Top Top Bargain - All Free

This board is now one of the site's most popular. And i know many people come here direct bypassing the main site.

So let me say a few things

MoneySavingExpert.com is completely free, you're never charged. It has no advertising. It is all about stopping companies screwing us and working out how to legally screw them back.

All of this means this site is a top bargain

If you like the site please join the free weekly money tips e-mail

The site has a weekly money tips e-mail detailing all the latest and urgent ways to save. It also includes a selection of freebies each week. It is of course free and ad free too - to start receiveing it, please go to

https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/tips

Also do note joinging the tips is separate to registering to use the Chat Forum.

From the perspective of the site (and me), getting people to join up is really important as it means I can contact you when there's an urgent way to save. Also in truth it means retaining traffic which is really useful.

So if you're enjoying your time using the site and want to help, please do sign up for the weekly money tips and ask your friends to join it as well.

If you'd like to know more about the site and how it is funded go to About the site

    Basically Jo

    When you have a website you rely on people to come to you. With an email you can tell people about something without them coming to you. So the email is a way of reaching out to people. In other words next week the tart alert comes out - i hope it'll be very popular. If there was no email, then i'd have to rely to people deciding to come to the site, but the email means i can simply say "oy new tart alert, come and look"

    Being able to direct people both helps them know whats happening, but also means that the few clean revenue generating areas.
