MANY HOUSEHOLDS ARE QUIDS IN

THREE-QUARTERS of British households have saved money during the lockdown, according to figures.

UK households have saved an average of £300 on day-to-day expenses as they stop going to restaurants and the cinema, and slash fuel bills as cars sit unused up and down the country.

Not paying gym memberships and TV sports packages have also saved a fifth of households money.

However, many are still struggling, as 19 per cent reported to comparethemarket.com that they worry about making ends meet in this week’s figures. Although high, the figure was a drop from

20 per cent last week.
