🎉 Our bank holiday special edition
Dear Cheapskater,
We’re back with another bank holiday special 🥳!
There are SO many incredible free events happening over the next few days, from a festival of Caribbean culture to a day of free crazy golf at Swingers City. Whatever you end up doing this long weekend, we hope you have a great one!
Congrats to our reader Naomi S, who won a whopping £100 food and drinks tab to spend at Big Penny Social in our Monday newsletter (we’re not jealous at all…). Scroll down for another fab & free-to-enter competition!
We’ll be back in your inbox on Tuesday 27th,
Kate and Georgia x
