    - you are about to make a financial decision and you come here and post a thread about it BEFORE you discuss with your friends/fam :)
    - you are in heavens when at the end of the day you can say you had an NSD
    - you have a product you usually buy (like diet coke for me) and you can tell exactly at this moment how much it is in tesco, saisburys, asda, lidl, waitrose and, how many cans are in a package and how much is it per can and if there was any 2for1 deal on any of these places lately on your product....
    - you understand what dfw, nsd, bogof, bogohp, oh, dh, ds, cc, cap, cccs, dca, ts, oft, cca, cag etc mean
    - you have at least two ongoing "challenges" at any one time

    You know you're a DFW when:
    -Someone asks if getting your Tesco delivery isn't expensive and you can tell them how much Tesco have paid you for your shopping and delivering it :rotfl:
    -People call you to explain the potential impact of the N.Rock issues to them...
    -You return from shopping and someone says "oh I have that one! so how much cheaper did you get it cos I KNOW you didn't pay what I did!"
    -You sit quietly at work and people stomp in with perfect strangers saying "THAT'S her - she'll help you sort out your credit cards!" :eek:

    You know you are a dfw when:
    • The first thing you do each morning is check all your online accounts and log onto mse:D
    • Anything lurking a day too long in the fridge is made into soup.:D
    • You can get 4 meals from 1 chicken, and then make stock with what's left.:D
    • You talk about pap, IA, snaggles, taxi etc, on dfw and expect OH to know who you are on about :rotfl:
    • You don't buy anything unless you check quidco etc first, and then you double check for codes and discounts before finally ordering anything:rolleyes:
    • It is against the law to spend a £2 coin:eek:
    • You can't wait to get another boots voucher from pigsback so you can stock up on bogof toiletries and get more boots points:D
    Reduce,re-use, recycle.
