21 Days Before Renewal!
Fascinating information on ITV's Martin Lewis Money Show!
With regards to car insurance renewal, based on data analysis within the industry,
the best time to grab the best possible deal is to renew your policy 21 days before
the policy is due for renewal.
I'm sure that this is what 'The Duke of Hazard', otherwise known as Prince Philip
will be doing when his car insurance comes up for renewal!
Happy motoring folks!

Save Money through Free Gifts
I had been contemplating buying a calendar for £10.
Then I thought of buying a cycling magazine for £4 which included a free calendar.
Then I noticed that next Sunday, the Mail on Sunday will be giving readers and
purchasers a free calendar.
Since my partner, she who must be obeyed, buys the Daily Mail in any case, this
effectively means that I will have saved between £4 and £10.
The moral of the story being, don't rush into hasty, unnecessary purchases!

Using Price Comparison Services to Grab a Bargain!
In my new year quest to save money, I have to confess to learning the hard way, when in an attempt to support local business, I ventured into a local shop to buy a HP 302 XL ink cartridge for my newly acquired HP Envy 4527 printer.
I committed the cardinal sin of buying the above mentioned product for £34 without shopping around and doing my research. Talk about learning the hard way, as on returning home, I decided for curiosity sake to check out the price on Viking Office Supplies' website. To my horror, the identical item was on offer for £17 (normally priced £21).
It can be a good idea to use a price comparison website, such as Pricerunner, Kelkoo or Pricespy, in order to compare prices. In this instance, the cheapest price came in at £10.89.
Being sceptical, my only concern was that I was not familiar with the name of the company. This might call for further research, or scan down the list until you see a company which you feel you can trust.
In the case of Pricespy, I believe you can by using their app on your mobile phone, just scan the barcode of the item in question and get instant results in the shop.
Certainly it's a great way to save a great deal of money on everyday items, just by doing some research.

New Year's Resolution!
Happy New Year to you all!
This is that time of year when we feel obliged to follow the status quo and commit to a new year resolution. Nine times out of ten, it relates to eating less or drinking less alcohol!
Second in the popularity stakes, might well be greater exercise and curbing one's spending habits and putting one's financial house in order.
While thinking about this concept, I decided to put a new spin on my new year's resolution. As you may expect, it relates to financial matters and the continuous quest to cut down on costs and at the same time, generating additional income.
Another habit at this juncture is to take that decision to keep a diary. My intention for 2019 therefore is to keep some sort of a diary, recording my efforts to seize on any opportunity to reduce costs, save money and make money.
