Hi ,

Speaking of chocolate, we've teamed up with the Chocolate Trading Company who are offering you an exclusive 12% off all their products when you use the code MAGPIE12.

This week is also British Sandwich Week, so we show you how you can make money with a mobile sandwich business.

It's not all food though - if you've got an upcoming job interview, a first date or any other 'first' then you should read our 9 ways to make a good first impression on no money. A first impression is very important so make sure you're in the know!
