Mansfield skoda was willing to knock £300 on top of deal, carfile.net got me £700 off on top of vat deal, best bit was i was dealing with the same saleman and pick car up from mansfield. Why spent time bartering with saleman when a few click got me the best deal

I get what ever is best Value. When into local TV shop as i wanted the 50" poineer TV a few years ago, it was £2699 in shop, i show then the website that was doing it for £2199 and ask if they will match it and they wouldnt, end up getting it at John lewis who match it and gave 5 years gaurentee, With minimum wage and running cost of a shop, there is no way they can complete with internet warehouse shops. i rather paid whats cheapest then filling coffers of greedy local shops owners,

CAB near end of london road has a walk in service on certain days, You have to do your sums carefully, Do you own your own home? if you live in rented/council house and your husband earn less then £25k You will be better off if both of you are not working or only work 16hours a week so they cant force your husband to go college or a full time job, this way both of you can can more quality time with the kids, When you factor in housing/council tax benefit you will have a better disposable income -
