Nacktschnecken omlet Cube

I am rather pleased with myself - our combined contents and buildings insurance renewal quote was an incredible £2,500 from our current insurer This was with only one minor claim over two years ago... I have managed to get it down to £750 with another lot - result!

 

also recently fixed our gas and elec monthly payment for 3 years at LESS than we were paying already.

 

cant do much about the mortgage as that is fixed but just trying to think where else I can save!

That's really good!

Are you already on the best deal for your phone and broadband? For years we paid Virgin £25 a month just for broadband and BT the same amount just for the phone, I kept telling DH he was wasting money but he was too lazy to do anything about it so I did I switched to O2 and pay £21.75 a month for both & have free landline calls at anytime, plus free calls abroad & certain premium rate calls free too.

 

Doing a weekly meal planner and only buying what I needed cut my shopping bills in half too. If you like takeaway food there's a good book called the takeaway secret which is healthier versions of favourite meals and a lot cheaper too! I've only made the doner kebab so far but it's really tasty.

Well done but I'm in shock even at your reduced insurance rate as it's about 3 times what we pay for both. Do you live in a mansion -lol

 

Oh, and it could still be worth looking at your mortgage even though your on a fixed rate depending on penalities and what you'd save etc. Sorry if you've already done that

ah, phone and broadband, I KNEW there was something!! right that's next on my list then.

 

not a mansion abswco, but quite a big, old house - and we are 30m from the sea which tends to worry insurers rather a lot!!
