No it is not a scam or pyramid resale site but a very serious site made by CRIOC (Center for Research and Information of Consumer Organizations) http://www.crioc.be/FR/

This site gives some advice on how to consume better and thus save money. Another advice site will tell me yes but no because here there is a personalized test allows you to diagnose your potential gain.

The test: http://www.gagnez1000euros.be/diagnostic.php

But as in all tests some questions do not exactly match your conditions, well you have to justify myself as a webmaster of econology:

1) nowhere has it been indicated that we are heating with solar energy so the heating and shower points are a bit piped ...
2) laundry = soapnuts
3) my mobile phone dates from 2003 and I plan to use it for a few more years

By cons the thing on the sales which is considered positive is shady ... it is still force consumption. Less balance = less consumption = limited environmental impact.

Still, it's nice with the 5454.00 € that can be saved per year in 10 years I will be able to buy myself a beautiful ... 4x4 : Mrgreen: : Mrgreen: : Mrgreen:

Maieuh ... : Mrgreen: = irony !!

It does not prevent the money saved must be spent at one time or another ... then if it is overconsumption and therefore annihilate the efforts made where is the final interest? I believe there is a subject about it ...
