Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Ah, this is the thread I need! To be able to afford any "treats" this year, we either need more income (which ain't gonna happen) or make savings on our already tight household budget. My life seems to revolve around my budget spreadsheet!

Good news when I got home tonight. We got our power meters read for the first time in ages. The months spent living with the thermostat turned down, and with hardly any lights on has paid off; direct debit has been cut by £20 a month. :-)

Two words - eBay. Ok one word but if I say two, it's like you're getting more for less ;-)

Actually I do have some stuff to put on ebay, I just need to find the time to take photos and write descriptions. I also have a lack of post office issue.

Glasses my binz are knackered beyond belief, they truely have a scatch coating now. 'cos I blind as a bat I get the stupidly expensive thin lenses which always mean the 2 for £69 offers are don't work for me. Boots want £190 for the ultra thin lenses (I went there as you can download a voucher to get your sight test for a tenner with no onligation to buy their gogs) So they are out of the prefered supplier slot. Spec savers do the lenses for £90 which is handy, but I was diected toward 'glasses direct' who look like I can get a similar price to specsavers with the UV coating thrown on. Anyone used them before or am I the guniea pig here?
