we are all saving hard, weather its for the future, car or just for a rainy day, what can you save a month and where do you put it, yes you have your isa, bonds and so on, but what happens if you fill your isa rate per year, where else do you put your cash,

Sorry to say but cash doesn't cut it these days. More research needed mate!!!

Investors going to Germany with zero or negative returns for safety

Look to growth investments.

I resorted to making flour and water pancakes for a snack tonight.

They tasted crap. :rolleyes:

I also have a freezer full of 17p and 28p 'reduced' loaves of bread.

Just hoping I have enough marge now. :doh

I just love seeing how much I can buy for pennies. :D

Of course, but fortunately I managed to get some of that double-strength concentrated squash stuff at a bargain price too (didn't realise it was double-strength until the first glass polished my fillings to a sheen and left me practically unable to talk for 5 mins). :cwm24:

I may have to call upon my stock of Fairy Liquid bottles with a few drops left in the bottom soon, plus other things in the emergency cupboard...before the packaging becomes as out of date as the contents. :rolleyes:

We're also having carrots with everything at the moment, because I managed to grab about 2 kilos of them for 12p. :)

The Tesco own brand 54p sausages however were revolting, but I forced them down.

Their cheap cream crackers are like eating a piece of dry flavourless cardboard, so I'm considering making my own by toasting some flour and water mix under the grill (a trick I learned during my miss-spent youth).
