A couple of years back I rescued a wheelbarrow from a builders skip - they'd gone, and left a handsome if slightly battered Haemmerlin barrow.
Being short, I struggled a bit, but then used it to wheel my workbag back to the car. Sons have adopted it as a family mascot as well as workhorse.
Never stop quietly eyeing skips. All sorts of odd delights lurk.0 -
I went to a wedding and had to kit out the 4 boys in suits/waistcoat/cravat, so started looking in Feb and resold after the wedding in June - made over £100 as it was full wedding season and I had bought in the low season. So odd to think a suit has a season. They go crazy in December for the Christmas wedding/ Hogmany too.
Wow great bargain:j" Your vibe attracts your tribe":D

Have just bounced off an unexpected penalty for wombling Asda receipts - in the T&Cs is says
"Each household can only claim a maximum of 10 vouchers per calendar month, or a maximum value of £100 in vouchers per calendar month"
So the one for 48 pence means I can't claim the £1.63 one yet. Bother!0 -
