Thankyou, I've saved loads..

Thanks to this site I have reduced my outgoings quite a bit...

Just changed house insurance: down to £300 from £600 for the year.

Just changed gas/electricity providers with a projected saving of approx £100 over the next year.

Balanced transfered £5000 to a lower rate card: saving over £850 in interest if it took me 3 years to pay it off..
And in the midddle of another balance transfer of up to £5000 to a lower rate card with similar savings if it took me 3 years to pay it off.

That's my monthly outgoings reduced by approx £100-£110 helping me pay my debts off so much quicker!

Thats the easy bit down now.. the hardest bit is not spending that extra income on a new car for myself!! ;)

  • Well done Steven, Saving on bills etc is addictive isnt it.

    Keep up the good work!
    Lightbulb moment January 2006 ..This spendings got to stop..things can only get better :T
  • I have looked at saving my phone bills, but a bit more restricted there... I use my work mobile because it's free and very rarely use my house phone... I was going to try the 'threatning to move elswhere' approach to try and lower my broadband though...

    Addictive?.. sure. Satisfying?.. most definately.

    Steven
