Unfortunatly it doesn't include students, not even the really lazy ones
For those of us that don't qualify they are on BOGOF at Morrisons are the moment. 99p for two is not as good as free, but it is certainly the cheapest I have ever seen them.

you see a caterpillar crawling by,
one month later, a butterfly.
you see a birds egg turn into a dove,
you must believe ther's something above.
you plant a seed, it turns into a flower,
you must believe someone has power.
if it isnt you and it isnt me,
there's none so blind as those that wont see"You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need"

Just to change the subject, you can get the bulbs if you receive child tax credit but only if you EARN less than £14,600 and its the same for working tax credit. I got a letter through the post with the details.And yes the lady in the avatar is me

Hi fellow MSE users. I am a relatively new user of this site and this is my first post of any description! Firstly, I was naive to the fact that any freebies were available out there - I enjoy breezing through this section just in case something catches my eye that I could make use of. Secondly,just to advise the unkind users that have posted caustic comments that I already have energy saving bulbs - however I could not believe my eyes as to the torrid and offensive comments being bandied about. It is sad that this part of the forum breeds contempt. It is also sad that I have risen to the bait in feeling so strongly that I had to post a response of some description.
I feel now that after praising this site to many of my friends that I have misled them into believing that this was a nice community whereby ''complete strangers'' so to speak would share knowledge and know how.
All I want to say now is ''Let there be light'' for whoever needs it!!0 -
I just rang this number and for those of you that would like to know more about this offer, it's an answer phone so all you have to do is leave a message with the reference, your name, address, and what sort of benefit. You don't have to speak to a person.0
