Episode notes
Free Railcard via Santander
- If you are 20 to 25 years old by June 30th, open a Santander savings account and deposit at least £50 by the end of May.
- Keep the money until June 30th to receive a free four-year railcard worth £100, potentially a great deal for young people.
Shrinkflation's Sneaky Strategies
- Shrinkflation often involves clever changes like reshaping products to reduce contents while keeping price stable.
- This tactic is widespread across groceries, cleaning products, and cosmetics, making it harder for consumers to notice size reductions.
Check Energy Credit Refunds Now
- Check your energy account now, especially if you pay by monthly direct debit, since you might be owed a refund if you have too much credit.
- If you have over a month’s worth of credit at this time of year, request a refund from your energy supplier.
