2 of my 5 like the sticks so I buy them as well. I struggle to use the vouchers as they seem to activate after the shop, I'm too lazy to go round again, and we only shop in person by exception so they expire.My mortgage free diary: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6498069/whoops-here-comes-the-cheese

Happy Sunday everyone 🌟
@redofromstart I go into the app and manually activate the vouchers before I go in. The offers and rewards only last 7 days though so mine do often expire. It’s pretty sneaky as I don’t always go to the same place and I won’t be bullied to go in for a measly £2 voucher or a free item I wouldn’t normally get 😬
I was just short of 9k steps yesterday, which is amazing for me. I’ll try to do similar today, but will be taking dog for a drive which won’t help. I need to get up…I’m covered in cats and the one sat on my arm and chest is wet through so I’m damp. You wouldn’t think this would happen with house cats, but his dad reports he had a nice long sit in the kitchen sink, so that explains it 🙄
I will try to get some house jobs ticked off today along with plenty of walking steps. I have been walking quite fast around the garden this week - enough to be breathing faster and feeling the burn - Fitbit puts it in the nutra check app as ‘walking, less than 2mph, strolling very slowly’ 😨 Rude! I couldn’t walk any faster without actually running, so I’m not sure how it measures it 🤣

Happy Monday everyone. It’s been manic here today as it’s the first workday of the financial year.
I had a win though, I ordered my 500 litres of heating oil and it was just over £100 cheaper than when I ordered 5 months ago. Lovely. I put £50 into pb’s and £50 to savings and the rest has stayed in this months spends.
I have loaded the pb app so I can check quickly if I’ve won. It says the results are due tomorrow, so I’m guessing I didn’t win big… again! I never win the million (stamps foot).
Anyway, back to work I go. I hope you are having a good day ☕️🌟Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Great news about the oil. Someone in Somerset apparently won £1m. Sadly it wasn't me"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 McGee1

Yes, there’s always next month. Wouldn’t it be lovely if we had an MSE millionaire 😁 There’s still time for a smaller win, so fingers crossed for us all.Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien
