    Razor e90 scooter electric for £65 online at boots.com. Toys r us want £129 for them.
  • I had made it my NY resolution 2013 to earn as many Amazon vouchers as poss via various sites towards Christmas. Although hasn't covered everything, I have spent a huge amount on Amazon for free, and has dramatically reduced my spend. Have had "hundreds" of pounds of gifts for free. (TCB, SB, DY, IPSOS, My Survey). Also had quite a lot of Paypal money stashed from ebay sales earlier in year.

    I've had a few in the last few years- the 4p shirt and tie sets from Tesco was a particular favourite :D

    Glitchy body shop gift sets

    An £80 shirt from Charles Tyrwhitt for £8.95 (I think) inc. delivery, and they just sent me a £10 voucher for while I shall use against another reduced shirt, leaving me £2.95 plus delivery, original price was £80 :)

    Various wines and champagnes from Tesco when they had 25% off which combined with other offers

    Christmas dinner shall be entirely paid for by the supermarkets with vouchers that I've got free or by making the most of their price comparisons

    I can't post pics cos it's all either wrapped up, not eaten yet or given out in the past

    I have just got back from Ikea Milton Keynes where I was lucky enough to pick up one of the free (to first 100 family club members) live Christmas Trees. It's around 6ft and absolutely lovely.
    To top it off Ikea are today giving £20 vouchers to spend in January when you spend £25 on Christmas Tree and although mine was free I still got the £20 voucher. Basically Ikea paid me £20 to take it away!

    So very happy :T :j

    Do you have a photo Pasipha?
    Could you do with a Money Makeover?
