    My daughter paid £10.33 for a ticket for me to go to Hidden Rooms for an escape room game with her and her brother. We had fun, but we did not manage to work out all of the clues in the 60 minutes, so we were then released from the room :o

    Had a takeaway meal from the local Caribbean takeaway paid for by my daughter £4

    Found 2p on the floor of the Caribbean takeaway

    #33 current total = £2437.52

    Wow hidden rooms sounds a lot of fun.

    Iceland are giving away pizza trays with any rising dough pizza (one per customer) so i bought a pizza and so did my boyfriend, pizza trays state they have a rrp of 3 quid, so 6 quid wombled there.

    Also I'm counting this as a womble. Me and my boyfriend play football and he's been wanting me to get football boots, to the point he was going to buy them for me, we were looking at spending 20 quid but then found a pair in my size in the charity shop for 4 pounds, so 16 pounds saving there.

    Total 22 quid :)

    Fantastic Florence well done!

    Got two enamelled tin mugs in a charity shop for £3 - on Amazon selling for £15 that pair! Nominal Womble of £12.

    Discovered teenagers enjoy the coin in slot going round & round & round donation box - 17 pence in shrapnel charmed two teens for near half an hour! (Priceless - may work on other children...)

    Excavated exam pencil cases from storage & also found rulers, erasers & pencil sharpeners - three exam kits assembled for nothing this year & I think £1.70 last year. It pays to have a specific drawer for stationery!
