You read my mind!  I was hoping this thread would get started!

I got two cardigans for the price of one at Ann Taylor Loft!

An individual cupcake carrier.  We found an ancient Williams-Sonoma gift card that still had money on it, so it was FREEEEE!!

I save money on things from Macy's. Not only do they have great sales but since I have a credit card (I keep it at a minimum),  I am always getting saving coupons in the mail to be used. Great value!

Plus in September they have a great program where you pay $25 which goes to a charity and you get a $15 coupon and for everything that you spend on your credit card until Dec 31st, you get 10% put into an account, it adds up (even if you pay off your card every month). In Feb, I got a nice sized gift card to spend.   :)

Went over to Target tonight to pick up some pantyhose and discovered the brand I wanted was on clearance for $1.24/pair all because the company was changing the style of the boxes!

I got a new Sony Ericsson W595 from TMobile. They quoted me £48 as an upgrade then decided I could have it for nothing!

I recently saved money on this new (for me) plum hair dye that I love.  The box was slightly crushed so it was marked half off the original price!

I am always saving money on great stuff found at charity shops (especially at the one I work at!).  I needed a new pair of sneakers / trainers and found a pair of Aosics (sp?) almost brand new for 5 pounds.

Well, as my tightwad Dad always says, 'You're not saving money when you spend it.'  ;D

Do any Money Saving Blogs exist in the UK? I've been reading sites like Deal Seeking Mom, and Saving Every Day to get great deals and freebies off of in the US, but are there blogs in the UK that do the same thing?

There's Money Saving Expert and Hot UK Deals.
HUKD is excellent, but full of very scary people!
