Sky/Freeview etc
Hello all I must say, after reading so many posts where this comes up, please DO NOT tell people to go out and get a freeview box when in the process of advising them to cancel Sky. Your Sky box IS a freeview box (ie ''Sky Digital'') and you can view free to air channels (now even including Sky 3) for nothing. There is…

Good afternoon lovely DFWs :) As we seem to have decided over the last couple of weeks, it makes sense to keep the 'how much...' and challenge as separate threads so here we go :) I am not planning to spend anything today. We will be going to the garden centre later on but it's all out of the joint account so that doesn't…

I can no longer source the article so I was just wondering if anyone…
