Finance Expert Lawrence Gold invites you to give him a run for his money…

With the credit crunch pushing up the costs of living a new report, due out next week, claims that Britons could be facing the most expensive month of the year.

Consider just some of the report's findings:

1. One in five homeowners say their fixed rate deal comes to an end this month, hiking their largest monthly outgoing
2. Gas, water and electricity bills will be their highest ever as rises announced earlier this year filter through in May
3. Your annual TV Licence fee will also be coming through the door this month.
4. Brits are overhauling their wardrobe for summer
5. May has two bank holiday weekends in which to amuse ourselves..

So how on earth are we going to make ends meet?
