can someone please tell me how to nab free cinema tickets? I'm completely out of the loop!

I just signed up to the See Film First website and every now and again they send you an email with an offer of tickets for previews of films. They're usually at early evening showings or in the morning on the weekend so you can't pick but it is free and usually you can get 2 tickets so you don't have to go on your own.

You have to be quick though - the cinemas are predefined and the tickets go like hot cakes - I've been a few times and its a free trip out ! They are not always showing near you either so its pot luck what you get sent (I think!)

Worth a look!

hi everyone,
this weekend i will:
update banking - done and September debt payments have started to leave my account
do free scratch cards
caught up with diaries
laundry HC - one load done on economy 7, now 2 loads on line, another in the machine, and another to go when that's done.
movie night tonight with OH, got to make Sky pay for itself!
went shopping yesterday, still trying to figure out how we spent so much, so will be checking out the receipt next, though i did get some chrissy pressies with it.

Happy Saturday everyone... I love weekends!!!


Things I have done so far: -

• made HM bread
• 2 loads of washing
• been to the cinema with DS for early film - only £1 each... also took juice etc with us so was a cheap outing
• renewed car insurance through employee benefits web site so got a good deal plus £42.50 cash back
• currently on hold to cancel existing insurance - over 11 minutes so far :mad:
• Tidied living room and bedrooms
• Checked surveys - none

Things I will do: -

• hopefully decorate the kitchen

• Cancel existing car insurance
• make HM rolls tomorrow for lunches during week
• make banana bread for lunches during week

Hi all, can't believe the sunshine is here at last.:j We enjoyed it yesterday and went to Weymouth Sea Life Centre using our Merlin passes and had tea at Pizza Express and paid in Tesco Clubcard tokens.

Today I:
1) SC, checked banking etc
2) Hokey cokey drying outside
3) Returned things on time to library
4) Rented a DVD for free using a voucher from bargain chocolate packets.
5) Bought a Monsoon work top from the charity shop.
6) Booked a hotel room to visit my Nana in Nottingham at Christmas time - family room, 2 nights for £12.50 per room per night! Remembered Quidco too.
7) Met friends for a drink in the sunshine and stuck to two halves.
8) Entered coke zone points
9) 2 online surveys
10) Received £20 survey vouchers in post.

DNMS - check out the thread on the Freebies board for cinema tickets - it is a sticky so you can't miss it.

Oh is out tonight so B and I are going to have a girly night and eat chocolate and watch Dear John. Not the sitcom from the 80s.

See you tomorrow, L x

Er...what's lettuce soup?!

ok I saw Dawn had it on her list a few weeks ago & I have a lettuce that needs using up. She gave me this recipe:

"roughly chop 2 potatoes and 1 onion, soften in a little butter, add a chopped lettuce or the outside leaves of several lettuces, and chicken stock just to cover (I make chicken stock from chicken carcasses in the slow cooker, simply cover with water and leave on low for about 12 hours, then cool,pick out bones and bits and freeze). If you don't have that you could use just water I guess, or Marigold bouillon powder if you have that - I don't like stock cubes much, but if you do, then use one of those. Cook till all veg are soft, then cool a bit and whizz in blender till smooth. Season and serve. Nice with a spoonful of cream swirled in and some croutons if you are feeling posh."

haven't made it yet, cbb now so will be tomorrow
