Just spent 255.00 on next sale :eek: :eek: ... but I reckon lots will go back and should result in about 100.00 or less I ordered 5 pairs of jeans for me as last time they were all such random sizes I didn't want to chance it this time round,so have ordered several and will see whats what when they arrive. Also ordered a lovely bag reduced from 70.00 to 20.00, and a pink leather holdall for 20.00, as I don't have any kind of bag to put stuff in when I go away, now I just need somewhere to go :rolleyes:

Okay, I've emailed Wilkos and asked for a refund for the stuff I ordered, it will be too late for xmas by the time I can collect it, even though they still haven't said it is there yet :rolleyes:

I've gone through the banka accounts and its quite scary ...I'd forgotten the cheques haven't gone yet for afterschool club and breakfast club, so its not looking too healthy I'vefigured out whats still to go / come in, what still needs buying for xmas etc, and overall I reckon I've got about 80 quid left over, but this will need to cover the rest of the month for food, petrol, new years eve, sale shopping with a friend at the weekend etc

Plan of action as I'm clearly going to go over this month, I've earned another 4.80 on aqa tonight, making that up to 45.00 for the month. I will try and do another 5.00 tomorrow and then anything else I make on there this month can be spent on whatever I like this month

Checked the banking this morning and another 20.00 has gone out that I'd forgotten about :mad: , but, a direct debit for 44.00 had already gone that I had't realised, so all in all I'm up 24.00 :beer:

Also Wilkos have replied and have refunded me my 7.00 already :beer:

I've been and bought ds bike, the shop didn't have time to put it together so I spent a *fun* :rolleyes: two hours putting it together while ds was at a friends playing I've also done the guinea pis and done yet more housework but it doesn't seem to end :rolleyes:

I've been thinking roll on January too....:rotfl:
I'm all ready to be super-organised, ready to overpay on my loan. Just seen on my inetrnet banking that my new current basic account has been ok'd, so I am going to be able to separate money and hopefully that'll help me see what's extra each month.
I'm off early to bedd too - the kids have more energy than me, XMas night I'll be asleep on the sofa at 10 I think:o
