Oh, and for any Vegans/ Veggies / Meat reducers, Ocado are doing the 50% off all Fry's frozen food offer again.
I am waiting until the freezer moves across to the new house until I make my order. So don't order it all, save some for me!4/10/22One Year Mortgage Free Yay!

Spent the weekend in London and only found 1p lol.
Someone had placed it half way up the exit escalator at Holborn ... I had a real giggle when I picked it up and wondered did someone place it there deliberately. How sad am I
Found a £10 shop scan voucher that I had received about a year ago and forgot about.
Used £10 Clubcard Vouchers for £40 meal at Prezo at the weekend. All those pennies soon add up.
I bet they did do it deliberately :rotfl:" Your vibe attracts your tribe":D

Foxholes glad to hear all your news..wondered what had become of you
My womble today was 50p roadkill. I was passing a bus stop and had to ask a gaggle of teens (male) to let me through as they were all messing about noisily as they do. Right in the middle of their group I spotted the 50p so I picked it up much to their amusement. Honestly what is wrong with kids today? 50p is a decent amount to find.
I think the trend towards virtual money could have a lot more debt to answer for in a few years. Contact less, paypal, apple pay, whatever, none of it makes the user consider their budget." Your vibe attracts your tribe":D

Oh, also managed to get myself on another 'what lands on your doormat' survey, should get £25 of lovetoshop vouchers to add to the voucher pile, just for opening my post, and have found a mystery shop for the local post office (only £8, but still, £8!) when I need to send a letter anyway.4/10/22One Year Mortgage Free Yay!

If you are doing Checkoutsmart or Shoptize you can take a photo of your receipt and get cashback on items bought / 1p credit per receipt and when it gets large enough you can cash out.
