Butlins saving

Just wanted to share, hopefully it will help someone...

I booked a butlins (bognor) break last friday for my family for half term week, paid an eye watering sum of money but I logged on today and saw they were advertising the same break for cheaper than I paid so I called them and they told me they can match the new price as it was within 7 days of my original booking.

So we get the same break with all the extras with no changes for £133 less!

If you book a Butlins break I recommend getting a quote for the same break a week after you book and you might get lucky! I did!

They were so friendly and put the money straight back on my card, can't wait to go!

    Half term...one of the most expensive times of the year to go.

    Naughty I know but I pulled the daughter out of school and went in term time for £99 for the whole week but with no extras at all.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p
