    This morning we celebrated a colleague's promotion with a bottle of champagne. Does anyone actually enjoy alcohol at 9am, or champagne? I don't enjoy either one, so I won't claim the womble.
    I had the leftover baguette for lunch, so I'll claim €1, which is what my lunches normally cost. The baguette itself cost €3,90, but I am not comfortable claiming that.

    I found a penny outside the back door of a house we went to view.
    Then we put in an offer and it was accepted.
    Looks like we are going to have a mortgage soon!!

    Still wombling receipts at T0sc0s - have 40 wombled points so far this week.

    Lots of very strange wombles lately, big pots of alpro yogurt for 30p, hummus for 6p, bags of salad 5p, bear fruit yo yos 10p, big bag of quinoa 56p, big bag of mixed seeds 30p. Not stuff you would put on your shopping list, but lots of things that will make the store cupboard more interesting.

    Now I am eating from the cupboards so we have less to move..... it is going to make for interesting menu plans!!

    But will not be sad at paying half the amount on mortgage payments we have been paying on rent.

  • Another 1p roadkill for me today. Slowly but surely i suppose :)

    My quidco account and contactless MyRewards from Natwest are slowly topping up nicely so I'm hoping ill be able to declare something from those soon too.

    Until then ill keep my head down and my eyes open :)

    Congrats Foxholes, hope the move is a smooth as possible for you :beer:
