Black Mood as Consumer Confidence Continues to Fall
New surveys show that consumer confidence in the economy continues to fall, hitting its lowest level since 1990.

A Christmas Spending Spree
Christmas is an expensive time of year. Even the traditional stocking, which once upon a time held not much more than a tangerine and a sixpence, now costs over £80 to fill.

However, many ordinary people do not share these views, and think that a fall in the cost of housing brings...
The Dash for Cash
Plastic is no longer seen as fantastic; with the credit crunch biting ever deeper many consumers are abandoning their credit cards and turning to cash once more. In a survey of more than 17,000 shops, it was found that cash was used for more than 60% of the transactions and accounted for nearly a third...

Recession. What Recession?
Home owners heaved a collective sigh of relief this week as the Bank of England again cut interest rates, from 5.5% to 5.25%.
