I have:
Taken the kids to the cinema, went to the kids club at Odeon to see Bee Movie, and got 5 premier seats for £7.50, bought drinks and sweets from Tesco so that came to £2.85 and went on the train using fam rail card which cost £5.80. Was really money saving/tight and sent mum on the bus as she gets it free :rotfl:.
Bought tickets to see Water Horse at Odeon kids club for saturday, so will do above again. Premier seats are the same price as normal seats for kids club - £2.50 and adults go free :T
Was given a free paper in town.
Checked for mystery shops, none as usual
Checked online banking.
Paid some bills.
Checked Boots machine, no good offers.
Checked ebay sales, doing good :T but must try and list something....
And I will:

Evening all,
My dfw things for today:- Boots 1 – used £2 till cosmetic voucher on a Bourjois sharpener = free
- Boots 2 – printed off a 75 points on a £10 spend voucher (as Boots 3 never have those voucher for me to print)
- Boots 3 – got 3 x pks Roc face wipes, Boots foot powder (for DH who will give me cash), 2 x Boots smile kids toothbrushes (used dble points coupon which wouldn’t work but kind SA got points manually added for me, 10% off voucher, 3 x £5 off ROC vouchers). Didn’t spend any money but wish I hadn’t wasted my 10% off coupon and brought more stuff as my total was under £14. I had miscalculated.
- I got another till spit so just got another free Bourjois sharpener to use up the voucher.
- I also spent £20 of my points on 4 items reduced to £5 each, last reduced price was £12.50 each on Sunday. I should be able to sell them on Ebay and make the £20 back as well as £20 profit.
- Asda- got Asda Danish bread 39p, 6 x barn eggs reduced to 49p and 2 x 200g extra special beef mince reduced to 70p each
- Found 3p
- Washing done at 30deg quick wash and drying indoors
- Received something to trial for 14 days in mail. Eventually I will complete survey about trial for £4 Boots vouchers
