Morning folks

Have searched for this thread, not been able to find it. I know hypno is away on holiday, so in her absence, here we go!

Today I:

* am going to lunch with some friends at Bella Pasta - using my clubcard deal vouchers
* taking some videos and clothes to a charity shop (clearing the clutter)
* got a long list of things I need to do which will stop me from spending more!
* might go to the cinema and use my cinema card
* do the CTs & comps

Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    Today,
    my daughter and I are going to put together a wardrobe for Grandaughters room. Its 3rd hand and in lots of pieces as previous owner had it destined for the skip.Should be an interesting day as we have no experience and only one screwdriver!!! Then we are going to sort out Grandaughters clothes/toys ready to do a car boot on Sunday.
    Away with the fairies.... Back soon

    Morning all: Today I'm checking online banking, doing piggy clicks and eBaying and freecycling a load more stuff. Would be more inclined to freecycle stuff if people used the occasional "please" in their emails!!
    Overpay!

    TBH I'm sick of Freecycle. :mad: My local group throws out ANY emails that are even slightly wrong from their 'format' - I've missed loads of offers for a friends flat because of it - and I get on for 80 emails a day - too much if I'm away for a few days! I'll just advertise in the local paper FOC instead - adverts listed free if under £50.

    I have spent money on a newspaper (tut tut) but its to look for a new job...

    Otherwise I avoided going to the garden centre to look for new plants for the garden ( I may buy some online using a voucher I have been sent).

    I'm also going to persuade daughter to go for a run today rather than me spending £5.65 on going to the gym...
