What frugal find came your way today?

I found a pound coin on the pavement and bought a sausage roll for my lunch

They were clearing out cupboards in Dh work and were going to chuck loads of stuff out. He came home with 2 bags of freezer bags ( the zip closed kind), and a whole roll each of good quality tin foil and proper cling film. I usually buy the cheapest I can find, so it's nice to have some nicer stuff for a wee treat!
Isn't it amazing what little things can make us happy?????

£5 Debenham voucher courtesy of MSE, lovely T-shirt in the post (prezzie for DH for Xmas) for a few quid courtesy of an online mob deal, found a £5 off voucher for Boots no. & which is still valid and I am going to use it today to buy DD's a Xmas prezzie too.

Ah and instead of buying lunch out as I was about to do, I was inspired by this thread and will have a sandwich at home before going out, instead! Thank you all!

I am trying to lose weight (lost some so far) so reluctant to spend too much on clothes until I "settle". Did the round of CSs last weekend and found a lovely camel coloured coat, 80% wool, for £5.50 - brand new!!
Also bought a couple of travel sized bath bits for 30p each, and 4 books (latest, as new) for 50p each.

Well my free nivea make up removers came through the post day (they are about £3-£4 in the shops), my nan gave me £10 to say thankyou for sorting out her prescriptions and docs appointments for this and next week. My mum bought me a box of wine, cause me sorting my nan out ment she didn't have too. So all in all a very good day

Bag of magazines from mum, she must spend a blooming fortune on the things!!:eek:
Best thing is she leaves all the coupons in them so hopefully there will be some i can put to good use:)

A white mohair rectangular shawl and two tops,one of them woollen,in a charity shop.
Some split peas and lentils in an Indian shop,whose prices are even lower than the usual shop that I frequent.
