A piece of bakery apple pie from the boss for a colleague with a birthday: €2.
And 4 I/kea bags full of girl's clothes from a colleague, who has 3 daughters a few years older than mine. All branded: Burberry, Hilfiger, etc. New value: about €2.000 I'd say, but I'll claim €250.Are you wombling, too, in '22? € 58,96 = £ 52.09Wombling in Restrictive Times (2021) € 2.138,82 = £ 1,813.15Wombabeluba 2020! € 453,22 = £ 403.842019's wi-wa-wombles € 2.244,20 = £ 1,909.46Wombling to wealth 2018 € 972,97 = £ 879.54Still a womble 2017 #25 € 7.116,68 = £ 6,309.50Wombling Free 2016 #2 € 3.484,31 = £ 3,104.590 -
Wow Sieb that is an amazing womble and very kind of your friend.
Thanks The Only I will check them out.
I wombled 43 points from Tesko today and had lunch bought for me. My friend gave me some cooked damsons so had them for pudding. Will claim the points when I spend them and claim £3 for lunch etc but forgot to update signature so will do it later.Wombling £457.410 -
Today is my lucky day! I also wombled a small box full of toothpaste, as part of a Word of Mouth campaign. I got selected to try and hand out samples of P.arodontax toothpaste; every week I have to write a little report about how I appreciate the product and about the conversations I have had about it. The toothpaste retails at €3,99 (GBP3) per tube, so I reckon there's €30 in that box, including a branded tootbrush and a mouthwash.Are you wombling, too, in '22? € 58,96 = £ 52.09Wombling in Restrictive Times (2021) € 2.138,82 = £ 1,813.15Wombabeluba 2020! € 453,22 = £ 403.842019's wi-wa-wombles € 2.244,20 = £ 1,909.46Wombling to wealth 2018 € 972,97 = £ 879.54Still a womble 2017 #25 € 7.116,68 = £ 6,309.50Wombling Free 2016 #2 € 3.484,31 = £ 3,104.590

Hi folks.:hello:
Just popped in to say well done on your wombling, and keep it up!
My free trip I wombled is calculated to, flight £267, I've estimated £3 per day for food, as that's with us eating in and the salads, fish and fruit is cheap here. So £150 & maybe £50 for drink, totalling £467. :beer:
I had already had a 2 week holiday booked A/I on the Island so my return flight is prepaid! Not a bad womble really!
I'm managing not to spend anything as there is plenty to do for free. I still haven't found any roadkill though!;)Living a frugal retirement without treading on the planet :T

Oh Funbrum I am so jealous of you.
You must be loving it out there.
As for me, I had a good wombling day yesterday. My mam is moving house soon and so is decluttering her house. I wombled 3 Vaseline lip balms (£3), 8 Kilner jars (god knows how much) and a couple of unworn jumpers from my stepdad for dh (£20). I also got a free bag of cat litter (£12) due to my pet shop loyalty scheme...Not giving up
