While browsing moneysavingexpert.com I noticed an offer for a free Moneywise magazine and as I am trying to get wise with money, it seemed the ideal mag for me! I received a free copy in January, which should have cost £3.50. It is packed full of information on taking care of your money, for the rest of your life. Moneywise is about the same size as a sheet of A4 paper. It has a glossy cover, packed full of headings, letting you know exactly what's inside. The January copy is 76 pages long and it looks and feels like a quality magazine. Inside is a well laid out index which is split into the following sections and ...  Read the complete review

I have to admit at the outset that I received a copy of Moneywise free of charge and am rather glad that I did not pay the cover price of £4.25, although it is a worthwhile magazine for certain people which is why I have awarded four stars.

I got my first copy of Moneywise free of charge as part of a promotion they were doing in conjunction with the Moneysavingexpert site, this offer is often repeated so it would be worth checking. The magazine is packed with information on how, as the magazine title suggests, to be wise with your money. It has information on consumer law as well.
