  • Hi Wombles,
    Today I had a lovely treat - my friend bought tickets to the QVC beauty bash. The ticket cost £20. However, whilst there I had the following
    - free tea and cakes
    - free hand massage
    - free makeover with glossy photo print out to keep
    - free eyebrow threading
    We also recieved a goody bag each which I would guess is worth around £200! A few products I like and will keep. Others will make nice presents for friends. I might swap some items with my friend - she won't use the fake tan but I will. She's not getting the OPI nailvarnish though!!!
    Well worth £20 I'd say, but again not really a womble. I will work out what I would have spent on myself and presents and threading, less the £20 entrance fee and let you know what I "saved"

    In the Family Union newspaper it said that members can get a 10% discount on their tv/phone/internet package, so I went to the website and entered my details. It is already in force, the very next day! It should save us €6,53/month = €78,36!

    Great womble Siebrie - excellent saving!

    You had a lovely treat Goingtodoit - very envious ;)

    My online food order came yesterday but I didn't get a chance to add up my savings then, but here it is now:

    Substitutions gave me 220g extra king prawns but price matched to the cost of my original choice, so I'm hoping a claim of £1.72 will be OK? Also got promotional savings totalling £13.45 (carrier bag charge of 40p taken into account.

    I made a yummy steak and veg puff pastry pie using YS meat I bought on a whim yesterday. Should've been enough for two meals, but DH said it was tasty and polished it all off :rotfl: Prawn curry (loaded with free ones) for dinner later. Off to update my total...

    I'm waiting for some cash back to track on my account but not sure how long you have to wait fore you can ask for a pay out? Anyone?

    Walked over 4 miles today - not a thing found!

    Went into a Mr T Express and their self service was bulging with receipts - unfortunately I was being watched like a hawk. But I managed to claim one extra with my own. So I have a point waiting to be added on my next trip to a big M T. Both receipts through COS so an extra 2p today

    My daughter gave me another £50 as she is staying at home for another week (she is enjoying being at home obviously)

    Got £3.38 Quidco cashback

    Got £60 cash and a £50 Tesco Gift card from my lovely sister Joyce because she finally got her bonus from Avon and hundreds of pounds repaid that her son owed her and was generous to me

    75 free photo prints and free £5 credit plus 30% off code from Snapfish = £6.75 + £5 + £2.01 = £13.76

    A great week for me thanks to the generosity of my daughter and sister

    #33 Total for this week = £177.14


    #33 Current Total = £280
