I love making soup - especially tomato and chicken soup (that's tomato soup and chicken soup btw, not tomato&chicken, although that might work). If we had a bigger freezer in this place it would probably just be full of things of soup and sauce.
As for the challenge today, I've got 2 ms to do for a total of £9 and lots of liver damage (I'll just blame RE if my doctor tells me off for binge drinking) and have 2 amazon sales for £18 profit, so that's another £27 for the pot.Oct Challenges: Make £5 a day - £5.18/£155 Grocery Challenge - £0/£2000 -
Hope surgery goes well Pam!
Mmmhh soup, I LOVE soup in any form, you've actually reminded me I've got homemade minestrone in individual portions in the freezer, yum! Other personal favourites to make are potato, rice and carrot & corriander (3 seperate soups though!)
Anyways, I'm currently at 65pI've got 2 items ending on ebay today, put them on 10 day instead of 7 day by mistake, so although I've got watchers I don't have high hopes of them going today.

Pam, good luck with the op!
We have a similar thing and when I had a minor op 2 years ago I was tempted to feign a relapse for more money!!!
Noggin, you've got us all thinking about soup now!
My best one is cauliflower cheese soup & I've got a cauli about to go off & I'll not be usng it tonight... so off to find my recipe!
As for making money £2.30 saved on fuel with voucher, used vouchers in shop worth £1.25, found cheque for £10.83... dividend from shares... how bad is that that I didn't pay it in???
Will add sig later... off to make soup!!

Oh my goodness, i am so very very greatfull,
A lovely MSE member gave me LOADS of information about Quidco - before i never understood it propery (despite trying very hard) but ive sat here for the last hour, read their message about 50 times and checked all the links.
And so far ive got £33.24 tracked, £1.90 of that is validated - now with Quidco is it best only to count it once its been validated or when its been paid?????
I am so chuffed, oh - £30 was from Betfair sign up and although it cost me £10 ive won £8.21 on black jack and a lucky bet, if Lewis Hamilton gets a podium tomorrow then ill have £10.47 so thats a whole 47p proift (providing i can get them to pay out)
Im not counting any of this in my sig as - like i said - not sure it i need to count it when its validated or paid but if someone can advise ill add it in a jiffy0 -
hey puzzled. it's up to you when you want to add quidco totals. some add it once its validated others when it pays out. i add it when it pays out as i'm easily confused and tend to forget what i've added and what i havent so do whats best for you luv and well done on the total!0
