    Another vote for Dchurch from me too. His advice ages ago gave me the confidence to challenge my bank which I did successfully. OK not to the extent of others but the principle is the same.

    I nominate http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=169247&page=5&pp=10 as this money pig is very do-able for anyone.

    Having read all the nominations and gone to the threads to read about the topics. I think the Mortgage Pig is the best.

    Oh pressed the thanks button instead of the quote button. Doh!

    Me too, such a simple suggestion creates such fab results! :rotfl:

    Me three! It's a brilliant way of making you think twice before spending, also a convenient place for loose change.

    Wish I could get hold of one of Martin's "Make me rich" pigs though, I could pay off the whole street's mortgages!!
