How much have u saved using Martins book?

Posts: 478 Forumite
I bought the book on Tuesday, (I did go to the library, and it was out! And I really needed it, so yes I did buy it!), and I have so far saved around £300!. The biggest saving so far being £200 on my car insurance. It took me two minutes on t'internet and I'm £200 richer (or £200 closer to paying of my debts!)
What is the largest saving you have made so far?
Don't you think that things like this make you more motivated?!!
I just wanted to share my happiness!!
Lo :T
