The usual...

Topcashback £2 bonus on £10 Tesco gift card spend and another £40 Tesco gift card from the Everup app, only 4% cashback this week though, but it's still a saving.

And another £50 Tesco Gift Card via Everup because the cashback is now 5.15%, I need to keep an eye on this as it goes up and down like a prositutes knickers and buy when it's a better rate.

He’s a self-described "middle-aged centrist dad", and as he said in his Times interview in August

Are you saving money using the EVERUP app yet? If not go and stand in the naughty corner! I've saved £14.51 in the last month, that's nothing to sniff at.

I tried this. I'm unsure which is better. I think your choice is creamy. The Sharwood kit I think has deeper flavour.

Just done the weekly shop at Morrisons, and noticed they have a 25% off 6 or more bottles of wine deal, and SWMBO’s favourite white wine (Sancerre) was also reduced from £18 to £14 a bottle, so I bought two of those and 4 bottles of red (some of which were reduced as well), ended up with £35.50 off of £86.15’s worth of wine - result!
