Wow everyone has been doing so well! Thanks for the YTDs will get them updated.
My son was delighted yesterday to discover a vending machine with a packet of crisps half out of its clip holder. He paid for a pack and of course got two.

I've had fabulous news I've won £500 in a competition!! I've spent it in my mind a zillion times over!
I've been to the cinema today and done lots of wombling!
I bought reduced price tickets through a work site online, saving £7.20, we parked in a shopping centre across the road rather than the cinema's saving £1.50, whilst we were there I sneaked in water (from a market research) a skinny popcorn (on a diet) saving me £5. I then got a 75p shampoo from Boots and got 75 points hence making it Free!! (have have the boots app and needed to accept the offer beforehand).

Saved 8.04 feeding ravenous teenagers at McDs thanks both to vouchers in the Metro & the sweet child on the till who said "keep the vouchers", so there is more yet to save!
I've also got a very similar promotion from Burger King for the same sort of thing so rewarding exam candidates has become a sight more affordable, if still poor form.0 -
