Hahaha :rotfl: That's a bit like my DH's suggestion of claiming 5p each time I use the wombled canvas shopping bag he brought back from a tool show yesterday

That said, the bag would be at least 50p to buy, so I'm adding that to my total. Only thing is I'll be advertising a well-known tool manufacturer each time it's used.

Excellent start! :T


I hope you get some work soon - it can't be easy not knowing what week you will get wages and when you'll be living on fresh air

Thank you. It's not easy, especially as we are both freelance and have very hit and miss work. But I always keep my chip - something will come along

Got a whopping penny from COS last night after a trip to Mr T. We saved 50p on their Brand Match at the till. Then this morning, a cheque arrived from InboxPounds for £20 :T

Just wombled £4 from the street!! 2x£1 and a £2 coin. It was just lying there by a row of takeaway shops. A quick 360° look around, stoop, scoop and in my pocket. I don't think I even paused my walking pace!:rotfl:
I cleaned and organised my friends fridge/freezer, and he told me to take the 3 free range eggs and half a punnet of mushrooms. The eggs work out at 90p and the mushrooms, 45p. Total womble for today....£5.35:D

Puts my penny I found whilst out and about this morning to shame! Nice one though!

Just found a fiver on the high street! Thought it was fake but picked it up and it was real!

FunBrum - you are such a natural. Are you sure you don't have womble in the family somewhere

Not at all. If you weren't looking for pennies etc you wouldn't find ££s

I forgot to claim the left-overs from sil's Christmas hamper. There were enough ingredients to make 3 meals for 4, so I'm claiming €20.


Yesterday I wombled a piece of raspberry cake at work, I'm claiming €2 (posh bakery). I could have wombled a posh salad, but it looked weird; the main ingredient seemed to be a large blob of phi.ladelphia with various roasted veg on top, decorated with pieces of French and Italian cheeses.

Ha ha no. But I think you are wise to go with your gut sometimes. Maybe it was too rich and would have given you a bad tummy. Who knows.

It's the first time I've bagged that much off the floor, and your penny is just as important! :j

Bob....my sister is the real wombler of the family. She's like a blooming magpie!:rotfl:
Well done on the fiver!!

Carry On Wombling!:T
