    I'm often a bit slow when it comes to offers etc and am wondering about this Sun Perks thing ! I've had several emails from them offering Primark vouchers and now I've had one offering a £10 Tesco voucher if I sign up for a months trial at £1 - I know lots of you have signed up and would appreciate a bit of guidance.

    Am I right in thinking I have to sign up with a cc or dc and get the first month (and hopefully the coupon and other benefits) for just £1 ? Towards the end of the month I then cancel before they take out the following months £10 and, so long as I cancel after the first 7 days but before the end of the month it should be OK. Is it easy to cancel it? Any advice would be great.

    Yep, sign up, get the freebies then remember to cancel. I did it no problem online and got £10 morrisons voucher, £5 morrisons voucher and 3 calvin Klein lipglosses. cancelled 10 days before money taken out (think it's the 31st of the month)

    I've just been on the budgetting forums and got side tracked by one thread (a woman struggling and cutting back on everything). An hour has just disappeared :o She had loads of good things though to reduce outgoings.. Hope she doesn't mind me nicking it :D

    Just to recap the changes we've made:
    Running the washing machine on quick wash for every wash - they come out just as clean
    Stopping school dinners once a week and making packed lunches all the time
    Wasting absolutely NOTHING. Left over pastry bits are filled with sultanas, cinnamon and honey, rolled like a swiss roll and baked as a sweet treat for packed lunches and left over stew/curries are put into pasty and turned into pies.
    Main bulk shopping at Aldi and buying what I can't get from there from Asda
    Shopping early in the morning to take advantage of cut price offers before they all go
    Planning meals around the reduced price meat Asda has
    Freezing what veg we can and taking all fresh veg out of packaging so that it lasts longer
    Bulking up things like minced beef with veg and beans so that it can make 2 meals
    Making curries in bulk and freezing so I have one day every fortnight I don't have to cook - I just shove them in the oven
    Ditching the car and walking more
    Using free AVG anti-virus instead of paying for it
    Turning radiators off in rooms we're not using and turning thermostat down
    Doing much more baking and coming up with creative packed lunch ideas so that I'm not spending money on sandwich fillings
    Changing our daily newspaper to the 20p i news
    Making my own cleaning products
    Questioning everything we spend and asking if we can buy it cheaper elsewhere or if we really do need it
    All of these are little changes but all those little changes add up to a big saving.

    And another, stop buying stuff you don't need, want or will use!
    filling cupboards, boxes, garages etc with things that are not gonna get used in not money saving no matter how cheap it may have been!!:cool:

    check your Tesco home panels if you have a cat.
    a short survey to complete.
    my quickest survey ever, do you have a cat? - no
    thanks for completing survey. :rotfl:

    I always do the surveys, even if not relevant to me. that's why I keep getting clothes for dw I believe.
    nothing for me though. :( ( even the dogs get to eat free )at times

    Think these are a particularly good buy for £2 from the Ts Clearance Link.

    Doesn't show what price they have been reduced from but there is a similar set with about 100 blocks for £7.99 think just different design on some of the coloured bricks. ;)

    Yes, sign up

    I am on my third sign up now so for £3, I have had three £10 supermarket coupons, a £5 Morrisons, 3 Calvin Klein lipglosses, free cinema ticket too.

    I signed up, cancelled, then a week later got an email asking me to rejoin, rejoined, got coupon, cancelled, got email again and just signed up again IYKWIM

    Seems too good to be true, really
    Don't get it perfect - Get it going

    Hold on just looking for correct link

    I agree, DS1 had these as a baby and they still get played with now. I looked at them but decided there was no one I could give them to.
