    Council Tax Support from 5th April 2016 to 4th April 2017 £389.29 :D As I only work term time and I only get paid when I work, my monthly wage fluctuates. I have to send a cover letter with each wage slip asking for a review so that at the end of the financial year, I will only have received the Council Tax support I am entitled to. I had to make a formal complaint quite a few of the month's because the review had not been done and I was either being underpaid or over paid Council Tax Support.

    Hi Wombles

    Another month is coming to an end, feels like 5 minutes since I last said that! Don't forget to post your totals for the YTD tommorow if you want to be updated.

    Spring is definitely good for street finds. So many people in my area are putting good stuff out to the kerb. We narrowly missed out on an office chair for my DH, it was there when I cycled past one way and gone the next. Found a scooter for my DS which he is loving, obviously more money than sense some people :)

    Well done on all your great Wombles.

    Bob

  • Am loving the wombleness of life right now! It dried up for a while in Feb and earlier this month :)

    today:

    2 tesco receipts with 29 & 16 point.

    £3.29 on ys items (including a bunch of flowers for 81p :) ) paid with payqwik app so will get bonus 50 points. I am about 200 points shy of £10 of vouchers in the next round :) I've got 2 more chances to use the app and get 2 x 50 points bonus so just need to womble 100 points over the next month to get £40 of cafe r0uge vouchers :T

    picked up a skirt & a dress in the M&$ sale saving £44.02!

    Think that's it!
