    Ha ha ... Careful ... You'll give Coupon' a coronary ...

    PS ... I have a pile of Delicious mag's by my front door .... I give one to everybody who pops round ...


    Your so generous. I gave the Mother in Law one yesterday (if you'll pardon the expression). Suitably butchered as I'm sure your mags were. Takes the strain off the old recycle bag.

    I took my 10 copies into work today as we have a small table that we use for selling books and videos with the money going to charity. I thought we could ask 50p or £1 for them but instead my centre manager thinks they are worth £1.50 as they are so topical. (Note - I have completely removed the page with the 60p coupon as I thought a missing page may not be noticed rather than a page that has been cut.)

    Is that really worth it??:eek: Surely by the time you've paid for petrol, plus wear and tear on your car, never mind all the pollution emited, you've spent well over £2.60???

    Don't shout at me; only my personal thought lol. My mum says I have a calculator for a brain when it comes to saving money!

    Good point ... I agree Discodee ... You do need to take everything into account and not be blinkered ... just as Coupon-mad's fine point about the printer ink used to print a 20p coupon ... It's not rude to point this out ... it's wise to look at the whole picture

    I've got loads of these 60p vouchers and an Asda across the road from work. Only problem is that I didn't think Asda would accept them.

    I'd imagine Carray meant she used quite a few of these, so it would be worth it. :D
