How about popping into Lush with the whole family and all scraping fingernails over your favourite soap, on returning home pick out of nails into a jar, do this daily and eventually you will have collected enough scrapings to melt into a bar!!!

:rotfl:
THANK YOU!

I'm having a pretty bad tearful evening, this gave me a good laugh ... of course this is no laughing matter and a very useful tip!

Stay in bed - keeps you warm and you eat less

In London - do not pay for the bus, wait for the free bus (the bendy bus) - 29, 12, 453, etc. Ken Livingston has these FREE buses running from central london to the poorer suburbs (what a guy)!!!!

If you do encounter a ticket inspector - there are a number of tactics -
1) Pretend to be a tourist from USA who was unaware of the rules and regulations.
2) Pretend to be a tourist who does not speak english.
3) Do a runner.
4) Give the name and address of someone you dont like.
5) Get arrested... At least you have access to a free toilet, and if you are very lucky - maybe a hot meal. And, perhaps the police station might be in walking distance of your house.....

:eek: Free accommodation... Go to a restaurant eat a huge meal run up a huge tab and dont pay... get arrested and there you go a wonderful free meal and then some free accommodation, and if youre very lucky you get a wonderful cell mate to keep you company and have a wonderful conversation with.

The credit crunch did spring to mind when I read this, hilarious though, I must admit,I was put off my breakfast by the stories of folks using their workplace as a poop station and leaving the place bowfing though!!! Do these people not care what their workmates think of them???:eek:

this has made me laugh, everyone p00ps, everyone makes a smell, but yes i do agree saving it up to go at work is a bit gross!
someone my husband works with was doing that, turning into work on time then spending the first half hour of his day in the loo. untill the boss said to him, 'you either come into work half an hour early, or take a **** at home'!! :rotfl:

this whole post is brilliant, some great money saving tips here :T :rotfl:

instead of paying to see the new film releases, hand about outside just as the film is about to finish and ask people as they come out what happened. that way, you'll know the plot and won't have to see it.
