Nice little money save I done over the weekend

Currently I have a contract with Three, on my renewal I decided to give a Blackberry a go, of course this means you have to sign up to their BBM service which is £5 on top of your standard bill.

After having the phone for nearly 6 months I decided the service was not worth it. So I've cancelled it as it's potentially £120 extra over the 2 year contract you're having to pay extra! as I've already done 6 months that means I would be saving myself £90. I then used the trade in comparison on MSE's main site and found I could get £100 for my phone.

So that's £190

Bought myself an Samsung Galaxy Mini as I'm a big Android fan and wish I went for another in the first place! which cost £70

So £190 - £70 = £120 Saved!

Every little helps I guess!
