Let's save some moneyThought it would be a good idea to start a new forum after Jellycat's post recently. If you hear of any good BOGOFs or freebies etc post them here, as well as all the tips for saving money.

ooo I like this.
Nettos have 5 packets of vegetable and flower seeds for £1.00. If you buy them singularly I think they are .25p each.
If you are looking to buy a range cooker, you can get a free hood & stainless steel splashback from Currys at the moment on some ranges. We just saved £200.

K told me that apparently Tesco's has 'Quorn Pieces' on half price 99p.
I am off to get some today as we use alot of quorn and at the usual price of £1.99 per pack a saving of nearly £1 is not to be sneezed at!!

Oh yes and there own 'Value biological washing Powder' 3kg is only £1.64
I have used it for a month now amd haven't really noticed a difference, although I do spray any serious stains with a stain remover!

Instead of stain remover & fabric conditioner we use white vinegar & a tablespoon or soda in the wash, we also rub the collars of white shirts with a cheep shampoo...

nope not atall, I have used white vinegar for yonks and it also helps prevent horrible limescale build up in washers drawers, milk is fab at getting out blood stains too

I,,ve started using Soap-nuts. I was very sceptical, but they do seem to work.No need for fabric conditioner either.

Not at all, but it also takes out the residue of the detergent & makes towels more absorbant & softer...

Over the last couple of weeks Ive been changing my bank so money is very up in the air, I have been taking my allowance for the week out in cash rather than using my debit card and it has made me alot more aware of what I am actually spending....

this is a very good idea, I used to do it, but have gone back to the plastic card, but it definately worked when I did it!
