A dad saved £75 on next year's summer holiday by cancelling and rebooking the exact same trip, after he saw the price of it had dropped...Read the full story: 'I saved £75 on next year's holiday... by cancelling it and booking it again' Click reply below to discuss.

Hi, does anyone have any tips when booking large holiday accommodation? I need a 6-8 bedroomed place around the Cotswolds/Hampshire area next May for 2 nights but the prices are extortionate! Really want it to be under £1000 but just not getting anywhere! Thanks in advance.

Activity Superstore are an utter disgrace and a rip off company. They refused to honour the treatments (massage, facial, eyebrow shape or nail file) I’d paid for and were stipulated on my voucher. New treatments to replace facial and eyebrow shape are leg massage or hand and arm massage.....nothing even similar to a facial…

Has anyone been on a coach trip in the UK, I have found a trip which is £99 each, includes a trip on a canal boat and on a steam train, a nights accommodation and evening meal. This sounds lovely but I don't really know what to expect, is it expected that we would be associating with the other attendees at all times (I'm…

I understand non resident can join the New Zealand National Trust. if one person is over 60 and another person living at the same address the annual subscription is 60 New Zealand Dollars (approximately £32 on the current exchange rate). This will allow entry to both English and Scottish National trust properties plus free…

Does anyone know if there are any offers on National Trust membership? I was looking to get a new annual membership for two seniors (age 60+) with the 25% off offered on some sites, but apparently that only applies if you've been a member for at least five years, no offers for new memberships apparently which is a shame. I…

Thinking of spending a few nights in London at New Year without breaking the bank. Will spend very little time in hotel, so as long as it's clean and fairly central it'll do. Searching on Hotels.com I came across Rooms at103 in Whitechapel. Supposedly 3*. but way too cheap IMO. No reviews on Tripadvisor. Worth a punt, or…

Hi all. So I'll be completely honest about this. I stayed in a Travelodge in London last month. I kept stubbing my toes on the bed (as did my daughter and said she also had the same problem last time she stayed in the exact same hotel). On one of the evenings of my stay, I stubbed it so hard that I broke at least one toe,…

Hi does anyone have or know someone that has a caravan to rent on the Ocean Edge site. I would need it for apx 8 weeks from mid Jan 2020 cheers, Craig

We are going on holiday in a British resort over Christmas. We are not doing any winter sports or anything but I want to get travel insurance in the unlikely event that the resort closes down because of snow over Christmas week. Does anyone know if any travel insurance would cover this? Unfortunately I paid by debit card…

Hi there, We're going to York for a few days next week for my birthday treat :j I've got a few fun things booked/planned on the itinerary We will be 'commuting' in from Paradise Pods in Storwood. Can anyone recommend a good park and ride coming from that area? Is there generally plenty of space or should we be up and out…

We're getting to that age when hotels with noisy children running around isn't the kind of relaxing break we're after. But finding adults-only hotels is much harder than we realised. Google lists all kinds of things when you search for adults-only hotels - mainly hotels than aren't adults-only. Does anyone know any way of…

After today turned out 90% better than the Met Office guys were predicting (at least in my area) I'm wondering whether there would be anything worth a visit in the Cardiff area when I'll be there tomorrow with a few hours to kill. Just don't know the locality. Anyone with a thought or two..?

Best way to do Blackpool with a teenager? Saw offers for wristbands in the summer, cant seem to find them now. Anyone aware of any discount offers for pleasure beach attractions?

Hello We are going to Alton Towers in half term - due to cost and distance it is not something we are likely to be repeating any time soon so we really want to make the most of the time we have there. Is the queuing for the monorail much of a faff and does it add lots extra onto the day timewise? I am reluctant to spend…

Read MSE Sarah's blog: 'Missed out on Glastonbury tickets? Here are five ways you can still go for FREE'

This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... I've just noticed our hotel bill only charged us for one £28.50 evening meal instead of two. Should I ring the hotel and offer to pay the rest? Unfortunately the MSE team can't always answer money moral dilemma questions as contributions are often emailed in or suggested in…
