Im finally off of the mark with my wombling for the year
#10- £8.56
This is through 3 APG receipts i had, 2 were mine and one i wombled.
I have also been walking to work rather than get the bus or use my car for the last few days which is saving me money everyday, however I'm not sure whether to put this towards my total? as I'm not putting it aside as and when i do it. Thoughts please.
Everyone is doing brilliantly! Im hoping my walk to work this morning will produce some goodies. The street i walk down is full of betting shops and pubs so id expect some change to turn up, it was the same street my friend found £20 a few months back.

I didn't know the Police gave plimsoles - learnt something new today!
Got an early womble to report - DH won £25 on the lotto last night! Got 3 numbers on a lucky dip. Shame it wasn't the £50million, but don't wanna be greedyHe's putting towards a debt once it's collected :T
We are only in the early part of January and my wombling has already netted over £130!!0 -
53p has tracked on TCB for a couple of items that I bought online. I also have £20 of Amazon vouchers from surveys that I am going to use to get some new music. Oh and 53 nectar points for filling up my car at the weekend.LBM: Dec 2012 - Debt £38,180/ Now £0.

Morning fellow Womblers
20p found under one sons bed
Found restaurant vouchers (gifts received by husband through work forgotten about) that were out of date by 6 months and a year ...called at the restaurant and they are allowing me an extension to bothone to be used in 2 months £50 and another to be used by the end of June £50. Very happy about this
. Going to add this as a separate find to my total.
Have had money confirmed from Quidcooo but wont add this until its hit the bank.
Also I use my Mr TEES vouchers for eating out treats. So for £10 vouchers we receive £40 restaurant vouchers. Each £2.50 is worth £10. Great for family birthdays and food on holiday in Uk.0 -

No where near a police station. Was by a grammar school. It was a private one so I doubt they will miss a pair of £3.50 pumps!Living a frugal retirement without treading on the planet :T

I had three lovely wombles!
Yesterday I handed in a voucher I received for my birthday for a free entry to the sauna, worth €26. It comes from the sauna, so no-one I know paid for it.
This morning I had a chair massage at work; they come every month, and you just have to put your name on the calendar. I'm guessing it's worth €20, and it's a good thing the company is paying, because I certainly wouldn't!
Today's business lunch was overordered by our Receptionist, so I had a free salad, and have 2 rolls for tomorrow's lunch. Value 2x€4.50 + €2.50.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 Wombles,
This Womble is feeling totally fed up today. Saved 40p on car parking but then got caught in a massive downpour. A drenched me found 1p on my way back to the car. So 41p is all I have saved for my efforts:mad:Pay ALL your debts by Xmas 2016 - No 30 £981.00/£3000:
