    Oldies, newbies, (lurkers too) :hello:

    Was to spice up fish n chips
    Then click on
    Save on cleaning
    And get cracking with those tips!

    (Or feel left out in the cold :( )
    Dive in and
    introduce yourself
    Get posting! Do be bold!

    If you need to know an answer
    (
    Baking, cooking, gardening too)
    Or some other “home” based topic
    Then our Old Style’s here for you!

    Domestic bills you’ll find may be reduced

    vent about bad service

    No matter what your reasons for coming
    Whether
    Debt/Savings (or DIY!)

    variety of forums
    Where your query/answer will apply.

    For topics more :think: … versatile ;)

    If you feel you do not gel straight off
    Feel ignored? (Or confidence waivers? :confused: )
    Please remember Martin’s mantra
    Be nice to your fellow Money-Savers!”
