We have tried a system with mobile phones where each person receives a print every month of the expenditure (calls over certain minutes, over £1, etc) so they can see these costs for themselves. Anyone spending excessively has a limit implemented. Also, if someone goes abroad they inform the office and the international option is applied for that month only then removed on return. This has halved the mobile bill.  

We keep a mobile in the office for dialling the mobiles to reduce costs too, as this is cheaper than a landline/ mobile call.

We also buy office supplies in bulk from stationary supplies, but have found that Tesco and Costco often sell the same items cheaper!

I like the courier performance monitor - that is something definately have a look at.

Flights and car hire are booked online when possible, but when we use our agent the non-flexible fares are often a nightmare to explain if they are cancelled. Any suggestions?
