I am doing an ad for stationery at a reduced price, it says 'You'll save a bundle' meaning you will spend at lot less here than anywhere else. Is this clearly understood as saving money in Scotland or could you suggest a more local term i.e. save a fortune, save a lot etc. thanks

They're not semi-literage savages up there, you know. They do get national coverage television programmes, for example. Why on earth would you think they would have difficulty understanding such a straightforward expression?
Why not try to be more creative with your advertising in the future? Something that is different, and preferably amusing, will stand out and be remembered, which is what you need. Here's one example: More notepaper, less notes.

Save a fortune would go down better in Glasgow
