"Mr. Thrifty's" How to Save Money on Absolutely Everything

Did you know that a refill for your biro costs more than buying a new pen? That you can return things you have bought if you have lost the receipt? That there is a way of paying your car insurance by instalments and getting ten per cent off? Or which medicines cost less than the prescription charge when you buy them over the counter? From shopping at the supermarket to booking holidays and tackling unavoidable DIY at home, Mr Thrifty knows hundreds of ways to save pounds, not just pennies. This book is based on the column in the "Oldie". It contains all the dodges and all the shortcuts, all the right phone numbers and addresses. Mr Thrifty also knows that time is money, that spending hours to save a little cash is no economy. So he also reveals secrets which circumvent systems to get the work done in half the time as well as, sometimes, half the price. He hates to see money wasted - especially yours.
