Andan, where abouts did you find out about the free dental treatment?
That sounds great, I've just been out a fortune for mine!
Did a google search and came up with this

part way down, after you've read the info you will come across this link where you can fill in the HC1 form

Spendaholick chick, on this thread we are always interested in reading other peoples bargain, either because it makes up jealous or inspires us!!
Great news on the hoover, especially as they are so expensive now aday!
Also great news on juggling the credit cards and getting 4 months knocked off your debt free date, am sure it will motivate you to stick with everything. Think your brave phoning these people up, i tend to just get on with whatever they give me, may have to remember that for future reference!
Pip, have you still not had that baby, i have to say, i am getting put off having kids if i can't get it out of me after 9 months.!! Hope the baby comes soon
Glad you had a good day Candy and enjoyed yourself
Well i have got back home to another email saying i can go pick up the bike tomorrow, so that means i now have a bike and it didn't cost me anything but a little bit of petrol. Am so chuffed and grateful to freecycle, as felt like giving up on it, what a great sharing community.
Well, i didn't get to use my vouchers today as i went to the shops and there was nothing i wanted, no kitchen stuff in there, so wasn't impressed and didn't fancy spending it on anything else. So will keep for another day, plus it means a NSD for me as i didn't have to pay any extra to ensure i got full benefits of the vouchers, as wasn't sure if they would give change, so may have had to spend more.
Only thing i bought today was a Mcdonalds but that doesn't count as it was a mystery shop.
Also filling in info for Boots trials thing. I have been accepted and been sent my log in details today, so am currently filling in my profile at the mo, with the view to being able to start trials soon. Told you today was a positive day.
Also my supervision went well for the voluntary work and the supervisor is pleased at the progress i am making.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
