    Well done Sylphraven :T on your dooyoo reviews

    I am much happier today as one phone call has saved £70 on our breakdown cover - it certainly is worth checking out the guide on the main site :D:D

    Hi All,
    Since the thrifty threads are so flippin' fab and everyone is so excited with talk of sheets, folders and giftys, I thought "why not have somewhere for people to exchange documents" and really good ideas that you want as a reference point (rather than trawling through pages of festive natter!- which is brilliant by the way!! :D:T)

    So, I unveil the Thrifty Gifty Blog! http://thriftygifty.blogspot.com/ - a great reference point with links to the important posts on here (see Quick Links on the side bar), links to other ideas, and documents to download.

    Anyone can be an "author" and write posts on there, you just need to have a blogger account, and e-mail the blog at [EMAIL="thriftygifty@hotmail.co.uk"]thriftygifty@hotmail.co.uk[/EMAIL] for me to add you. It is not my blog, it is our blog :D

    However, to get us started, I have amended my spreadsheet, and made it hopefully user-friendly and added it on there for you to download. I HAVE tested it and it downloads fine for me (see instructions on blog) BUT I don't know if that is because I have a scribd account. Sooooo if someone could "beta" test it for me and see if it downloads OK I would be much obliged.

    I hope you like this idea and would like to hear of anything else that you think would be useful to have on there (I am going to add a list of linked review sites and cashback sites for people to get to quickly too).

    And I found a fab idea for gifts this morning and put a link on there too. It is for home made candles in jars ! They are gorgeous!!!

    Ok guys, well hope you like it :D:A


    ETA - I was going to suggest we could design our own download sheets, sheets similar to those at organisedchristmas but a UK version, but I have noted a lot of people already download them from organised, so maybe not such a good idea.

    I claimed another £10 yesterday morning, this time from Littlewoods bingo (free scratchys). Be nice when all this money I'm claiming goes in the bank. A lot of the daily click sites seem to pay out after 30 days now instead of in a few days.
