Help Save Money

Side Hustles, Savings & Deals.

This Week's Roundup.

Here's your weekly dose of money-making ideas, savings tips, and deals I've been loving. Let's get into it

THIS WEEK'S TOP DEALS

£50 Free Energy Credit with Octopus Energy

The energy price cap is due to rise again in July, with the average household expected to pay around £40 more per year, driven largely by higher gas costs. That makes now a good time to review your tariff and see if you're getting the best deal for your home.

If you're thinking of switching, Octopus Energy is currently offering £50 free energy credit when you join through a referral link. The credit is added to your account once your switch is complete.

Why I like Octopus:

• £50 free credit for new customers
• No exit fees on many tariffs
• Excellent customer service ratings
• Easy-to-use app and account management
• Innovative tariffs for EV owners and smart meter users

InvestEngine Referral Bonus, Up to £200 Free

Why I like InvestEngine:

• Easy-to-use investing platform
• Stocks & Shares ISA available
• Low-cost ETF investing
• Potential bonus worth up to £200
• Great option for beginners

How it works:

Sign up using my referral link
Open an ISA, SIPP or General Investment Account
Deposit and invest at least £100
Receive a bonus worth between £20 and £200

Remember that investments can go up or down in value, so only invest money you're comfortable putting away for the long term.

It's a nice little boost if you were planning to start investing anyway!
