Yes, I've got the bug as well. I'm sure the postman must be groaning under the extra load of freebies!
The trouble is I don't have enough time to check everything out every day - maybe I should give up working for a living!!!! ::)0 -
i'm bit sadder than that, been known to make a flask so i can sit and read all posts in one sitting. :-[
oh dear - flask of tea and your michael winner poster - i know a good therapist if you need one ;D
nice to know theres others like me out there - possibly we're the only normal ones - maybe its that the non moneysaving addicts are the weird ones?

I was looking at mobile phones yesterday in the Trafford Centre, and found myself suggesting to a couple beside me that they might like to look at a couple of mobile phone websites - and promptly gave them the urls...I blame MSE, as I would never have known about them otherwiseThe IVF worked;DS born 2006.0

My name is Tania and I'm an MSE addict. (clap, clap)
I've tried allsorts to stop it but my hands start itching, my body starts twitching and I feel a strong urge to come back for more. I just can't help myself. Its affecting my work or should I say work affects my ability to do stuff as much as I'd like. It affects my home life as my bum is permantently fixed on my Leather Viking Chair and kids get their T at breakfast time. I need my fix every day and I'm worried coz I'm off on hols and dunno what I'm gonna do.
I don't make a flask of tea, I just bring in a bottle of wine which keeps me going for a few hours.
I know I need therapy but I can't find it on the Freebies board.
My eyes are sore from sitting up half of night looking for bargains, my family can't cope with the "stuff" keep coming thru. the door. My work think I'm Arthur Daley, keep bringing in unwanted freebies (Redoute phones etc).
I'm luuuvvvving it large .
If you can help. let me know. ;D0 -
Cheers! I have a glass of wine by my side too! :-*0
