Lol SS ... I actually did have a vip slot yesterday but there was nothing there I wanted at all this time so didn't spend anything :j :j
Have just got back from tescos having spent 40 quid :rolleyes: think I might revise my food budget a bit soon as I'm struggling to keep to £150 a month, and I tend not to buy things like fruit so I can stay in budget which seems a bit daft
Just having lunch (cheese roll, salad and a belgian bun), then am off to see if I can find a quick matched bet for today.

I have finally done it - I have finally got my matched betting act together.......
I have placed a qualifer on Northern Ireland/Poland......., although freebie isn't credited for 72 hours after my bet settles, so won't be able to report a profit for a few days!
But at least I have made a start again - now I have to work out which are the easy bookies to do......Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -

Thanks, I just need to read through and find the ones I have not done before - I did all the nice easy ones when I first set out, so I need to make sure I have my head screwed on when looking at the more fiddly ones.
Having said that, I think the one I have done today is an easy one, so maybe it is just a case of keeping my eyes open!
I could certainly do with the money, that is for sure!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -
My sister and I have decided to do a car boot sale tomorrow morning, I've spent the last hour sorting stuff out and loading up the car, I'm really not expecting to make more than a tenner as I only have complete carp to sell, anything half decent has gone on ebay, but it may hopefully clear a bit more space in the garage and will get us some fresh air
I will scoot around indoors and look for some more bits tonight once ds is in bed.

Am finally back from the car boot, it all went fine and I made £26.00 after the entrance fee so was very pleased with that, but more importantly I cleared loads of the bulkier items so the car was almost half empty on the way back :T :T However, as ds had the radio on and the boot was open (so the light stayed on) when we came to leave I had a totally flat battery
Luckily a nice guy with a van had some jumpleads and got me going again pretty quick but it meant I've had to drive round for ages charging up the battery :rolleyes:
Anyway, all stuff is safely back in the garage now, pennies are counted and added to the £1k challenge potand I'm off for a bath now as I feel really grubby
