5 CONSUMER CHAMPION
moneysavingexpert.com This thrifty site deserves to be your financial best friend. What makes Moneysavingexpert exceptional is that it is on the side of the consumer. Run by Martin Lewis, a UK journalist and broadcaster, it combs the terms and conditions of every financial deal around so you don’t have to — and Lewis almost takes offence if you spend over the odds. The basic design may not look much, but the invaluable advice on reducing problem debts alone is worth a visit. You will also find the best deals on purchases from mortgages to nappies, and a devoted forum of money-saving followers keen to share. An e-mail arrives weekly with the latest deals. Short of bashing you over the head with a brick, Lewis could not try harder to save you money. Sally Kinnes
