First coin for roadkill ranch!

Nipped into Sainsburys on the way home from work and there it was, a shiny 5 pence by the fruit and veg

Where do people tend to find the price match/unclaimed points receipts? Anywhere in particular inside or outside?

I have tended to note where there is a lot of rubbish around and then gone for a nose there. I have twice found banks of paper built up in one place and bingo coupons. But keep your eyes out by the tills too.

Loving this thread! Amazed at all your finds!
I found a receipt at the weekend for 231 c/card points so will add that later in the week.
Mum moved into a place with communal bins last year, so far out of the recycling she has fished out:
A big box of printer paper (will do us for years, usually just print coupons)
A tesco Cath Kidston shopping bag
A thin jumper (perfect for extra layers when walking the dog)
Some wicker baskets

Can't believe what some people throw away.
My best brand match voucher I found was for £6.73 and the best receipt was the one mentioned above.
I don't keep track of what I collect as it doesn't happen very often but would be very interested to hear what you all manage to womble over the year!

Hi womblers,
I went to s today, picked up a basket with a small receipt sitting in there, wondered to the sale section, picked up the receipt, left putting empty basket back 2 points to be added to my nectar card next time in.
Another NSD today

Wow Merzal, your mum has had some fantastic finds there. When I found my basket of beautiful throws I kept looking around to see if someone would come running out when I took them from the kerbside. You can't believe anyone would just throw £50 worth of belongings away like that. Good on her for reusing those items and keeping them from landfill.
Well done on your big points win too.

Gill - another score, good going!

Thinking about it my best score was a few years ago, I had a few points added except they inputted the wrong amount of points, they accidentally added over 24,000 points! I rang customer services and they said I could keep them! They were worth £240 so I exchanged them for virgin vouchers (£960) and this went towards a lovely holiday for me and mum!
My friend said they had probably put the date in instead of the points! Was def worth adding that receipt!

Bobarella

Blimey that is an incredible example of how you can beat the system! Where did you go?

Bobarella

So today's wombling was very official and funded by my boss asking me to buy £30 worth of shopping which pushed my points up somewhat. Only another £6 to go till I can pay a £10 er off my credit card for free

We booked to go to Egypt but we got stuck at the airport as flights were cancelled due to snow. So we rebooked and went to Sri Lanka, it was amazing!
Can't believe how much you get from your wobbling, very impressed!

This is a great thread, I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for some receipts next time I go to the supermarket.
