Cheapskate London - Monday 15 December 2025

Happy Monday Cheapskater,

It’s the final Cheapskate email of the year – and what a year it’s been. In the past 12 months we’ve sent out 52 emails, written more than 70,000 words, shared roughly 1,000 fantastic free events, and given away brilliant prizes to over 100 of you wonderful people.

We’ve also grown by a whopping 132%(!) and around 65,000 of you now receive Cheapskate in your inbox each week. This means we could fill Tottenham Hotspur Stadium or three O2 Arenas with our readers 🤯.

We wanted to also say a huge thank you to the 120 amazing readers who support us by being members of the Cheapskate Club. Thanks to you, we were able to hire our first employee this year – the wonderful Clementine. This has been a game-changer for us. Georgia and I still work full-time jobs, so having Clementine on board has helped us keep the newsletter going and growing. We can’t thank you enough for your support!

And to all of you, thank you for reading, sharing, sending tips and spreading the word about our newsletter. We couldn’t do any of this without you. We hope you enjoy the final Cheapskate London edition of 2025 – and we’ll be back in your inbox on Monday January 5th!

Love,
Kate and Georgia x

PS: Congrats to last week’s competition winners, Jess S and Taylor H, who each won tickets to the VR experience Machu Picchu: Journey to the Lost City. Scroll down for this week’s free-to-enter prize draw, as well as £20 off a meal at a great London restaurant, thanks to EatClub.

PPS: If you’re looking for free family-friendly events over the Christmas holiday, make sure you’re subscribed to our spin-off newsletter, Cheapskate Kids. Our festive edition lands this Wednesday!
