    Hello! Can I join please? I'm always looking for dropped change, receipts with unclaimed points and shopping for bargains - I've always been rubbish at keeping a running total.

    Thank you :)

    Well, day one wombling total stands at a free yogurt and fruit at work (was going in the bin although not out of date until tomorrow, so gladly rescued it :D)

    Also found a 5p which will be going into the change jar towards my 365 penny a day challenge..

    2p roadkill

    I bought 30 cooked chicken wings form Morrison's hot counter for £7 on offer and saved myself £2

    I bought Morrison's The Best piccolo tomatoes X 2 on offer reduced from £1.75 to £1.12 saving myself £1.26

    Wayne bought me 2 bottles of water last night at Karaoke £3

    I bought a new black leather Osprey purse for myself on eBay after my offer was accepted, which saved me £4.99 on the Buy it Now price

    #13 current price = £4063.08

    Great start Pippy! Wombling becomes very addictive...be warned :rotfl:

    Apologies Bob, but I haven't done my first of the month total yet. I promise to do it ASAP :o

    DH came home with a fleece blanket from work, which was a [STRIKE]bribe[/STRIKE] freebie from a sales rep. It's black, so will pick up all the pet hair, obviously, but until it becomes fur-encrusted, it will have pride of place on the sofa. Claiming £4 for this.

    I also rediscovered a £2 coin in a pocket of my handbag, but that was from egg sales already claimed. A brief flutter of joy though!

    One gym class provided by employer €5
    Orange from Reception €0,20
    One bottle of shampoo and one bottle of conditioner from a colleague €2 (she said it made her hair dry, even though it was labelled 'anti-frizz'. I'll try them, and if I don't like them, they'll be either handsoap, cleaning soap, or donated.)
    One child's apron from same colleague (a gimmick when she was buying a certain brand of apples) €0,20.
