Hello

Hi there 12Michael see from the forums you live in Brackley. I'm in Kettering. Doesn't seem to be too much response from Northamptonshire does there!

Hi. I'm not surprised by the lack of response. It took me fourteen attempts to create a local nickname! Now will I remember it? Wonder if there are many Gransnetters in Northants? Be interesting to see how Gransnet Local pans out

Yes it will. Will watch with bated breath!

This does not bode well. I keep forgetting about the local site and I set myself up on it. No hope really.

TIPS TO CUT COSTS OF SHOPPING

USE VOUCHERS: Studies show seven in ten consumers now use money-off coupons which can cut the cost of items by up to 70%. Look online, in magazines and papers for offers and don't forget to save box top and label coupons on items.

CUT A DEAL: Bogofs (by one get one free), buy one get one half price and even three for one deals are becoming more popular, with up to a third of lines on promotion in some stores. These are worth taking for store cupboard and cleaning products, plus dried and tinned goods, which keep. But consider swapping fresh food 2-for-1s with a friend or neighbour so you both benefit.

COMPARE PRICES ONLINE: Before you hit the stores, look online for latest deals. Or use a comparison service like MySupermarket.co.uk which automatically shows the cheapest shop for each item in your trolley.
