With Captain Cash’s help, we’ve put together the BIGGEST and BEST money-saving guide EVER - so what are you waiting for? Start saving NOW! The first step is to sign up to Captain Cash’s fantastic new website.

▲ Captain’s saving tip on car insurance

MAKE sure you give an accurate figure for your annual mileage when you get a quote - if you overestimate, your premium（保费）will rise.

▲ Captain’s saving tip on home insurance

Don’t overinsure your home - by sticking to the rebuild cost (the amount that really matters), you're covered if there’s a disaster. When in doubt seek independent advice.

Plus, pay your insurance policy in one hit, if you can. Many insurance companies charge higher interest rates when you pay in monthly installments.

▲ Captain’s saving tip on entertainment

BUY the latest CDs online from HMV via Captain Cash for great price deals. For instance, The Friends 15th Anniversary Complete Collection: 40 DVD box set is just £69.99 with free UK delivery - saving £30 on the RRP (Recommended Retail Price).

▲ Captain’s saving tip on utility bills

DON’T be loyal to expensive suppliers - always check out the best deals. Getting gas and electricity from the same company and paying by direct debit instead of cash or cheque also lowers the annual cost of your bills. You can also shave money from bills by turning appliances off, rather than leaving them on standby, and by turning the heating down by a degree or two.

I still remember it was in the winter of 1990 that, together with the help of my older sister, I　　　 down my wishes for Christmas onto a piece of paper.

The next day, our parents sat us down in the living-room, with 　　　 expressions on their faces. As it 　　　 , they had seen our wishes, now wanting to talk to us about one wish 　　　 — the puppy. For a moment, I held my breath, but was 　　　 　 when they told us that they weren't against a puppy. What they 　　　 　 against was putting it under the Christmas tree. That was not a good idea.
