  • Lol! I fall slap bang in the typical demographics of being female aged 36!
    Right now I'm having amnesia and deja- vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before
  • Love the stat, 98% of the people on your page are male or female...the other 2% are what? confused?:rotfl:

    This probably has as much to do with who spends the money and on what as anything else. I would say that if you ran a quick straw poll, most of the people who make the spending decisions with regard to food shopping, utilities, clothes, insurance etc would probably be women. So they'd probably have more of a vested interest in money saving ideas.

    Alternatively, Mrs MSE actually does have something to worry about :D

    Sorry to go off topic a second, but are there any stats for this site? Do you know location of users and which part of the country participates most and least? (There seems to be an awful lot of Scottish people!!) etc etc?

    Being male in early 40s, I don't know a solitary male who uses Facebook. My wife and her friends, though, are on the thing all the time. If that's the general demographic for Facebook usage, then it explains Martin's demographics...
    I really must stop loafing and get back to work...
