Made an uncharacteristic trip to Oxford St today (normally buggy and bored baby puts me off) and managed to get loads of perfume samples, some biotherm body and face creams, a Chanel inimitable mascara, a copy of The Times body & soul supplement with some free Olay definity face cream. Best haul I've had for ages! When I got home I also had a free Vertbaudet skirt and £10 Boots voucher.

This morning postie brought me £10 Boots vouchers (they were soo quick :j), and a 50p Daz coupon.
Went to the city centre and got loads of samples, including a 20ml Biotherm face cream for hubby (generous sample methinks
), and an Estee Lauder mascara sample, with the voucher from Red magazine. Also got a Clinique gift set from Debenhams (it's their 'Bonus Time' promotion; bought 2 lipsticks, and used gift vouchers to pay
), and some good bargains from Boots (got a £5 No7 voucher).

Last night I won the school raffle and bagged a nice brand new dvd player which will be great as an extra christmas present for DD1 - (cost of ticket was £1.00).
Took the children to a new Tescos today (gosh I know how to show them a good day out !!) bagged 6 tins of Quality street for under a tenner by having discounts and vouchers. Also bagged some coffee vouchers on the way out. Oh and also used the last of my health and beauty vouchers.
Had a free vertbaudet t-shirt today and an ebay purchase, together with a Hipp chart and money off voucher.
At lunch-time I took the children to the local church Christmas Fayre and they met Father Christmas. This is the one I always go to as the Father Christmas is a dear old gentlemen who chats away to the kiddies and never rushes them along. For 50p each they had a nice present, a pencil and some special Father Christmas paper to write him their Christmas wish list. I bagged some bargains at the Fayre and the children were given free books to take home too.
At tea-time I went to the NCT new/nearly new sale and bought guide uniform, school uniform, dance costumes and some lovely trendy clothes for the children. Not free I know but I did fill a bin bag for £30 which was a top bargain as most of the clothes still had shop tags attached.
