Spend it Widely

Dom and Vix

Well hello there. Glad you’ve found us here at Spend it Widely. What is ‘Spend it Widely’ you ask? Good question - it’s a non-stop comedy romp through the world of travel hacks (free upgrades anyone), holidays, secrets to getting more when drinking cocktails and eating out, and generally helping you live beyond your means without overspending. Some say we’re funny, most people say we’re a little insane, we think it’s all a bit of a laugh - and the champagne certainly helps.New episodes every other Wednesday.

Vodka Watermelon....wait, what were we talking about again? This week we try and talk about looking after yourself / exercise and how to not over-spend. Vix also has a moan about something (as does Dominic because he couldn't resist). Want to find out what we shouldn't be telling you? Well then you'll just have to listen. Join our attempt at advicing (it's a word) which actually lands somewhere between comedy and utter nonsense, although still hopefully funny.

Let us fill your earholes with real life, learned-the-hard-way insight into everything from complaining effectively to why Aperol Spritz is just marketing style over substance. In episode two of Spend It Widely we talk more about how to live the champagne life on a Prosecco budget using tips, tricks, hacks and subterfuge. Witty, savage observations from your new flashy best friends who seem to spend wildly above their means with no real indication of where their cash comes from - we all know one. We’ll show you what’s behind the curtain. Perfect commute listening. Is it comedy, is it genuinely useful information, is it just utter utter nonsense for twenty minutes of your life? Yes, the answer is yes

In Episode Nine of Spend it Widely we talk about trains, furniture and much, much more. Trains can cost the earth so we’ll give our tips on doing them for a bit less cash. Online furniture is great, but what are the pitfalls - we try and make our moan about made.com into a funny moan. Finally, Vix admits something incredibly embarrassing - I don’t think we’ll ever think of her the same way again.
