    Not much wombling happening here unfortunately.... I did find a 14 day free trial of a prebiotic I was looking at though, so have sent off for it. I've put a link in the Freebies section.

    I also sent off for the £3 grow your own seeds book and seeds from the MSE email :money: (RRP £20+).

    Am going shopping tomorrow so hopefully will have more luck then...

    Savvy Shopper! I've been Money Tipped!
    Good morning Wombles

    Sorry for disappearing down the Womble hole again. I am really struggling for time to do any of my fun things at the moment.

    Just a quick one to record an excellent night where I was given some healthy skincare products, food and some beautiful stationary from one of our events. Going to estimate £30.

    Have a great weekend and I will endeavour to catch up with all your doings soon!

    Bob
