I think I need to rejoin this thread as have been over-spending a little recently. Had my first NSD of the month today. Have done washing on 30 degrees, have clothes drying all over the house - was too lazy to put in on the line!

I think I now have all but 4 Xmas presents sorted so nearly there....

Will try and check on-line banking later
Need to re-do CV as job could be at risk very shortly...

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Since my earlier post, I've been digging into my Egg credit card records and counting up the charges which have accrued on this account. Think I'll be writing to them about these!
Also, similar with my Natwest bank account. I've had it for 2 years and had £180 worth of charges on it since (which is good going by my standards!).

So, trying to be constructive and look at what I can do about these.

Well done Mbaz. :T
Welcome Mrsaudus.

Evening all,

My dfw things for today;

• Filled up a small bottle with water before I went out
• Sister cut my DH hair
• Used around £5.50 in money off coupons
• Brought a dress for a 1 – 1 ½ year old in Asda for 50p (originally £6) to put away for a present
• Reorganised a couple of drawers and found a couple of items I had brought for my present stash
• Cut out a 50p coupon from my magazine
• DH made mashed potatoes with some of the reduced bag of potatoes I got for 30p on Friday
• Found 6p
• Washing done at 30deg and line dried outside taking advantage of dry weather

That’s all I can think of

Oh I think I had a NSD by accident - jolly good, been looking online for things to do with kids over hols, flights are ridiculus so we might just stay at home and potter about xx (good moneysaving??) prob more down to lack of ideas than anything else - not written much either, whoops not such a great day for me after all xx

Poor you sophiesmum xx

Have done CV and sent it off to loads of agencies - I don't think there is a bigger DFW action than that if it safeguards future income.

Bye hopefully see you tomorrow!
