    Hi folks :) Well done with the wombles today :)

    Nice going with the redcurrant bushes determined :D:D

    Ye oldie womblies so far for today:

    Bay sales £37.84

    Amaz0n gift voucher £0.50

    Today I decided to bite the bullet and give a vintage wooden picture frame the distressed look.
    It's turned out fab and I've saved myself at least £20, so decided to claim it as part of my creative wombles.

    I've also just come back from wombling some beautiful vintage / victorian / art nouveau ceramic tiles from a property that's being gutted a few doors down. I need to give them a gentle tile and grout mix clean and check them over, so I'm not sure what to claim at the moment, but will update later - What a womble! :D:D

    Hope everyone is having a blessed wombled day

    Bought 60 dishwasher tabs for £9 reduced to £4.50 that were reduced in Asda. To be honest I would never have paid the full price anyway. I paid with an Asda price guarantee voucher so will just count that £3.26.

    £11 discount off gift vouchers through work site for Morrisons and Costa.

    My F-I-L is a Jeremy too, I sent him his birthday gift and had a delivery confirmation yesterday to let me know it had been handed over in person to someone called Jermey!:eek: New name.

    Amaz0n vouchers £5 and £1 this week. Not wombling much as I am either covered in paint or brick dust, I'm doing diy instead of spending money. It is very boring. :rotfl:
