Hi...

Back in the UK I used to use loads on the money saving websites, and shopping comaprison sites, eg:

www.moneysupermarket.com
www.bookbrain.co.uk
www.pricerunner.co.uk
www.moneyextra.com
www.fool.co.uk

Do such websites exist in Australia? I understand that you are trying to create a money saving website along the lines of Martin Lewis' in the UK but the links I mention above are targeted slightly differently....any ideas?

Thanks

Paul

I thought this was the 'Life Of Brian' thread ! ! !

And, what's so funny about "Biggus Dickus?"

Oops, sorry...

I'm not a roman mum, I'm a kike, a yid, a heebie, a hook-nose, I'm kosher mum, I'm a Red Sea pedestrian, and proud of it!

My favourite bit...


Reg: What's the point of fighting for his right to have babies, when he can't have babies?

Francis: It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.

Reg: It's symbolic of his struggle against reality.

Default Money saving tips?

Don't waste money buying expensive binoculars. Simply stand closer to the object you wish to view.

Save money on your laundry bills. Give your dirty shirts to Oxfam. They will wash and iron them and you can buy them back for fifty pence.

Hope these help.



I thankyou

Give me that mattock and the wrenching iron.
Hold, take this letter; early in the morning
See thou deliver it to my lord and father.
Give me the light: upon thy life, I charge thee,
Whate'er thou hear'st or seest, stand all aloof,
And do not interrupt me in my course.
Why I descend into this bed of death,
Is partly to behold my lady's face;
But chiefly to take thence from her dead finger
A precious ring, a ring that I must use
In dear employment: therefore hence, be gone:
But if thou, jealous, dost return to pry
In what I further shall intend to do,
By heaven, I will tear thee joint by joint
And strew this hungry churchyard with thy limbs:
The time and my intents are savage-wild,
More fierce and more inexorable far
Than empty tigers or the roaring sea.

Romeo and Juliet Act 5, Scene 3


I thankyou
