    Some great wombling going on!

    I managed to be given a long length of Sky cable and some connectors that will allow us to feed through to the boys' room in the new caravan, so it wont be utter hell while we are out of the house during the renovations. The satellite man said he felt sorry for me.

    I'll claim £5, as I've no idea of the true value. His kindness was priceless.

    Bless you Dizzy, I don't know how you do it. It will be so amazing when your house is ready.

    Some business lunch leftovers serve me for dinner; working late today: a white kaiserbrötchen with salmon, a diamond shaped olive bun with mozzarella, a small lentil salad and a small tabouleh salad. I'll claim €2. (I think the company paid €13 for them :eek:)

    Yum Siebrie:T

    Well done on your saving Sugarbaby love best offering :)

    Today I have found 9p roadkill so far. Used it in the self service till.

    Used a 30 extra points coupon for Mayo I was buying anyway.
    Had the CS add on 14 points that I'd just wombled.
    Scanned a triple points coupon.

    At the library have been using their WiFi on my tablet whilst DD naps. Also took out a book for her as every 6 books you take out, entitles you to a free DVD hire and DS really wants me to get the new Ghost busters movie out for him. Which will be a £2.50 saving on hire costs.

    Evening!
    Received a £5 voucher for the ambiguously titled 'party food' from Mr T. I have been to some odd themed parties in my time, so surely there are not many items which could be argued NOT to be party food? But, I digress....

    Swiped a 3x nect3r points till spit coupon on a £2 shop, it all adds up.

    Wombled 78 cc points at Mr T and 205points at Mr M as the previous three people at the self service till had all left their receipts in the machine - so really I was stopping it from jamming. honest I was.... straight to CS Hector to stick them on my account, and I am already well into the 4000s so there will probably be another £5 before Xmas. yay! someone must have been buying a lot of things with get extra 200 points on them on those receipts!

    Wombled two armchairs for free, from a lady downsizing via Streetlife, and also a free 3 tier hamster palace for the soon to be newest arrival to the Foxhole. Not a Siberian hamster a la Manuel, but a very cute little Russian hamster.
    Lots of v cheap books in charity shops at the moment, massive savings compared with buying them new.

    Argos are doing their spend £100+ get a £10 voucher, spend £50+ get a £5 voucher, I only noticed after I ordered for delivery in store, so I just reordered and split my order to get £15 rather than just £10. In case anyone else is considering an Argos order for Xmas, split it, split it, split it:money:!

    Foxy horray to not paying for the armchairs after all! Good old Street life!

    Husky I'm forever picking up things I think are coins. But many are so its always worth going for it.

    Last night I got 5 loaves for less than £1 instead of £1 each (Kingsmill) all now in the freezer

    Today I found 28p in roadkill & my son found £1.01 in his school yard :)
