Please put a penny in the old mans hat...

Maybe we ought to pause for thought on this one after all we wouldn’t like to offend any senior citizens with a bizarre reverse mugging and to be honest what can you buy for a penny these days? Not a lot. And yet it remains true that if you look after the pennies, the pounds will look after themselves.

As belts have (sadly only figuratively) become tighter many of us have adjusted our views on what constitutes value for money. Certainly actual cost has relevance but, particularly when it comes to conferences and events, there have been some fantastic opportunities to take advantage of venues offering fabulous rates and extras thrown in.

It’s a little ironic that when no-one is spending everything costs less but by the laws of supply and demand it seems to make sense. So where are we now? Heading back towards the halcyon days of big spends? Probably not, but in this interim period when the offers are still standing and the money is beginning to flow, there are definitely some fantastic deals out there.

If you need help tracking them down, give us a call.
