    hi IA, so you have £7 left till wed? if so saturday is almost over so you only have 3 days to go:j . what do you desperately need? if you list your cupboard/freezer/fridge contents on the old style board they'll have you eating like kings:D

    do you have a blockbuster near you - they are advertising that they give the best price for trade ins. do you have any games or dvd's you could trade in if you were desperate. you need to be an a member but you can join anytime. they give you cash or store credit.

  • Hi IA

    Do you get Healthy Start Vouchers? (they are replacing the milk tokens) I get tax credits and i get £4.80 a week to spend on formula for my DD, you can use them to get money off fruit and veg or cows milk.

    Hi IA

    How do I go about claiming those??

    Edit: Just found the website.. and we don't qualify because we get working tax credits... :confused:
