Hello , We're back from this slew of Bank Holiday madness (and fun) and hoping that the Coronation has injected a good bit of cash into the UK economy (TBC). I saw lots
of posts of people enjoying their time off - eating out, having picnics, going on special Bank-Holiday days out - so we hope that some businesses got a real boost.. the Met Police sure did. We ran a quick poll on socials on Friday to find out who would be celebrating the Coronation and were shocked to learn it was only 29% of our social media followers - this was very low compared to Platty Joobs fans, which saw 61% of
our followers getting festive. Looks like Charlie boy may be in for an interesting ride. |

Regarding all that is MoneyMagpie - we are back to tell you which supermarket is cheapest this month (these stats seem to change by the day), to ask are you making sure you get this £160 and are you (or a parent or grandparent) one of the thousands of people missing out on the right
pension? It really is crucial that you check this as last time we ran it, multiple people got in touch with us saying they were now getting more. And are you enjoying our new exclusive offers? Magpie Marc is working tirelessly to bring exclusive newsletter deals straight to you. They are not available anywhere else, so it is worth checking them out. Last month we had lots of people confiding in us that their main weakness during the cost of living crisis was snacks. People
are nipping to small supermarkets and corner shops and wasting money due to hunger. So, Shoestring Cottage has stepped in to tell us her own fantastic ideas to curb this habit. I also want to do a big shoutout to our founder and CEO Jasmine Birtles. Over the last few weeks she has been on
TV, Radio and in the papers telling her own truth. She has highlighted the horror of governmental attitude to poor people and is now back with her same horror at the taxing system. "The taxpayer is being fleeced" she says. So, we want to thank Jasmine for using her voice for good. Last, but by no means
least, we have a super guide to booking a bargain summer holiday and we also have our Magpie Izzy, using her own voice for the better
and starting a fantastic column on what it is like being Gen-Z in the current economic climate. She starts with the fun and, often, expensive world of dating. So, have a fantastic week, enjoy all of our money saving tips and don't forget to come follow us over on Instagram and TikTok, where we have exclusive content.

Jasmine Speaks the Truth!
|
Isn’t it lovely to know that the government’s tax take has massively increased in the last tax year? Aren’t you pleased? After all, it was so sensible of them to spend BILLIONS in 2020-22 because of lockdowns which achieved…nothing good and did a lot of harm. |
