Hi can someone please explain wombled receipts to me? I have seen a few posts mentioning them but can't find a thread explaining them? I may have missed it though. Many thanks.

Wombled as in Wombles of Wimbledon............ ( probably too young) They are receipts you find in trollies,carparks at check outs etc which you then claim the points/money back offer on them

I get why they are wombled :-) I just didn't understand how they worked? People talk about going online with them and adding them to accounts and things. Is it litteraly just collecting other people's points and things because they have thrown them away? Thank you.

All our new rebels are signed up in post #2 and a big, warm welcome to you all.


Loving the stories of all your shenanigans! Mr HOK3Y and I have found lots of small coins - still holding out for the first £1 of the month! Can we say, 'determined'?!

Hi,Cantfindafreeuserid,
Some people lookout out for discarded ASDA receipts.I think it is something like,if the receipt has more than 8 different items on it,you enter a code that is printed on it,into an ASDA website(address on the receipt),and if it the items would have been cheaper elsewhere, you can print out a voucher for the differrence.
Find a receipt,go the the website,and it is all explained there.
Mind you,if you live anywhere near HOK3Y,you are going to have to get out of bed verrrrrrrrrrry verrrrrrrrrrrry verrrrrrrrrrrrry early in the morning for it to be a worthwhile exercise :rotfl:.
Found 2p piece on road outside PO before collecting kids from school.As we were walking out of school yard,my son found a £1 coin :eek:.It was in a nursery playground,he said a couple of littlies were playing nearby,they saw the coin,pointed and said "Oooohhh,shiny!",then continued playing,hehe.

Hi could I join please? I'm a roadkill rebel and didn't even know it, I didn't look at this thread as I thought you'll were cooking up squirrels or something
But last week I found a £1 coin in morrisons trollies, felt abit bad so told my son 'get it the car quick' :rotfl:
'See a penny pick it up' always say that in my head (or out loud) when I spot a lone one
Also at Sainsburys self service tills have had a couple of vouchers for the difference back left laying waiting for me:D

4p today but at the pub later so there's bound to be some coins knocking about -16p for the month (can't really include the £40 i found)
But i've also made another 48p on receipts so i'll print those vouchers at work

Well I have hardly left the house since last year so no roadkill for me yet! Still I might not be finding it but I'm not spending it either :-)
