If you can manage a minimum amount each month (normally around £25) then look at a regular saving account. Otherwise, if you intend to keep the money long-term try to get a cash ISA as this will save you money on tax. If it is just for an occasion next year, get an instant access savings account, if you are in a town look at the banks on your high street and get one with them or get an online banking one. Money Supermarket does a comparison based on your circumstances."Every single person has at least one secret that would break your heart. If we could just remember this, I think there would be a lot more compassion and tolerance in the world."— Frank Warren0
