2022

Mums deserve the world, but treating her this Mother's Day needn't cost it. There are many ways to show her how much you care, but at little expense. We've come up with a list of thoughtful activities so you can spend time, not money, this year including a family games night, a DIY spa day and cooking dinner. 

Veganuary (where people try veganism for January) is like Christmas for vegans as it's when most of the new products and deals launch. As a vegan of over 17 years, I've handpicked the top deals and latest offers to help you save money (as well as animals and the planet). Have a scroll through, or jump to the deals:

With the festive season in full swing, the Deals Team put their heads together to uncover answers to the true questions of Christmas. No, not Why is my turkey always so dry? or Who writes those terrible Christmas cracker jokes? But Who sells the best mince pies? Is it mince 'pie in the sky' to think that a 99p box could be tastier than one retailing at £12.95? Wait and see. Brandy butter and forks at the ready all, as this is: The MSE Mince Pie Taste Test 2022.

It's that time of year again, and one of the big beauty Advent calendars MoneySavers wait for has been released. Once again, Boots is offering two No7 Advent calendars at different price points. I've got the info on what's inside them and I've done the maths so you can decide if they're worth buying.

The cost of the weekly grocery shop has been steadily rising, but this week there's a way to get £15 bonus cashback when doing an online shop at Asda, Tesco, Sainsbury's or other major supermarkets via a popular cashback site.

There are many versions of the classic Monopoly game these days but one that many fast-foodies look forward to each year is McDonald's Monopoly. If you're going to eat under the golden arches or order a McDelivery, this promo can be a fun way to win a 'free' bite to eat, or if you're lucky, something bigger. 

You can get FREE access either in person or online to many historical sites and tourist attractions including Shuttleworth House and gardens, Chartwell House (home of Winston Churchill), and Powis Castle as part of heritage open days across the UK in September.

With Easter fast approaching (and honestly, just for a bit of fun) we thought it was time to bring back the MSE Easter egg taste test. This year it's even more egg-citing as we've included vegan options too, with 10 eggs – six traditional and four vegan, a combination of supermarket and branded eggs. It was up to MSE staff to decide which they thought was 'tastiest' and 'most expensive.' Let's hop to it!
