Morning all

Yesterday didn't go to plan!

Have brought packed lunch and will try to buy a small flask at lunchtime so that I can take coffee to college after work. I have 2 flasks but they are both large - ideal for days out but not for sneakily filling up at work!

DInner is preprepared but I still bought a meal at Wetherspoons yesterday rather than waiting until I got home!

which website does everyone use to look for mystery shops?

Scrap my list people, as i have not done it!! I have been very sensible and not money saving at all!! and have called in sick to work as still not well, its now going onto my chest and have cancelled my second job i was due to do later and rescheduled the mystery shops!!

Not happy about losing all that money:mad: but my health should come first:rolleyes:. Feeling a bit better than yesterday and feel that was largely due to me taking everyones advice and having complete rest, so figured if i was going to get better, then i was going to have to rest today as well!!

So my new list:
-Will still be doing two mystery shops, their very easy, plus i still need to get to the bank
-I'll sort out prob with my bank card
-I'll pay a cheque into the bank
-Have managed to reschedule all my shops
-Need to get in touch with another company to reschedule another shop which was due tomorrow which i can't do due to college
-will check online banking
-Deposit money into bookies for my matched bet
-Do some surveys
-Work on website
-I will put money in payment a day pig
-I will write up any mystery shopping reports
-I will go through my emails
-I will look for mytery shops - picked up two!!

So, most of my todays things are just involving me and the computer, as thats about all i can manage!!

mbaz, good luck with taking the landlord to court, weve never had to do this, but no the pain of renting and their unscrupulous ways of keeping the deposit.

Piquant, well done on paying off so much on your visa, and you claim you don't do much each day!! Thats a heafty payment.

bathgatebuyer, sounds like it will be a bit of a tight month for you, but am sure you can make those pounds stretch. Good luck with your OH's job search.x

Thepopster, have you checked the mysterey shopping thread on the up your income forum, they have a list of companies on there. Otherwise i personally regularly check, retail eyes, grassroots and gapbuster.
