Hello all
I joined this website in March this year. I absolutely adore it and have now started to see some BIG savings/gains. For example:-
1.I have shopped at Tesco for three years and never knew about discount codes. I have since saved £'s - at least £100 off my food bills so far over the last few months. Also - I am now aware that I can get some really good deals with the Tesco Clubcard Points - VERY HAPPY. I enjoyed a meal out for four people FOC at Ha Ha Bar in Leeds - Very nice! (£90)
2. I was an existing standard Sky customer and I REALLY wanted Sky Plus for Xmas. Was just about to pay £179 for the privilege when I looked on here and thanks to previous posts managed to get it for just £49 - so, a saving of £130.
3. I switched my mortgage last year and have just been granted a cheque for £195 from Northern Rock due to Martins & fellow posters advice.
4. I signed up to Quidco and made what I class to be £140 of FREE MONEY!
5. The travel tips forum is excellent for bargains on holidays and I have definately saved myself AT LEAST £300 from this site alone.
So, I reckon, just on these things alone I am better off by at least £900!!!!!
A BIG BIG THANK YOU To Martin and fellow MSE's!
I am planning on contributing some of this to The Salvation Army for their Xmas appeal (Im not associated with them AT ALL - just think them a worthy charity!).
My other half is getting a bit worried about me cos Im always going on about "Martin" BUT, he doesnt complain when we save some dosh!
Hope the above helps other posters in some way!
