Auction Alfie has been named as the number one money-saving website by The Sunday Times.
This is such a great accomplishment and I am glad people find this unique comparison site as useful as I do.
There are now so many money-saving sites that you need a comparison site for the websites themselves — and that’s where many are now focusing. Auctionalfie.com, for example, compares listings for a chosen item on seven of the most popular auction sites, while mysupermarket.co.uk scours the web for all the best supermarket deals.
They used Auction Alfie to find the best deal on an Apple Macbook laptop:
Suppose you wanted an Apple Macbook laptop, which usually costs £816. You could fill in one search form at Auctionalfie and see that it is going for £600 on Cqout, compared with £770 on Amazon Marketplace.
Thank you Sunday Times.

Gumtree claims to be the ‘UK’s No. 1 in classifieds – jobs, property, cars and more’ on its website. This surprised me due to Loot‘s dominance in London, but as Loot only operates in a few cities in the UK, including Manchester, Liverpool and London, I can see why Gumtree may be able to make such a claim.
Both companies offer free listings for most categories, but Loot also places your add in there printed newspaper distributed through major UK cities. However, Loot does have a one-off placement policy so if you want to advertise your stuff until it’s sold you’ll have to pay to upgrade for this service.
We’d like to hear from you about which classified site you prefer.
