  • Evening all - a late one from me today as I haven't been at work. Managed to get lots done and me and OH have also been paid so a good day all round!

    I have:
    * Paid the normal monthly £300 off my credit card plus extra £30 made on Amazon
    * Cashed in £10 of lightspeed points to paypal
    * Ordered local delivery fruit & veg box from said paypal funds (cheaper & lasts longer than supermarket veg!)
    * Ordered online 'non fruit & veg' shopping from ASDA with free delivery code from this site (also means I don't get tempted by anything in-store!)
    * Written list of meat for the next month to buy from local market at weekend (again, it's cheaper and of much better quality!)
    * Checked bank balance & deposited funds into various 'pots' online for annual bills, savings and 'the new sofa fund'.
    * Checked for surveys - none
    * Cancelled experian credit membership after getting quidco sign up cashback
    * 2 loads of washing on eco setting and line dry
    * Sold 2 more books on Amazon so packaged them up for posting tomorrow
    * Typed out/worked out budget sheet for month
    * listed a few more book on Amazon - got the bug now!
    * Had a storecupboard breakfast, lunch & dinner and 3 more of the same tomorrow!
    * Updated signature below!

    Have a great weekend everyone xx

  • Everybody seems to have had a productive day. Hope you are OK andan.
    How many pairs of sparkly socks do you have sophiesmum? Have you found a magic sock drawer ( perhaps complete with elf - where is loki?) :rotfl:
    Not done much DFW all week let alone today. Am on leave next week so am going to reorganise myself and get back on track. Haven't quite slipped off yet but am not really on top form DFW wise - could do better!
