    Or Top Cash Back (sorry MIT - don't want to rain on your parade :))

    Clear your cookies after you use a comparison site and then go via one of the cash-back sites otherwise it doesn't always track. Just make sure the price isn't higher even with the cash back ;)

    I phoned Sky to ask if I had to have a land line to get broad band, as I never use the landline and find it expensive. They said unfortunately that I do but offered me half price line rental for 12 months, so £90 saved in 1 phone call!

    Think I have said it before - treat debt busting like a new found hobby - weird I know. But this way you dedicate some time to it each week and so it doesnt become a chore or an obsession (OK some hobbies are obsessions). So what you have said up there^^^^^ is very sensible.
