    Sixth Anniversary Combo Breaker Debt-free and Proud!
    Hi been reading this thread and felt inspired so started looking at the tills and my walk home and my walk to the shops the last few weeks but nothing,
    zero and a bit less!!! then today ............found a pound yes 1 whole pound, far too excited (I think I ought get out more!) :)

    Good to hear! I too have been scanning the pavements on my way to work and back for about a week now and have not found a single penny....but I won't give up yet!

    Thanks to this thread I have found about 50 clubcard/nectar points though so thats something!
    Starting 2016 debt-free :D
    Emergency Fund: £350/£1000
  • Had a very successful womble yesterday when I nipped to Tesco. Picked up 2 receipts on the way in which had 81 and 33 unclaimed club points - now added to my account.

    I then uploaded my actual receipt to smart check out for entry into their draw and 1p money back (!), I also completed the Tesco survey for an additional 25 points.

    Nothing to report on the wombling front latest but thanks to Bob for mentioning the Checkoutsmart app. Have scanned my Aldi receipt for 25p and also got the shopitize app which looks really good too.

    This is amazing idea - something I would NEVER have thought of
    due to a huge change in our family expenditure (no fault of mine or hubby's) am I joining several challenges on here

    so today when shoping it T I found a receipt in the trolley and it had not been put on the card - so first stop customer services - I got 12 free points
    ok not the greatest but without this thread I would never even have thought about it so a huge thanks
    Bobarella how have you got over £50 from wombling in just 6 weeks - amazing
    Emergency fund £10,000
    Several categories with savings in
    Cars, house maintenance, birthdays
    Etc I have about 10 categories

    Really happy to be debt free after being a compulsive spender

  • I am a newbie and was wondering if anyone was wombling at Morrisons. Over the last two weeks I have had two receipts added to my match and more card.
    Today when I went in, the lady at customers services said I had exceeded my limit. She couldn't give me any more details.
    Any thoughts??

    Wales 87 - no sorry. I guess they all must have their own ways of doing things.

    £1.20 for me today in found money. I am pleased with my wombling total for the year so far of £51.20 if it carries on scaling up that way for the year.
