Good morning everyone
Today I will also stay at home, due to the miserable weather and loads of rain.
I will have a NSD, catch up telly viewing, do some embroidery and make food from my storecupboard, as well as cooking for next week.
Cheers
Casper

Wowsers, some of these lists put me to shame. The weather is filthy here, so primarily a day in is called for I think. Still suffering a little with a cold so a duvet day would suit me fine, but as we are dogsitting I feel I should make the effort and give her a walk.
-Do some eBaying- have done nothing since our holiday and need to get back in the swing of it.
-Roast for tea using ingredients already in.
-Keep the heating off- DH put it on when I was at work yesterday but I really don't think it's cold enough yet to warrant it.
-Read the papers online to save buying one.
That's it for today as I'm feeling lazy.:DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator

Hi katrss - just click the 'thanks ' button at the bottom right of each individual post
Hi to everyone who's posted and those yet to appear.
Day here can't quite make up it's mind weather wise.
- dinner in ready for sunday lunch - yum
- bread in bm
- yoghurt likewise
- have checked bank etc - hate dd's when they fall due on Sunday but have checked online and they'll be taken tomorrow
- found 50p in washing basket - finders keepers
- done more washing and more to come unfortunately (rugby today)
- have to write to bank about endowment and keep checking bl**ming remortgage, have aged 30 years with this one
- will make rock cakes for packed lunches this week ( probably won't last beyond today with the gannets in this house)
Getting there...slowly!
GC : must do better
NSD: very rare
No matter how slow I go I am lapping everyone on the couch.0 -
My first post in a chat thread here!
Today I will be sorting my finances in the following ways...
1. Searching for the best deals on my overdraft, loan and credit cards (may be dificult as I think my credit may be poor).
2. Roast a chicken, which I can then turn into multiple meals for the week - I have now banned myself from taking my wallet to work - that alone should save me plenty!
3. Explore options for making money online (the threads posted are great, but I can't find the tips as they are so big!)
4. Budget plan, and see the obvious areas I can cut back on.
I only joined this forum last night, but already am feeling inspired by the stories and tips on here! Next year I may try and clear ALL of my debt in a year!Debt at LBM - £7992.46

I am interested in this 'mystery shopping' thing. Can anyone please elaborate on it? It seem's a few members here are using it to make money, and I want to do it too!
Thanks
