Everyday Tips & Savings

This site covers the everyday information that saves money and time as soon as you know it, from monthly bills to the things worth sorting out before a holiday or a change of season. Instead of vague tips, we set out where to check what, with numbers and steps.

We work through looking up and cutting electricity and phone bills, finding refunds and unclaimed money, booking holiday train tickets and checking the house before a long break, and preparing for typhoons and heat waves. Widely misunderstood topics such as lotteries are covered too, with the real odds and taxes set out in numbers.

We do not publish exaggerated money-saving tricks. Each article names the official place to check and shows the calculation, so you can verify it and use it the day you read it.
