Consumer journalist and TV presenter Alice Beer says people still need to be careful amid the ongoing fuel crisis by maintaining their good spending habits over the summer and being cautious again next winter.
The cost of living crisis has forced households across Northern Ireland to rethink how they spend their money and look at ways to save a few pounds on their bills as prices continue to rise.
Alice, best known for having appeared on BBC's Watchdog and more recently as the consumer editor on ITV's This Morning, was speaking as Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced his “Budget for growth” today.
