Hey there
Sorry for the lack of posts over the past few months, I have been very busy with univeristy myself. Also I have been looking into new directions for this blog and I am glad to inform you that a brand new blog will be launched in the next week or so with its own domain etc! Don't worry all the current articles will be uploaded.
If you would like to get involved or have any suggestions, drop me a comment and I'll get in touch.
Watch this space, I will post info about the new blog and let you know when it's up and running over the next week or so, and of course let you know where you can find it!
Thanks for reading

Haggle your Way to a Great Deal
Hello there! A slight change to the promised ISA's Explained post, don't worry, this will come tomorrow or the day after, just doing some last minute tweaks, Anyway....
Pretty good day today, basically my contract phone with three ran out last month, and to be honest I haven't enjoyed my experience with them at all, in fact it's been one of my worst, so I decided to give them a call to cancel my contract, they did the usual 'we have some great offers', and I did my usual stubborn 'I don't wanna know!' act. After a while they offered me a great deal (even though I wasn't going to admit that!), 500 minutes and 1000 texts, usually £35, mine for £27.50. Anyway, after a few minutes I got them down to £25, and then hey presto! A brand spanking new Sony Ericsson's k610i, a great contract, 6 months free insurance, next day delivery, all for £20 a month, I think this is a very good deal, and just goes to show what you can do by acting like a bit of an arse and being really grumpy on the phone.
So this has taught me a lesson....challenge people, and they will move just to keep your custom!
I will get going and create a guide for haggling yourself a great deal on almost anything!
