:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: 'Womble clubcard points'. I log on in teh back room of the shop and customers thought I was going mad, hearing my mad cackling from the storeroom.

When you live near a Sainsbury's Local that reduces really decent stuff to 10p at the end of the day, and it becomes a regular competition between you and another Mad Maverick MoneySaving Maniac who lives in the same neighbourhood...

When you drive at 56ish mph on the motorway/dual carriageway because it uses less petrol so the 40p a mile you get on expenses is more profitable (and its works time you are wasting)

NB this needs to be done with a bit of common sense for safety reasons but lorries often do a similar speed due to their limiters so the slow lane is often running at that speed anyway!

Your kids ask if you will swap 2 pound coins for the 2 pound coin they have.

You don't replace the light in the fridge because its saving money whenever you open the door.:o

You find you have developed a compulsive disorder to collect firewood from any source, you chop up the palllets at work, you cant go for a walk in the country without loading the boot with branches, sticks, and even twigs (thatll be good for kindling).

You find yourself on MSE so much you start replying to posts that dont involve actually saving money, just taking the mick out of yourself. Argh

you havent replaced the bathroom light that went 18 months ago,you bath the kids early in the summer so its not a problem and light candles at bathtimes during winter:)......and are still not planning on replacing it!
