    My last session was a bit disappointing. Did the same as previously but the 10 day reference must have been extra low, so only a minuscule amount saved. Just 19p.

    All ours are in now, for the 3 we did we got a total of 4672 points.  Not that much to cut down on really, we just delayed making dinner till the sessions were finished.

    Still.....every little helps!
  • 5th Dec, 7704. Not bad for the shorter session.

    I got the frowny face of shame :lol: 🤦 if I'd known washing was being done then, I'd not have opted in!


    You get entry into the free prize draw for opting in regardless of saving anything - odds are over 500,000 to 1 but over £1,100 is worth having for nothing

    Good point.  I'd have probably tied myself up in a moral quandary though, to be fair!
