    I forgot to tell you....when I took my trolley back after putting my shopping in the car yesterday, there was one trolley in the trolley park with a receipt in it. Never one to waste an opportunity, I picked it up and ran it though the a$da receipt thing this morning. My own shopping didn't get a voucher, but the wombled one gave me a voucher for £5.32 :eek:Result!

    :rotfl::rotfl:Thank you soooo much for the laugh! Really needed it.:T

    Hi

    Could I join in this month please with a budget of £500. This is for 4 adults for food, toiletries, medicines and household items. I've saved receipts for the last two months which have totalled about £550 each time, horrendous, I know :eek: , so time now to do something about it.

    Thanks, J
