Is Avios the Biggest Loyalty Card Rip-Off?
Hi - I'm new to the MoneySavingExpert Forum. I was moved to join when, after spending years saving our Tesco Clubcard points for Avios AirMiles, I've discovered that they are practically worthless. A few examples: you can rent a car using a comparison website for less than the price Avios charges, plus around 20,000 Avios…
Lake District (Keswick)
I'm looking for an MSE-style break near Keswick. Ideally looking for a romantic break for two; spa is optional but would be considered. This would be in early September, and I'm flexible on the number of days. I'm unsure on a maximum budget right now because I don't have any reference, but think budget(ish)! Does anyone…

Concert tickets being offered on Groupon at lower prices
Hi All, Earlier this year I purchased 5 tickets for East Coast Live for £40 each. The event is being run by AXS/Blinkbox and must not have sold well as they are now running a Groupon offer whereby you can purchase 2 tickets for £35. Obviously this is very annoying when I have already purchased tickets for over £20 more…
Any cheap self catering in Devon
Can anyone recommend any cheap self-catering places in Devon? It would be for a couple and a 4 month old baby. Ideally would like a cottage as opposed to a caravan or chalet set up as we like to be somewhere quiet. We never usually go away in the summer but I'm looking for a week in July or early August. Any tips or advice?
