Keyed into best prices

Websites are a vital source of consumer information, but beware ones with an agenda. Kya deLongchamps reports

The internet is a convenient method of making price comparisons and shopping for best value.

We need help honing our domestic budgets in the New Year. The internet is a primary research tool for consumers, but check the source of what you read. If the website is paid for by commercial firms, a professional or trade body, their interests will be represented, and in cost-comparison sites you may find only participating sponsors are included in the reckoning, so be wary.
