The ultimate incentive to get debt free, can I do it by New Years?

It's part of hotel chocolat, every month they send you a box of new chocs, you can review them to get entry into a prize draw, or just enjoy scoffing them! If you try it out at the moment you can get £5 cashback with various cashback companies, making the introductory box just £4.95 which is a bargain in my eyes. You can choose to have the mixed box, or the dark chocs box delivered each month. Some really staggeringly yummy recipies each month, but if you're really picky it's best to just get the little boxes of 6 from their shop, as you find you get a lot of nuts or alcohol ones in winter, and then more fruity or white choccie ones in summer.
My ebay items are up to £94, very happy. None of them finish for at least 4 days either! Just realised the time, I wanted to have all 30 listings done by the time OH got in at 4.30-5ish and called me.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Lol just get the one introductory one Cinny for a £5, little treat, and you can pretend its money saving because of the cashback!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Well, if it's technically money saving, which is course what I'm all about, then I suppose I must, for the good of money saving. Not for me at all, nu-uh. Not a chance.
Covered my gluttony tracks enough now I think, off I go to figure it out!0 -
Ooh, ooh I am eating Hotel Chocolat chocolates too. I got a Christmas box for £4 instead of £21. Delicious....
Dinah I've just had a look at the Boots thread and they are up in arms! I must admit that I have taken advantage of some Boots offers before(mostly getting free items when they have the £5 off No7 vouchers out) but have always found the thread a bit militant and cliquey! I've pointed out before that Boots do not have to give them the glitches they find but it doesn't go down too well. Popped into my local one today, between mystery shops and got a few good bargain including 8 little photo albums @ 36p each! Best not mention that on the Boots thread, but as OH is a keen amateur photographer they will come in handy.
Really need to get back into selling on eBay rather than buying on there- not been good this week!:DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator0 -
Yeah I just noticed the £5 cashback on quidco but when I click it says page not available. It's on my to do list though so I won't forget! Really want to write a couple of reviews tonight if I can, I suggested about 5 things and they've all been accepted and I haven't done one review for them, I'll be getting booted off!Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0

Same problem with it on quidco for me too, tete. On my to do list aswell! Not much else though, just 1 review on dooyoo to reach the 10,000 point mark and then 36 more reviews on STP to reach payout point although I'll aim for 50. Looks like another night shut up in my room with the cats again! I'll allow myself 30 minute break, mainly to watch eastenders.
Going to go to my local boots tomorrow after work and have a nosey, it's payday after all (saying that every friday is) see if I can get any cheap soap and glory or something!0 -
Ooh i would like to join the chocolate tasting club!!Biggest Loser Weight Loss: 13 / 20 lb0

I'm doing my ebay items now, OH is late calling, getting his dads car sorted must be taking longer than hoped. I should be doing more STP, only about halfway to my target for the day, but I'm watching Jeeves & Wooster instead!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Afternoon everyone
Just been stalking (as I do) and am now drooling about the chocolate tasting - that would be my dream job :rotfl: Good job Hotel Chocolat have a lot of choclates with nuts in (which I'm allergic to) or I'd have a hard time trying to resist........
Dinah, I haven't read the Boots board but I know what you mean about some of the people. I started a thread as I needed some advice about something and the first response slated me for the font I'd used (but didn't offer any advice) and it continued from there! I was too scared to go back to look after a while :eek: I'll just stick with reading threads like yours where you can benefit from other peoples experience (got dooyoo and TAB scratchcards from your thread) but aren't thrown to the lions!
Hope you feel better soon and well done on everything you're achieving - even when you're sick!!Let's start again (really need a kick up the bum now) :wall:Virgin CC £9793.710 -
I like it in here, it's all chocolate and books and no lions. Mmmmm.
