Cash-strapped citizens still need a holiday - How to pay for your holiday
With the tabloids constantly reporting on how household bills are forever spiraling upwards it's nearly always the luxuries like holidays that people tend to cut back on when faced with higher energy bills, higher mortgage bills etc.
So rather than just putting your next holiday on your credit card and trying to forget about it, are there any clever ways you can get to go away on a holiday and not face a huge bill with high interest afterwards?
Ok, ever thought of the amount of unused junk you have lying around your house? Have you seen how much people are paying for this sort of stuff on eBay.co.uk?
Seen the Halifax advert which promises £100 if you move your current account to them? (£1000 or more paided in every month)
What about switching energy supplier? There are online comparison sites like Uswitch.com which will tell you if you can save money by switching. Some will even give you cash back for switching...
Of course you can also save a bucket load of cash by buying your holiday online, depending where you want to go this will either be cheaper as a package holiday or separate flight + hotel/apartment. The best advice is to shop around and compare prices!
