Meet the Stenton family, our Nectar Savvy Family 2012 winners

Dean and Ashlea Stenton and their two sons are from Pontefract. HGV driver Dean is a seasoned online deal hunter and is the go-to man for friends who are looking to pick up a bargain. Living by the motto 'never pay full price', the Stentons pride themselves on being able to find the best price on anything and everything, whether it's a weekly shop or a day out for the family.

Some of the Stentons winning tips included:

• Save on electricity bills by charging mobile phones, iPods and satnavs in the car on the way to work
• Learn the prices of your weekly shopping items and write a list down of all of the everyday, every week items that you buy, and carry it with you to compare prices in stores you visit
• Save water by using toilet bags. These are bags that swell up to occupy up to a litre of water space in your cistern, thus saving water with every flush. Many suppliers give these away for free
• The rail companies put their tickets on sale 12 weeks in advance. To get the very best prices check daily once you are 12 weeks away from your travel date
