Hi guys, couldn't find this until piquant kindly pointed it out to me:rotfl:
My abscence was purely due to the fact that i start work at 8am so have to leave at 7.30 so don't get to post first thing, as i like to leave the special job to sophiesmum:D
Instead i am covered in paint from the little darlings who chose to paint the chair i ended up sitting on.
I will post my proper list later, as me being me, i want to get lots done today and am feeling especially productive, so am off to get cracking. I will be back to update and provide a massive list as per usual!!:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

Afternoon all
WellI didn't have a list as such for today just to do the shopping and read as much on here as I can.( Back to work tomorrow:mad: )
Well I've done the shopping on my own today for the first time in years (OH at work) and went with a list of items and a memory full of tips from all you good people.
So I bought only what we needed for the next week, Sainsbury's own brand where possible, 2 for 1 deals etc etc.
Bill for 2 adults and 1 bin lid for one week £98.02 which is £40 less than normal.There are several items I bought such as big box of washing powder that we wont need to buy again for a few weeks & I've just gone through the reciept and deducted those items and next weeks bill should be well below £70:T
How goods that??

What a talented lot you are! :beer:
Olive Oyl, how incredible to even be able to think about writing a play, let alone actually doing it! I recall you mentioning the play on your 82 day challenge. Most impressed.
KT with an actor, and let's not forget our potential elf, Fay's startling socks and andan's lengthy lists. List envy coming through...
My sparkling is a bit dim at the moment. I mentioned earlier that folks are being made redundant. I have been tasked with writing the report that proves what value my area brings to the organisation and why we are better placed to do it instead of an Indian company. No pressure here at all! Eight jobs and lives depending on how well I can argue a case.... I will probably start this tomorrow, don't feel like it today.
I will be opening a bottle of wine tonight :j
ps mbaz, it's my birthday next week and I'm going to blow £25 all on meTotal debt at October 2008: £67,213.30
Total debt today: £0 - debt and mortgage free 29th November 2013 :T

I am amazed at his memory. I can't even remember a shopping list! (So, thats why I overspend on food...!).
I keep laughing about it, I'm currently dating Jack Nicholson. When BF was in Closer I was dating Jude Law... (It's fun dating an actor!)
