Hello, have been reading this site for the past month or so, wish I had found it earlier!

so far, as a direct result of this site I have -

switched energy suppliers saving £380
paid off a loan early saving £ 174.00 in interest
got a discount on Sky for 6 months saving £159.00

also discovered Topcash and using that for all my purchases online, so far accumulated £85.00 ! :T:T

  • Good Day,

    All the happiness of the new joint venture. Although it is possible to feel lonely at times (regional area), it is not. There's a lot of us - all the nuts in a healthy enough to bite the bullet and declare the independence of our business. And who says we can not?!

    Well done Bertie!
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.
