debtfreesomeday

Morning everyone from sunny south wales xx

Morning not got off to a good start - was planning another NSD but had to drop car in garage for repairs under warranty and courtesy car had no petrol in it when I picked it up, complained to the spotty kid behind the desk to no avail, so I had to put £7 in it at the first garage I passed! :mad:

Deep breaths...

Ok - so, apart from that little glitch, today I plan to:

• Check online banking/quidco/surveys
• Do a few online comps
• Brought in brekkie and lunch to work (finally made the veggie soup last night after 3 days of meaning to!) :j
• Storecupboard dinner (prob more soup!) for dinner - OH away so meal for 1 tonight.
• Might use gym on free membership deal
• Update budget sheets (to include £7 petrol :mad:)
• Washing drying on line


• Oh, and drive up and down the motorway a few times to make sure I give courtesy car back with absolutely no petrol in it tonight:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

no Spam.jam, I'm just not listing things, despite photographing them despite posting on here that I WILL list things.

I have had a few troubles with selling, but not enough to stop me yet, just niggly things, like dishonest buyers, argumentative buyers and buyers who give me low feedback on p&p when I'd miscalculated them and it cost more to post than I'd charged them for p&p
Oh, and the fees :mad:

ahh yes, the fees. have you tried ebid? im going to list everything iv got because ebay have stopped me listing my nice things like chanel etc, i dont mind getting a little less on ebid because they dont charge unless you sell and its only 5% EDIT 3% OR 2% FOR SELLER+, seems much better

and thanks fayjmck, iv put my first ever cold wash on now, never even used the cycle before, thanks for the tip ;-)

Hello everyone else, good to see you

Have discovered my horse doesn't give a monkeys about money saving!
Went riding last night, had a great time charging round the m!nage, both of us thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Fed him his dinner and prepared to take him to his field. Bearing in mind it’s very dark at 8 in the evening and the track and field are very muddy, I needed to change my riding boots to wellies. I had parked the car by the fence, the other side of which is a small drop to a stream. Rather than change my boots and then go and get himself, I bought him over to the car. I have, by now, got my wellies out and am in my socks, he’s nosying about, seeing if I’ve secreted polos in any part of the car or my wellies!!!!.... On finding my welly boot empty of polos he threw it over the fence and into the darkness. No thought about how much it would cost for new boots!

You cannot see a black boot in the dark…:rotfl:

I now have to clean my leather riding boots which are covered and filled with mud and beg someone to have a look for my missing boot today.
