New research has found a fifth of Brits are “too lazy” to shop around for the best deals
Are you ‘changeaphobic’ – or happy to roll with the punches and go where life takes you?
This quiz will find out if you’re stuck in a rut or willing to make the change where needed.
It was created after a study of 2,000 adults found a fifth admit they are ‘too lazy’ to shop around for the best deals – which could be costing them a small fortune.
While 37 per cent will complain about the price of services like utilities, but then do nothing about it.
The top excuses for not making a change include ‘it’s boring’, ‘it’s confusing’ and ‘I don’t believe the effort is worth the reward’.
Whereas adults who do spend time shopping around believe they save a whopping £208 each, per year, as a result of their thriftiness.
And when it comes to phone contracts, over one in five (22 per cent) don’t think they’ll get a better deal.
A spokesperson for mobile network provider, SMARTY, which commissioned the study, said: “Switching isn’t always the best move – but it usually is.
“We know that finding the best deals can save people money.
“In this research, 41 per cent of Brits are telling us they feel stuck in a rut in their day to day lives – maybe it’s time to embrace change and switch things up.”
