    I went to Asda today and gained a free pen from the national no smoking display stand.

    Hi all,

    How is everyone?
    My frugal find , well yesterday, was a new bath sheet, not the best looking but is huge for £2. Looked at the bedding and found a brand new single quilt cover for £1 and a pillow case for 10p both new and still in packaging for DS1's bedroom. So there's him sorted, he's coming up 10 and decided he's too old for his current ones. so well chuffed :D.Also got two new pillow cases for my room both for 10p each!
  • My completely beautiful frugal finds today were two framed completed cross stitch pictures featuring Peter Rabbit £4 :j:j
    and two vintage Oxford style white pillow cases made from Pyramid Egyptian cotton - and in superb condition for £7.99 :D

    The pillow cases have been laundered and are on the pillows as I type, and the pictures are already on the wall in a prominent place. YAAAAY

    On the giving side of things, gave away some dog bits to a charity.

  • Today I took a large bag of clothes to our local Childrens Hospice charity shop with some really nice pieces in it and Whilst I was thier I picked up a gorgeous pair of almost brand new Wallis Trousers for £2.
  • Been reading this thread over the last few days so whilst in town today I wandered round some of the charity shops to see what treasures I could unearth. Came away with a Cranium Cadoo game and Brain Strain game for £2 each. Good to keep the little man entertained and also handy to have for rainy lunchtimes when I start teacher training in Sept. Very chuffed for my first rummage!
