    Quidco have coughed up £3.60 in amazon vouchers :j

    Also 25p Shopitize for milk
    2p COS receipt uploads.

    I'm still waiting on some paypal and amazon vouchers to arrive from GlobalOpinionThingy, so I'll add those when they arrive. Waiting to get to $10 before cashing out on clixense - another 69cents needed.

    Wow. Do you still have either of them?

    No. One was years ago and has gone to the great carpark in the sky. The other I had for a couple of years then it got stolen from outside where I worked and was wrecked..:(


    Incidentally, does redundancy money count as wombled? I certainly didn't do anything to get it!! :rotfl:

  • Hi Bob and wombles, Hope you are all well. Wombled £1.00 in loose change from my son so I've added that in my signature. Saw 4p in roadkill but it had been driven over so many times it was almost unrecognisable so didn't bother lifting it.

    3p roadkill today and another £2.50 nectar points by adding on reciepts.


    Have been watching the original episodes of Only Fools and Horses on Netflix. It's quite funny how Un PC it all was. Just watched one where Del and Rodney end up in a gay bar and Del declares the barman a 'bandit' I will be interested to see what other clangers I unearth.....

    OH strikes again! He'd emptied his pockets - this time on the bed - and 5p was left unclaimed on the bedroom floor. So, into the 5p pot it's gone - he'll never know!!!!!!!! :D
