Wow Foxy! Balley good start girl!!!
I'm also out of the trap with train ticket savings for two skid journeys in January bought in advance with a friends and family discount card totalling £75.70. So glad I got this card when it was a Tesco Clubcard deal. I didn't count these savings last year, but feel like I can/should as the skids make this journey to us twice a month at least.
Happy New Year to all my fellow wombles xxx0 -
Hello
I'd like to join again this year, last years total was up to £141.25 before i stopped/forgot to track the amount, but still continued YS hunting - i can't walk past reduced food if i know it is going to be something i will eat/use. A few months ago there was an entire pallet load of T cherry tomatoes at 5p a pack - i picked up 19 packs to freeze in place of the tinned alternative!
This year i am going to use the price of the item i would normally buy against the reduction price, as most of the time i wouldn't have bought the original, non YS item in the first place!
Unfortunately, our second freezer died this year and we lost the entire contents :mad: (in a rental property with no replacement clause), so i have to be a bit more restrained on picking up bargains, and eating through the stores this year!No buying unnecessary toiletries 2017 UU 6

I've also added a reminder to Google Calendar at the start of each month as I often forgot which month I had or hadn't done the survey in, should be easier this way! Now I just need to remember to hang on to a receipt towards the end of each month XD
Total: £0.25
