FAQ
Frequently asked questions...
Here are some of the questions we get asked most often.. Tap a question to see the answer.
Is it actually free?
Completely. Every issue lands in your inbox at no cost. We make money through advertising, affiliate links and hosting our own events. For readers who want to support us further, there’s also the Cheapskate Club – an optional paid membership with extra perks. We’ll never make money by charging people to receive our core newsletter.
How often will I hear from you?
We aim to get Cheapskate in your inbox by 7:30am every Monday, so you can start planning your week ASAP.
What will I actually get?
A focused read worth your time — the signal, not the scroll. You can preview an issue before you commit.
Can I unsubscribe anytime?
Of course. One click in any email and you are out.
Will you share or sell my email?
Other than sending you our weekly email, we don’t do anything with your data. Occasionally, some competitions may require limited data sharing to enter, but these are always clearly signposted so you can decide whether to take part. You can read more in our privacy policy if you’d like.
How do you pick the events?
Every event recommended by Cheapskate is handpicked because it genuinely looks interesting and worth your time. Occasionally, we also work with organisations on paid features to help fund the newsletter, but we only ever promote things we’d happily recommend to our readers.
