    Not bad so far :T DH's Christmas present was on Black Friday deal and so I saved £26 :T :T I have added a load of new stuff to do as well though.

    I'm back on Royal Mail posting panel again so received some stamps and a presentation set today :T Good timing for Christmas cards.

    I had a bit of a panic earlier as the heating didn't seem to be working. Quick change of the thermostat batteries and all seems to be ok again :T

    I found a parcel in the porch which has presumably been dropped through the window and fallen out of sight. It was dated a week ago :mad: I've complained before about them doing that as we have plants on the windowsill. Good job it wasn't an ebay parcel or something, or I'd have been claiming INR! It was actually something to test so I wasn't expecting it, but it's a bonus :T

    Thank you, I've got so much to add too, but I keep forgetting!

    Not bad so far :T :T DH looked at my car and fixed the issues. I've ordered some shoes, paid the Council tax for the rest of the year, so no need to worry until April now :D. I did the quotes for my car insurance, realised my existing provider was cheapest, phoned them up and managed to get a £25 amazon voucher for renewing with them, so didn't manage to get a discount but a nice freebie instead :T I've also paid upfront so saved money that way too.
    I've found the bookcases I want, but not ordered them yet. Will try and raise some funds towards them first. It should save a lot of space though.

    Finally reached £5 cashout on a survey site so have redeemed for an amazon voucher. I've also reached £12 cashout on another site which will come through as cash.

    Little jwil and little miss went to see Father Christmas yesterday so they were happy. Also ordered our turkey joint at the same time so that's another thing sorted.

    Smashing it out of the park! That's fantastic... I have bought next year's diary. That's as organised as I got. But I've ordered it too small. Haha.
    I know what'll get your eBay done: when your clutter is gone you'll clean in half the time!
