  • Hi GR :wave: nice to see you. I am being firly careful I promise. The lists are spread and only done as and whem. I dont beat myself up if it doesnt get done. Even one thing is a start.

    :wave: ISOM your are probably right I must has a spending frenzy waiting to pop out. Especially as this time of year is when I have the most "spare" money. I must keep telling myself do nothing until paysay then budget and clear cc first before anything. Also chant I DO NOT NEED A NEW COOKER OR TV!!

    Good day today, finished early and have tomorrow in the office to finish off and prep for next week visits.

    NSD so far and £10 argos voucher due from valued opinions. 18 more points needed to claim £20 vouchers from pigs back. Mothers day pressies sorted just need cards and already have something nice for Mums birthday in April. It all helps..

    Of to read everyones diaries :bye:

  • Thanks Beanielou

    I was just thinking about whether the FW had got through safely.

    Just found a 30 point sign up on pigsback so tomorrow I should be able to draw down the vouchers :j .

    Better log off and start dinner now DD1 has cleared up her fairy cake mess.

  • It has gone downhill recentely I feel this will be the last voucher because I dont spend money just the 5p clicks (which are almost non existant) and partner site sign ups (which I think I must have done all by now). Took ages to get the last £3.

  • Good luck for the bonus - have a good weekend and Mothers Day in the meantime.
  • OH at golf today so I have decided to work on Monday instead. Been into town to bank some cheques, draw cash and shop at the new poundland (which is great BTW). Plan to spend the rest of teh day watching tv, snoozing and maybe some housework.

    Hope you all well and nice to hear from you Angela.

  • Todays spends:

    £10 poundland
    £10 matalan for control pants - went there to get the £2.90 parking fee free :eek: I knew it was high at £2.50 and I only had £2.70 cash.

    Thata all today although I owe a neighbour a £1 ish for buying some bread last night.

    Hoping OH remembers the extra £20 he borrowed on Wed so should have £140 due from him and £25 ish from his friend for golf shoes. Im not letting him get away with it becasue I let him off £20 two weeks ago.

    Other than a bit of washing up I stuck to my list of snoozing and watching TV so a good day. Four days next week but TBH Monday should be fairly easy going and the two visits are ones I have done before which helps alot.
