    Questions, questions, I was a secretary/PA and would have saved £1 but as I am going self-employed, as a company director I would save £3.50:D I need to be saving hundreds rather than a couple of measly pounds.

    I'm an Administrator and the lowest new price that really applies only saves me £1.90. It's a good idea though!

    Supply Teacher is apparantly the lowest price in the Education sector.

    Didn't make any difference to my husband who's a teacher. However, I'm a musician (I think I'm currently described as 'Classical Musician' for my insurance)- but I can't find anything remotely resembling that on your list! When I just put 'musician' it comes under 'artistic'- and there are things like piano tuner, violin maker etc etc but not just a regular 'musician'.

    That's funny - this worked ok for me Saturday - but now when i go to click submit the screen flashes and i'm back to square 1.
    I've checked pop-up blocker is turned off, etc but makes no difference. I've tried different job titles and the same thing happens.
    Is it just me :confused:

    It worked for me, but I did try three different variations on my job title - the one that I LEAST expected to get a good result on - Van Driver - actually turned out to be my cheapest option. :confused:

    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Mine's already the cheapest. Was advised years ago that IT manager was cheaper than IT consultant. Something about manager's supposedly being more responsible than consultants!
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J
