With so much doom and gloom in the news about financial meltdown and recession, exactly what can you do to beat the credit crunch?

 

In these troubling times, the Net is the best place. There are many ways you can use it to save yourself money and have some fun too.

 

Here's my 5 top tips to beating any recession and save money

 

1) Shop online to save fuel. With fuel being so expensive, anything you can do to reduce journeys will save you cash. Nearly anything you may want or needcan be bought on the web – and usually cheaper than you can find at your local retail park. If you like to see what you’re buying, then you can at least use the Web to find the best prices, saving you money and extra trips between stores.

 

2) Find yourself bargains online. Use online auction sites like Ebay and classified ad sites such as Craigslist, Gumtree (and any local ones) to find bargains – regardless of whether you are buying new or used. If you are more determined, search the lesser used auction sites too, as they can often have good bargains.

 

 

3) Use price comparison sites. For lots of things like car & household insurance, to electricity & gas suppliers, the price comparison sites will help you get the best deal on those essential necessities. Why not make a night or two of it, reviewing all your insurance & utility commitments and see just how much money you can save yourself.
