Have rated 3 of your reviews CAFCGirl, thought I'd better not do too many.

Not sure how many points you get per review but every point helps. When I checked my account I only had 5 very usefuls and 20 usefuls, I'm just not good at writing.

Hope you get to £50 soon.

too_much_debt

How is everyone doing? I've got lots wrapped up, managed to do 4 more this morning when OH took eldest daughters to Sainsbury's, also had a good tidy up and hoover. I've still got all the baby's stuff to wrap and a few more of the others stuff then I've done it all. OH needs to put the two dolls prams together.

I'm getting quite excited now to see the kids faces on Christmas morning, tomorrow I'll give them the Disney Princess stockings I bought for them to leave out for Father Christmas.

Will still be glad once it is all over and can just concentrate on paying off my debts, I'm more determined than ever to get them paid ASAP. My eldest two are off to my parents on Saturday for nearly a week so I'm going to get lots on Turbolister ready for the cheap listing day they normally have after Xmas (fingers crossed they have one this year). I'm also aiming to get rid of all my Ebay Business stock and start over again, will get back into children's character clothing again, also want to do a different spreadsheet. I've still got my Tax Return to do but that's just a case of keying in the figures.

Also got to save up for our trip to Lithuania for my brothers wedding in August, we need to book flights soon, my girls are going to be flower girls although we haven't seen my brother yet so am not supposed to know.

Anyway, enough waffling, I'm bored got nothing I can do til kids go to bed.

I've been naughty. OH bought some chicken pieces earlier when he went to Sainsury's for our dinner (mine and the kids) but I cooked a big dinner yesterday (with veg and roast potatoes). I've been feeling rather bored today and couldn't be bothered to cook the chicken and peel potatoes etc. I thought of Pizza then I thought no, then I thought Pizza, then I thought no, then I called up Pizza Hut website online, then I ordered, then I deleted, then I ordered, then I felt guilty as I didn't want to spend the money but the kids needed something to eat, so I asked them what they wanted and they said Pizza, chicken and potatoes (which is what we normally order as in the past I've got the deal).

Anyway, after lots of deliberation and really not wanting to spend £7.99 on a Pizza I ordered one, gave the guy £9.00 (£1 tip), I've eaten one slice and now feel sick (this happens sometimes now I've had my gall bladder out and I eat anything fatty).

I want my £9 back, I could have paid that off a credit card instead.

I'm glad that I felt guilty and really, really, really didn't want to spend the money on it and it did take a good 10/15 minutes before I went ahead and ordered as the kids go to bed a 7pm.

Hope everyone else is doing better than me today, just glad I didn't do the Sainsbury shop as OH said it came to £180!!!!

too_much_debt

Hi CAFCGirl - thanks I feel so bad (which is good), I begrudged paying that much for food and am determined not to buy fast food any more, I only had one piece of the Pizza as I just didn't fancy it but the kids like it (although DD1 picked the topping off and just ate the base!!!!!!!).

I'm looking forward to 1st Jan as that is when I'm going to knuckle down and stick to essentials and will make sure I have food in that is quick to cook for when I don't feel like cooking a big meal.

By the way - what did you order?

CAFCGirl

well i ordered a quarter pounder cheeseburger and chips and DH has a kebab....

Nov 2011 according to my snowball:rotfl:

What did you have to do to get a Crown? I was just doing a review on Hawaii but got to just under 500 words and thought it was a bit boring and going on a bit so will do one another time (got too much to wrap up at the moment) and do a shorter version, I could have typed about 10,000 words on the place. In fact, it's made me want to go back again (which I aim to do one day with my girls), so my aim once my cards are paid off is to save for Hawaii (that will be the next challenge after the debt is cleared) so think I will be on MSE for a long time to come.

Hope you enjoyed the burger and chips, we had a pizza delivery leaflet earlier that had burgers and chips and stuff like that which I was tempted by but the pizza on it's own was more than the one from Pizza Hut.

Anyway, must go for a while I keep getting distracted.

Oh, forgot to say, I feel a fool, I reviewed the wrong persons review so someone which I thought was you got 3 reviews from me yesterday (I have now reviewed some of yours your one on Debt was excellent).

Bye
