    Yeah but you see I hail from a low income family and most of thats what I do anyway so nothing new here really.
    I think discovery showing extreme couponing might have sparked an interest in the idea.Mind you if i hadn't seen that show wouldnt have found all you loverly people :)


    I am not sure extreme couponing sparked it off, I think it was already being discussed anyway, just not as big as a scale as it now, since we went into the recession again, people have been putting up blogs about frugal living, recycling, etc.

    so this was just the next step. soon it will all be about upcycling.

    I've pm'd you:beer: But you would be better going through Topcashback and getting £10.30 cashback. http://www.topcashback.co.uk/jackpotjoy/
    It may work if I recommend you and then you go through TCB rather than any link you get from them.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)
