Have you discovered Shopmium yet? I remember when I found it thinking "ooh, H**** would like have likes this back in the day" Let me know if you want a referral code, useful for storing treats up for ds/dd

Nope, not discovered it yet but have seen it mentioned.in diaries so, yes please, let me have a referral code and I'll look into it!

My referral code is ACMUMGUE - anyone can use it

When you join up you get a free box of Cornettos, it's really simple to use and often has freebie items on there, you just buy it, scan your receipt via the app on your phone and they refund you in a day or two, it's great

Thank you! I'll be doing that tomorrow. So glad I came back to MSE....I mean, free ice cream....what's not to love!!

In other news, I have a small pay rise from the beginning of September. Half will go into my general housekeeping account to cover increases in bills but I've increased my monthly sharesave plan by a little bit too. It forms part of my "offset" pot which will be used to pay the balance of the mortgage off at the end of the 5 year fixed term.

Welcome back - think I have worked out who you 'used' to be :j Used to follow you - think there may have been some skiing involved??

Skiing is still very much part of life. DD has spent the last 3 winters working in Switzerland and DS still races. All my previous efforts were not in vain. :T And OH, who had never skied before we met, has become addicted too. :j

Now, if only I didn't have a fractured hip, lol!! :rotfl:
