What was the last thing you got for free?

I got £30 worth of Shell petrol vouchers.a couple of months ago on some promotional thingy they were doing at the time called Lucky Pump Day or some such nonsense.

It turned out if you used a certain lucky pump at a certain time, you won. It came in very handy tbh as I was skint and waiting for payday.

I never knew they were Shell soup bowls!
Way back in the early 90s, my Italian mother in law gave us a fuckload of them, she found them at a car boot sale.

I used to make minestrone in them

All the things

The thing is, you end up paying for it sooner or later.

I got a fancy Huawei for free off mates back in July, and it saved my arse for work back then (needed Satnav).

Then had to turn down work to dogsit for them for free in September.

Swings and roundabouts, like.

That said, I do get lots of food for free at uni. "Food sharing", it's wonderful.

Quite a lot, I imagine.

Think of a number and double it.
Then I'll tell you what percentage it is of the figure I might expect it would cost you

(I can ask around if you like ... )

So anyway, today's entry is:
Three quarters of a ball of what appears to taste like smoked paprika and chilli cheese.

Went to a mate's staying-sober party and nobody particularly liked it except me. So I agreed to take it and figured I would buy some nice cream crackers or something to put it on.

But I forgot about it and left it in the car overnight ... *sigh*

Pair of super stretchy jeans, courtesy of Tesco!
I have them to test/trial. They are pretty comfy actually, much better than the pvc dress I got from them a couple of years ago.

Triple whammy,

I won some mailing list competition for a free meal for two and a bottle of wine last wednesday.

The next day I got a free coffee from Pret because the guy forgot to ring it though, I even pointed out to him that it was too cheap for what I had purchased, he then said oh I forgot the coffee never mind have it for free.

Then today I got sent a contact/wireless charging hub thingy for the iphone X from some supplier at work as a thank you.

Lets hope this week continues on the same vein..

You fucking piece of shit.

"If we're not 10% cheaper than Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, or Waitrose on your comparable grocery shop we'll give you the difference. Guaranteed! It's as simple as that!"

Enter the barcode number from a receipt on the website, then print the voucher and keep it with the receipt to spend next time I'm there,

A fine from the NHS to the tune of £100. I forgot my wallet for a prescription and ticked that I had a prepay certificate (this was 4 months back). Got letter saying "Why u tick free box when u no get free" £100 fine.

In Wales and Scotland prescriptions are free. True that.

Ikea Deluxe hotdog.

We went in for some bits and bobs, and were hungry at the end. I wanted a Hot Dog, and the mrs wanted some chips. The bloke serving us struggled to understand that one hotdog and one fries didn't mean three hotdogs and two fries. Once we'd sorted it and paid for what we'd ordered, the woman serving with him had set up two large hotdogs and a chips, and couldn't be arsed to put one back. Bonus.

Really nice, as well
