I know I'm a DFW because...
I love spreadsheets...I love spending Sunday mornings going over the online statement for the last week and updating my coloumns, I even made a snowballing spreadsheet last week-I emailed it to OH because I was so proud of how nice it looked :rotfl:

DH has come home on the occasional birthday/anniversary with a wee bunch of flowers for me from Asda and the romantic words - "You know how much I love you - these weren't Whoopsed"

He he - am loving the thread and nodding along to many of the suggestions!
You know your a DFW when
- you hover at the supermarket waiting for the cheap bread - to freeze
- when your little ones bring things they have grown out of for you to ebay!
- feel excited at the prospect of 38p wipes - thought I may wee a little - lol!!!
- queue outside millets sale day to get the cheap waterproofs (Oh yes ) :rotfl:!!!!!!!)

kitschy

• when friends bring a sweater and slippers round because they know the heating doesn't go on at your house:rolleyes:
• when the lady behind the counter at the bank knows not to try and sell you any of their products because you know that their 5%isn't the same as your 5%
• when your Mum calls you to talk to the utility salesman who's on their doorstep

Your friends ring you cos you never ring them till its cheap (or free!)
The freezer is full - and its all reduced items
People send off for freebies for you - no matter what it is!

that and saving loo roll tubes to plant seeds in and pop bottles to cut in half and creat mini greenhouses over the plants, and asking all family members to do the same for you

I grow strawberries in hanging baskets and use cut off pop bottles to grow the runners in, I just tie them to the bracket and then I can see the roots , take it down and start again, toilet roll tubes are brilliant for parsnips, everyone saves them for me, and I fetched the shredded paper home for my compost bins, cos I could do a 30 min talk on how brilliant they are. Sad I know.

People at work ask me if there's any offers going that are any good, and 1 lad saves me the vouchers out of the Sun, but then he know's I'm lurking on here when I can, good job i can't be arrested for it.

You know you are a DFW when... you watch programmes on telly about how to save money on food etc and you have a rubber brick next to you to throw at the screen.....
