At Savoo
Ed Fleming is the Managing Director here at Savoo. He runs the company from the office in London and internationally. He also works closely with our colleagues in the USA at Savings.com on strategy, product development, HR and ensuring Savoo is getting the best deals and voucher codes possible for you, the savvy shopper. Before becoming the boss Ed worked on creating the money-saving content on Savoo and prior to that Ed worked in PR and journalism.
Outside of work Ed plays golf, watches cricket (he says he can't play anymore as he's too old - we think that's an excuse!). He also loves cooking and drinking the best wine he can afford.
Ed's money saving secrets
Ed loves a good deal and will always do his best to get the best price. Here's his top tips on saving money on your online shopping;
"Only buy things you really need as even a great saving on something you don't need isn't really a saving. My other top tip is bulk buying. If you find a great deal on items you need everyday, buy as much as you can afford at a reduced price."
Fun fact about Ed
"I love Larry David and religiously watch Curb Your Enthusiasm. So when I'm visiting colleagues in Los Angeles I always try and see if I can go to Larry's office to spot him, but have never succeeded. I know, that is a bit stalkery! But recently I spotted him when I was having dinner and pretended I'd left something at my table so I could go back and take a photo of him. Pretty, pretty, pretty good, eh?!"
Ed's favourite categories
"I really love going to live sports events - especially the cricket - so I spend a lot of my time buying tickets online. See Tickets and Ticketmaster sometimes have discount codes. However, they tend to be rare. Sometimes I need to sell my tickets due to last-minute work commitments. So, rather than losing the money, I resell my tickets for face value on Viagogo."
"My second big passion is wine. My big tip is to check out which supermarket currently has the 25% off 6 bottles offer. There's usually some fantastic affordable wines in the deal so it's a great way to stock up your wine rack, for less. This popular supermarket wine offer rotates around the big supermarkets - Tesco, Sainsbury, ASDA, Morrisons, M&S and Waitrose - so shop around to see which one has the deal before you buy."
