Hi ,

THREE THINGS YOU MUST DO THIS WEEK

Save up to 90% on your electricity bill for just £7.75...! swap your greedy energy guzzling lightbulbs for some amazing energy saving ones today.
 
These LED bulbs are an absolutely incredible moneysaver (saving you up to £300 per year in an average 3 bedroom family home) and Dealtastic are offering these bulbs at only £7.75! With an RRP of £19.95, this is the cheapest price anywhere in the UK.
 
They're great value, and the electricity they save means that they will more than pay for themselves.
 
 
 
Feed your family for less... with supermarket prices shooting up alongside inflation, feeding a family has become more expensive than ever.  

Luckily, fab food writer and presenter Sarah Lockett has collected together her brilliant cooking tips and money-saving advice into one handy eBook. 

Find out how you can enjoy delicious food for FREE; uncover the supermarkets' sneaky tricks; discover the surprising secret ingredients that can turn any meal into something special; and get over 60 fast and easy mouth-watering recipes that will earn you the adulation of your friends and family (just don't tell them how cheap they were to make!)

Feed your family for less here. 

 
 
Snap up HALF-PRICE home insurance... Direct Line are currently offering 30% off home insurance - plus a further 20% off (making it half-price!) when you buy online here.
 
Direct Line has won a host of awards over the last few years and it's easy to see why. Take out a policy with them and you get up to £1m buildings cover and £50,000 contents cover as standard, plus you can get personal possessions cover (handy if you ever leave your phone or iPod on the train...)
 
This is one of the heftiest insurance discounts we've seen for some time.
 

FINANCE TIP OF THE WEEK: GET £100 FOR FREE - THEN £5 A MONTH AFTER THAT... 

Got a New Year's resolution? Here's one worth keeping: get yourself a decent current account!

Never mind quitting smoking, getting fitter or giving up booze - switching your current account should be at the top of your list. Why? Because a) it'll net you some quick and easy cash, b) it's really easy to do, and c) it will make your money work harder.

We think the Halifax Reward Account is one of the best current accounts around. If you switch your account to them they'll give you £100 - PLUS they'll pay you £5 each month you deposit £1,000 or more (you must earn £14,200+ to be eligible for this account).

This makes it a great little deal - switch your account here.

SAVE £933 ON CHILDCARE WITH CHILDCARE VOUCHERS

Childcare vouchers are a great way for parents to save money on the cost of nurseries, childminders or nannies - to the tune of up to £933 per year .  Childcare costs are continuing to rise every year so it's important to save as much money as possible. Find out all you need to know here.

MAKE MONEY WRITING GREETING CARD MESSAGES

Do you think most greeting card messages are bland and that you could do better? There's potentially big money to be made out of writing those little bits of blurb. It can provide an outlet for your creativity and earn you some extra cash. It doesn't take much - a punchy pun could earn you up to £150! See how here.

OFFICE STATIONERY: BEST BUYS

Are you setting up or running your own business? It's important to find an affordable, reliable supplier to avoid any last-minute envelope crises or stapler emergencies - not to mention save time, money and effort in the long run. Get the best prices here.
