Liz Hurley opened her own clothing store and offers huge discounts

The model and actress - who opened the "gorgeous" Elizabeth Hurley Beach boutique in Bicester Village, Oxford shire recently - is offering "huge discounts" to help people who are struggling due to the global financial crisis.

Most people are feeling the pinch financially right now, so it makes perfect sense to encourage women to shop where there are huge discounts and most things are at least 50 per cent off. My boutique at Bicester is tiny but gorgeous. It looks like a beach hut in St Tropez - whitewashed wood and a high pitched roof. It's like a little jewel."
