Hello thought i would pop over to say hello. I will have to have a proper read. I just had a quick look though and have spotted you have an iceland card. We have a food warehouse just opened near us who are owned by iceland. I got a card because the lady on.the till said they would send me a voucher for a pizza and ice-cream. I just wondered how the card works though. Is it just for saving like christmas saving stamps shops used to sell? Is it worth me doing anything with it? Any tips welcome.Jan 18 Joint debts 35,213

Thanks for popping in
I only got it when we went to a Food Warehouse. I wasn't sure what it was. But yes, it's a savings card. I haven't put any money on it, but they gave me the £2 bonus for opening it, and I've since had an email saying that as it's my birthday soon I can go in and get a free dessert. So I'll probably use that.
I think the bonus for saving isn't too bad, so if I start using Iceland or food warehouse fairly regularly I might put a bit of cash on it to get the bonus."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

I sold 2 items yesterday, so pleased about that :T They've both paid too so can get them in the post today.
Going to try and get some listing done for DH later, and maybe look at some for me too.
Not much else to report at the moment!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

I did 16 listings yesterday for DH, didn't do any for me. Will try this weekend.
I went to SW yesterday and got slimmer of the week and my half stone award :T :T Got a nice bag of food too, so that will save me some moneyI did splash out on a 12 week countdown as that gives 2 weeks free, so that was £50, but I'm committed now for the 12 weeks. I also get a free cookbook too, so will have a good look through that, take out any recipes I like and then sell it to try and recoup some cash.
