  • decided that however much i get from quidco this month i'm going to spend it on me- i really need some new clothes, all ive bought in the last year were 3 vest tops from primark-starting to look like a bag lady lmao-prob wont get anything this month now :rolleyes:
    really need some new trainers and some new black trousers for work and a nice animal hoodie would be good as well ;-)
  • Go for it, MM. You'll be debt free soon so you can afford to :beer: I hope the dentist is as pain & anxiety-free as possible for you x

    I'm due £40-ish from Quidco next month, then won't be getting any cashback until around xmas as I've been lazy recently and haven't done much :o

    MM I've been thinking the same about clothes which is why I bought myself a new coat yesterday. I never spend on me and would rather spend on the kids, and as a result I'm looking terrible lol

    Morning all

    Hope everyone is ok? Im feeling better today which is good. Got a bit bored so did some cleaning, and im going to attempt some lunch toay... wish me luck!

    Good luck at the Dentist today MM... dodgy hug for you: :grouphug:

    I have just changed the date for my rent to come out. It used to come out on 25/26/27 of each month. Varying due to what day it fell on etc. I dont get paid in this job until 30th of every month, so it was getting a bit confusing.

    Now it should come out on 15th of each month, will be better. I need to make a payment on 30th this month, and then the first rent payment will be 15 November, if all goes well i should have a bit of extra ££ to throw at my debt :D Not counting my chickens just yet though! :rotfl:

    Anyhoo... off to russle up something to eat.

    xxxx
    Debt: just my mortgage :D

    Hi all,

    Hope all is good! Im feeling really poo today my nephew has just started school his 4. His friend has decided he doesnt like him anymore and keeps hitting and bitting my nephew! So my brother told him to play with his other friends and now the horrible boy has told my nephews other friends not to play with him esle he will hit them too! Now my poor nephew keeps coming home in tears coz none of his friends will play with him and his on his own in the playground at break time. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: I feel so angry! I know the bully is only a 4 year old too, but my nephew is the sweetest of little boys. My SIL is going up the school again today to sort it out.

    And i have my saving and bankings with Halifax and now its all over the news how there in trouble.:confused:

    Lilmiss, Just to let you know, im also a member of snapfish but it doesnt matter. As long as your not already resigtered with Jessops. Ive just checked my CBK account and the £4 has tracked already! Dont do it with Quidco though as they wont give you the cashback just for getting the free photos. :)

    Thanks MM, i feel so sad for him :(
