Money saving expert is a website started by the famous newspaper consumer finance journalist Martin Lewis in 2000. It is a consumer resource website that helps you to save money by finding the best deals available out there. They have various avenues through which they tell the users of the website about the best deals available so that you can save your money. The avenues range from emails to various forums where you can discuss your experiences and how the tips from the website have helped you. The best part about website is that they do not charge the users for using the services and they do not carry ads on their website. They believe that companies sell their product and spend millions on advertisements and various other promotions to make profits. The consumer helps them to make their profit by buying their products. The only thing missing is the buyer’s manual to the cheapest deals in the market. The website was created to plug in this gap. The content in the website is backed by research done by Martin Lewis and his team.

Before, Martin Lewis used to send tips of the best deals that he spotted to his friends through email. Soon the email started gaining acceptance as his friends were forwarding the mails to their friends. He compiled a list of email ids and started sending out these tips. The list started growing and he soon realised he could start a website which contains a compilation of all these tips. He started the website and ever since then the website has been growing fast and with consistency.

The main avenues through which information that contains tips and various other money saving and credit rating improvement strategies is sent out are email, articles, guides, forums and the various tools that are used to plan your budget etc. The email service is the mainstay of this website as the whole process was started by email. The fact is that most of the good deals expire within a week. You need to know about these deals as soon as possible so that you can use them. Now checking the website everyday is not practical. Hence it is a good idea to leave your email id with the website so that the team can send you weekly tips that help you save money. The other deals that do not expire as fast are compiled into articles and posted on the website.

There are also guides tell you about the various strategies that you can use to save money while buying products. These guides are updated as and when there are changes. The forums attract thousands of people who discuss and share various money saving ideas and tips. This is what makes the site a force to be reckoned with. The forum is divided into a number of mini communities that are basically various categories like bargain spotting, clearing debt, using credit card efficiently etc.

This website is popular amongst its users and the public because of the nature of the tips and other advice it gives. It also makes the website extremely useful for its users as you get access to the best money saving ideas and tips.

The car financing comapny called Mitsubishi Motor Credit, doesn’t seem to be a very well run company and is not consumer friendly. This is based on my own personal bad experiences with the company.
