Hello everyone
£5.20 saved on YS items in Iceland plus 1p roadkill. Glad to be back again.Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.0 -
For some reason Mr Morris and his Sons sent me a load of vouchers for money off stuff that I actually usually buy. So £1.20 off my shop (any veg/ any salad/ a brand of sliced bread that was YS(20p, yay!!) and 1800 extra points, so combined with last week's 3000 extra points coupon till spit, that gave me a £5 voucher, I think I will be getting another voucher quite soon - I will need petrol this week and it may just tip me over the 5000 points.
That and I have more coupons to use that will give me extra points.4/10/25Three Years Mortgage Free Yay!

Just did the Tesco Clubcard survey - 25 points
Got some YS stuff in M&S the other day. Normally I find their items are reduced by less than £1 so I don't bother buying anything, but last week I got a YS pizza for OH for £2.80 (normally £4) and two packs of mini yumyums for 30p each (normally 75p each) - so that's £2.10 womble.
Year total - £4.32"You won't bloom until you're planted" - Graffiti spotted in Newcastle.
