Hello ,
I thought I'd include a glam shot of me today. Last week (for the first time in a while) I had a professional make-over done so I made sure I did a little pic before I wiped it all off!
The make-over was for a photo-shoot at the Daily Mail. I've written a column for them for this Saturday full of tips to help people save money day-to-day, and they wanted a nice shot of me taken in their style...in their clothes (interesting)...so I'll be fascinated to see what it looks like on the page!
Of course, as you know, MoneyMagpie, and I, spend a LOT of time talking and writing about ways we can all save, and in particular make, money and this week's newsletter is no exception.

For a start, we've got instructions on how to get half-price train travel in May (we'll be using that information ourselves next month as we have a MoneyMagpie meeting in York mid-May), and we also have ways for you to make money from your shed and even how to make money from...ahem... sperm (there's a tough job!).
Also, as you know, we always try to bring you as many FREEBIES as possible and tonight we have a FREE webinar that will help you make money. It's all about where to invest your money safely and profitably in these difficult times. It's totally free (thanks to sponsorship from our friends at eToro), starts at

Love, Jasmine 😄
