Afternoon all! I write to you in an extremely fragile state after just making it back from a weekend away in Riga! Being the slightly tight (and very sensible) people that we are, we chose the most horrendous budget airline – Ryanair. For those of you who have never heard of them, they are masters at ‘up-selling’. Upgrades include every time of insurance that you could imagine, suitcases, check-in baggage, priority boarding, choosing your seat and (obviously) all food / drink etc. Did I mention that it costs £70 to have your boarding pass printed at the airport if you forget to do it yourself?!
Don’t get me wrong, we all had an amazing time… but a 3 hour flight with no legroom and no fresh air doesn’t do well for an already delicate being! I’ll update you all on the trip later in the week when I can actually stomach thinking about bars.
OUR BOOK HAS BEEN LAUNCHED!!
So if you haven’t already heard the big new of the day, the eBook that I co-wrote with a group of 11 other bloggers has been launched! The A-Z of Saving Money is a 26 chapter collaboration of Personal Finance hints tips and tricks. It is priced at less than $15 and makes a great ‘filler book’ – you can pick it up and read snippets at a time. Each chapter has a different theme with a different author’s take on the topic. You are essentially getting 26 mini books in one. I’m not going to lie – when I was proof reading the book as a whole, I struggled to put it down… I must admit I learned a good few things too!
And There are Prizes to be Won…
In true PF Blogger fashion, we have a great giveaway to go along with the launch! The two prizes up for grabs are:
- $250
- A Free Copy of the Book
Good luck to everyone in the competition and hopefully you will buy yourself a copy at some point! 🙂
Congrats mate! That is huge!!
Glad you made it home safe and sound. Glen sent me a copy of the book to review and I was really impressed. Good stuff indeed. Kudos!
Pleased to be a co-author. I’m glad you made it home. I hate flying these days and am always glad to be back on solid ground.
Great job on the e-book!
Ha! ….thinking about bars….that sounds like a story your head doesn’t want to remember but that we’d love to hear ;-).
Glad you are home safe and sound. Happy to be part of the ebook with you!
Our Ryanair is Spirit Airlines in the US. Very cheap but horrible service. I will be sure to check out your book
Thanks for participating in this mate 🙂
I just submitted to Amazon so hopefully that gives things a move on.
