your items can be picked up at a Collectplus point near you for free.
