What Have You Done Today That is DFW Stylee?

Options
OK it's been a while since I saw this thread around.....come on you guys, we need to keep rolling!

So what have you done?

I was supposed to go into town today and spend my free Pigsback John Lewis voucher however it is raining so I have not gone in. Which is probably a good thing because I think I would have added some more to it :o

I have done my QuidCo searches for a few extra pennies. Also my pigsback competition entries.

I gave myself a home facial using up some products by folding the tubes up really tight to get the last dregs out! :rotfl:

Will be having a lunch made out of freezer "use ups".

Didn't go out last night (I will include this seems there was not a thread yesterday) - stayed in with a DVD and some chip & dip (OH bought them as he had a bonus in his May pay & treated me to a few things - bless) and carrot & hummus. I swear I will turn into a carrot one day.

Cleaned the kitchen with stardrops this morning and it is gleaming :D

That's it for the moment...I hope to be able to add some more things later - and hopefully do another thread tomorrow (feel free to start one without me!)

Good luck everyone....come on, make those savings and tell us all about it!

    Well I don't mind at all!! Can't believe anyone would. If you've done something DFW stylee, then let the world know. All tasks/ideas are welcome for us all to take inspiration from....especially from someone who has actually made the journey......

    Perhaps I could be a "Work Free Wannabe" :p I still love saving money where I can & love getting a bargain!!

    Thanks LookingAhead - enjoy your pampering session - I did the same last night & had my legs waxed for free courtesey of an "Avery Label" promotion - cool!! (and painful....)

    Exactly. I thought Stardrops were those little coloured puffs of corn???? I wondered why the whole of O/S were raving about them :D !!

    I got mine from a Discount Warehouse for 69p. I think some supermarkets are not stocking it because it rivals all the more expensive products!!
