How to save money on your takeaway
TAKEAWAYS taste great but they can hit you hard on your wallet. Here are some tips on how to save on your delivery:
Cashback websites- TopCashback and Quidco will pay you to order your takeaway through them. They're paid by retailers for every click that comes to their website from the cashback site, which eventually trickles down to you. So you'll get cashback on orders placed through them.
Discount codes - Check sites like VoucherCodes for any discount codes you can use to get money off your order.
Buy it from the shops - Okay, it might not taste exactly the same but you'll save the most money by picking up your favourite dish from your local supermarket.
Student discounts - If you're in full-time education or a member of the National Students Union then you may be able to get a discount of up to 15 per cent off the bill. It's always worth asking before you place your order.

More info The cause of a massive fire at a circus during a live performance has been revealed as a faulty washing machine. Big Kid Circus evacuated their audience during one of their Scottish shows on Thursday, July 3, after a lorry trailer burst into flames at the attraction at around 7pm, reports The Daily Record. Emergency services raced to Warout Playing Fields in Glenrothes, Fife, with firefighters battling the blaze which started away from the big top tent. Nobody was injured and everybody was evacuated safely.

Crowds of people could be seen watching the fire take hold. Lisa McCann, service manager at Fife Council, said the local authority had been liaising with event organisers following the horror incident.

Stunning Scottish beach that's like a ‘tropical untouched paradise' named among best in the world
Read on to check out the full list of stunning shorelines SANDS AMAZING! Stunning Scottish beach that's like a 'tropical untouched paradise' named among best in the world Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SCOTTISH beach has been crowned as one of the best in the world, new research reveals. West Beach, in the Outer Hebrides, makes the top 25, alongside breathtaking locations including Australia's The Pass and Ao Maya in Thailand. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 West Beach in the Outer Hebrides has been named among the world's best Credit: Alamy 7 The Western Isles are famous for their beautiful Atlantic beaches Credit: Getty 7 The seaside spot boasts gorgeous white sand and blue waters Credit: Getty Situated off the northwest coast of Scotland, the seaside spot sits on the longest archipelago in the British Isles. Award-winning travel publisher Lonely Planet, which compiled the league table, hailed West Beach as an "untouched paradise". The stunning shoreline stretches for three miles and is a hit with locals and tourists alike. One visitor gushed: "It feels like a tropical paradise and shows that there are gorgeous getaways right on your doorstep. "The sand is white and the waters are blue, it's the perfect spot to catch a tan on a sunny day." And to cool off from the rays, brave swimmers can take a dip in the chilly waters, which rarely get above 13C. For visitors who don't like sand between their toes, the seaside spot boasts grassy dunes perfect for bird-watchers or hikers who are keen to take in the jaw-dropping views. The beach is stunning all year round, however, it's been suggested that spring is the best time to visit due to the "burst of colour" from the abundance of wildflowers. The beauty spot has good transport links to the mainland with a regular ferry service running from Oban. There are also flights from Edinburgh, Inverness, Glasgow and Southampton to Stornoway Airport in Lewis.
