What an inspiring thread! I have early experience of wombling (collecting littered Wispa wrappers on my way home from school to save for a free mug in the 1980s). My stepdad lives by a McDonalds and has been collecting beans for a while now. In the past Ive also avoided trolleys with receipts left in them - never again. I'm already in profit with Shopitize from joining this morning - got free milk for the weekend and a quid back from a shop I did on Monday.

Thanks Suz thats kind of you,

Its amazing what you can get for free when you try isnt it:T

No wombling joys for me for a while now. Checked Shopitize the other day and saw £3 off £30 shop in Mr T - but I went the day before and it didn't work!!!

Still no roadkill for me this year. I nearly got a McD bean the other day, but the cup had been so soaked by the rain, the sticker was useless.

Oh well, onwards and upwards eh:o

I have experienced that this week with a £4 off a £20 spend. Im not too happy about that....

Hi All
A fantastic day for wombling. We went out for a walk late in the day to our favourite wombling spot, a corner of a car park where all the reciepts end up. Was rewarded with a 19p brand match, a 94 pointer, & two 10 pointers. Took them into Sains to add on which puts my nectar points to £3.36 so they are adding up again.
Also found £6 off a £60 shop and annoyingly an expired voucher for 200 points for seemingly nothing but scanning the voucher. As it was expired by a month I thought no point in asking for it to be credited anyway.
But pleased with that anyway.

Sazzie - Sorry what do you mean by managing the lists?

Well when I go to the supermarket to buy things on the shoptize lists there is always a massive variation in what type/size/variety to buy, and I don't want to get the wrong item, or am I just being dim:o

Have been having success with the stuff I have bought and the any shop receipts have uploaded ok.

Keeping up with the walking but the routes I take don't always take me past any likely wombling spots, bit I'm liking the looking, sort of gives me a purpose on the walk. I see a lot of drinks cans, is there any financial reward on these nowadays ?

Bobarella

No not dim. I think it tells you the size for each offer though but I'm off to check for you.
Sadly I don't think drinks cans can be wombled. Happy to be proven wrong though anyone else? ?

Bobarella

Sazzie - Having checked, you just need to click on the pictures in Shoptize or Checkout smart, and it gives you the exact details of the product you can apply the offer too. Hope that helps

Bobarella

I was a bit annoyed with shoptize this week as they won't credit me 25p for buying milk that I know should be included in the offer. Every time I upload my reciept I get a fail. Weird. But as it's free money you can but try.

I had a friend visiting this weekend and as we were walking home she found £20 on the floor! jammy or what! haha

Ive found a few pennies here and there and actually haven't been to any supermarkets to womble receipts.

I have just started a new job that requires me to pay £6 a day for parking in the city centre I feel like any spare money i do find/ save is just going towards that at the moment rather than into my little savings pot.

Bobarella

Sophie -wow to your friends find. Is there any way you could get there without paying the money?

Just a 25p shoptize milk credit for me today. OH thinks I'm nuts doing this, but I'll show him!;)
