I always find that saving with a goal in mind is really empowering. We started saving for our own home before we got married and then made the decision to relocate to Berkshire from N Yorkshire and had to save a LOT more for that initial deposit, which is why I think this infogram is great as it gives you an idea of house prices throughout the UK.

Barclaycard Freedom Reward Card asked me to take their 60 second survey to see what shopping tribe I was part off . Barclaycard and Brunel University have collaborated to research the modern way in which we shop and how UK shoppers can now be defined into four new shopping tribes. I am a Bargain Hunter Gatherer: You're an expert at collecting the best tools, voucher codes and loyalty cards to make your budget go as far as possible, week in, week out. While the kids are doing their homework, you're doing yours - grabbing the best savings for your family. Key facts about you: You're most likely to be female, married or living with your partner and living in the north of the UK. You lot are busy. Two thirds of you cleverly juggle your home, work and financial life. You're not easily tempted by big discounts, only 35% of you have ever bought a non-essential item you didn't need because of a special offer. Home really is where the heart is - 42% of you...
amazing to see what its like price wise in other places I live in the south east so It's a lot more to save for than up north. http://www.joannavictoria.co.uk/
ReplyDeleteWow, the difference is amazing. I'm in the second most expensive city for detached houses - better start saving ;)
