  • As suspected - too wet for a proper womble today... :(
  • First official post as a fully fledged Womble. #excited

    55p is my grand total for this weekend from change around the house and a few pennies while out and about.

    Have decided to stick to basic womblings for now just stuff like coupons, road kill and free stuff till I get a total grasp on it

    My plan is to save my roadkill till Jan-may (mybday) and then from May-dec and hopefully get enough for some nice treats for me like prosseco and posh nibbles or even a meal out!!!! Depends how good my womb long skills are lol
    it's ok, u got this!
  • I managed to womble 2 receipts in Tesco on Friday, haven't added them to my card yet but they come to 8 points so that's the equivalent of 8p.

    I've also just filled out a Tesco survey so that's another 25 points added to the clubcard.

    I also finally found my first roadkill on Friday! I was quite excited as it looked like a 5p piece, but when I picked it up it was actually a US dime XD I've kept it anyway as there's a charity I know that collects foreign currency during the year and then sells it to raise extra money, so I'll just keep any foreign roadkill to one side to pass on to them at the end of the year.

    Haven't been well today but managed to womble from my sister, about 3lbs of tomatoes, two large tubs of strawberry yoghurt and two portions of granola.:)
    She also gave me half a spitroast chicken that I quickly turned into a curry for a friend. The toms will be turned into pasta sauce.:D
    I was thinking of adding £3 to my total to cover my freebies.:A
    My sister is a great Wombler, as she has such a range of contacts and puts the feelers out. Today she wombled a tumble dryer for my daughter!:rotfl:

    My lovely friend gave me a big bottle of home-made sloe gin today :j obviously for when I've finished the dryathlon attempt this month... Difficult to price for wombling purposes, but Tesco have a 70cl bottle on sale, so I have costed my gift pro-rata and have calculated £9.49 for my 500ml bottle. Looking forward to that in February :beer:

    No wombling for me this week as I've scarcely left the flat. I've been working night shifts this week so when I have been out I've been a zombie - but I did check the car park the other day.

    No work booked now for the foreseeable :eek: so need to be crawling around the streets wombling :rotfl:

    2p from receipts uploaded to CoS yesterday both from my own purchases. One I should get 200 bonus nectar points for, making my £1 purchase free.

    I went to see Star Wars yesterday and got the ticket through work which saved me £3.38.
