More about the book[/title]
The book's blurb...
"Children cost a bomb but there's no escaping it - is there? One estimate puts the cost of bringing up a child from 0-21 years at GBP190,000, which is terrifying for any new parent. But does it really cost this much to raise a child, and how can you as a parent cut this down to manageable money?
We bring you practical and realistic advice on saving money, without meaning you have to compromise on the lifestyle of your family. Babynomics teaches parents what costs you can cut, and ways to pay for those bills you can't avoid when raising a family.
Find out: How to save money on baby equipment; Making the most of government funding for your family; The wonderful world of children's toys: Santa, peer pressure and buying for birthdays; Memorable holidays without the price tag; When to start saving money for university.
We show you how much money you can save at each stage of your child's life, and prove that having a happy family doesn't have to cost the earth."
How will the people be chosen?
75 people will be picked at random (we've a special little computer programme to do it) and announced in next week's email (if you don't already get the email go to www.moneysavingexpert.com/tips).
The FIRST 25 people from that list to get back to me will win a book.
When will I get the book?
The publisher providing these books will send them out directly though, to aid administration, this won't happen until all 50 winners have provided their name and address. So it may take a several weeks between the giveaway's end and actual receipt. This thread will be updated to let winners know when they have been sent out.
