    Savvy Shopper! I've been Money Tipped!
    Literally just pennies from receipts this week. Was lucky and found an extra 2 - so 2p more in the kitty.

    We've had more misfortune this week with work, so things are going to get even tighter for the foreseeable. Panic wouldn't begin to describe what I'm feeling. Can't let OH know though as it's his business that's just taken a huge hit.

    Not sure there are enough receipts out there to cheer me up at the moment.

    So sorry to read that Autumn Leaves.

    Wombled another Asda receipt & whomever does the analysis is going to reckon I've had another child & taken up alcoholism, rather than hosting a particularly wild party. Loads more nappies & gin, and another voucher, for £4.82. I topped it up & the Christmas fund is another £5 fatter.

    Morning all and welcome to new wombles :wave:

    Some great wombling going on and I'm laughing over the confusion you're creating in the analysis department DigForVictory :rotfl:

    Sorry to hear finances are under pressure autumnleaves - must be a terrible worry for you.

    I've only got a pseudo-womble to put forward today as we were going to buy a new dishwasher anyway, but the kitchen company we are going with had an offer on a new integrated one if ordered by the end of the month. was £350, but only £99 to customers with an existing quote in the system. Saved £251....Yippee :j

    Of course. Welcome Houseplant. You are our 50th womble :)

    Yippee! I've got quite a bit of learning to do but I've been reading this thread with great interest.

    I should set a goal shouldn't I?
    Would that be for the rest of this year?

    Also have some work to do working out what stuff equates to financially.

    So far there's my 27 nectar points and a free French stick.
