Did you hear the debate started by Wayne Rooney and his wife Coleen using a 50% off voucher in one of their local restaurants? The bill came to £13.90 after discount and got all sorts of people talking about whether using vouchers was the right thing to do if you can afford to pay full-price.
Surely we are all equally entitled to benefit from discounts offered by a restaurant, shop or otherwise. Do celebrities get this much attention when they emerge with bags and bags at the sales? Or is it that they took the time to cut a coupon out of a paper to save themselves £14 which Wayne probably earns in a few minutes on the pitch? Regardless, perhaps we should be thankful that in these days of massive credit card debt, irresponsible spending and interest free credit, we have a high profile young couple setting an example of how to be smart with money. And what is it we were all told about looking after the pennies...?
