Default money saving tips

Anyone got any money saving tips to help with the immigration fund.
I have one to start off with.

1. Print off all PBs threads and posts on a daily Basis. It would be too big a job to do weekly.
2. Fold the pages across the centre, and cut along the fold with a sharp knife.
3. Place the sheets of paper in to piles no more than 50 sheets per pile.
4. With a darning needle make a hole through the top left hand corner of the sheets.
5. Thread about 3 inches of string through the hole and
tie loosly.
6. Hammer a 2 inch nail in the toilet wall and hang the sheets from the nail.
7. Use the sheets to wipe your bum.

There is usually enough to keep a family of 15 supplied on a daily basis.
Saving around £3.75 per week.

Laughed so much the boss came over to see what I was reading and nearly discovered how I spend my time these days! Ooops!! Worth it though! Must remember to print them all off while at work too, then I don't even have to pay for the paper!

Go back to saying nothing DragUp, you can then fool people into thinking you are intelligent - the illusion is spoilt once you post.

I have a money saving tip for everyone.

Porkchops are ten a penny here, especially if you can take chewing on the thicker cuts or pieces of scrag like this one.

You may know loads about being a loser but little of Australia , just let this sink in I am paid far more that you ever will be here and I get time to rip the piss out Pom refugees , if other informed posters wish to follow my example its no problem except to the deluded like yourself.
Happy hour calls will think of you not.

It is hard to think of new material isn't it son? You rely on repetition to beat us into submission?

You are this "PC gone mad" that everyone keeps on about these days?
