I have just signed up to be a mystery diner so I'm hoping to get a few free meals.

Hi there, perhaps I should do that..........although in my house we call them mystery dinners - no-one can ever tell what it is!!!!!!

Do you think we could organise it so we fill a whole restaurant with MSE mystery diners!

Well done on getting all those [STRIKE]votes[/STRIKE] nominations (more than anyone else!) on the Post of the Month thread! Whatever the result, you're our winner! :j :j :j

Hi everyone

I've just come back from a mystery shop at a bingo club. I got £20 worth of spends but I won £10 so that's not bad for going out to have a laugh. My sister won £25 which was good.

I finally called Alliance & Leicester today and I now owe £224 on my loan. I am so determined to pay this off this month. My mum has got her mortgage sorted out now so I won't need to help her out as much.

The mystery shopping is drying up a bit at the moment though. I've only got another 2 lined up at the moment. I'm going to try to sign up with a few more companies to get more work coming in. I have got a meal booked on the 20th at a very nice restaurant for myself and my boyfriend. We get to spend up to £44 for the meal so we can have a really good night out.

I've also got a few more things I can sell in order to get the £234 to pay off the loan so I'm going to get selling ASAP so that I can clear this pesky debt once and for all.

Some other good news is that my sister thinks she is pregnant again. She's showing all of the symptoms she had before with Joshua and she is a week late. She's going to wait another week before she does a test but she has got all of the signs so we are all keeping our fingers crossed for her. If she is pregnant then the baby will be due around the same time that Joshua was born.

I also just wanted to say thank you to everyone who gave me their support during the post of the month of may competition. I was touched by all of the lovely messages that people were leaving for me.

I will keep you all updated on my progress in clearing that loan and on my sister's condition.

Take care everyone

Hi Emily, Good news about your sister. Will keep fingers crossed. If your determination stays as it is, clearing this months debt will be a doddle to you!!
Good Luck Hon!:cheesy: :cheesy:

Hi everyone.

Just when you think things can't possibly get any worse, they do!! My mum's auntie passed away last night. She was very ill and died of the same problems that my dad did so we can see that she is in a better place at the moment. They say that these things come in 3's so hopefully that is it for a very long time and that we only have good news for the rest of the year!!

Nothing has happened with my sister still so we're all still hoping she is pregnant. She is going to do a test on Wednesday if there is still no sign of the painters!! I will keep you all informed and hopefully I will have some good news to share for a change.

I'm still working hard to clear the Alliance & Leicester loan and I am going to hunt around my room later for £200 worth of stuff to sell. Actually, I have got £100 to put towards it already so I don't need that much. I want to try and have it cleared in at least 2 weeks time.

Anyway, I'm off to do my goals for the week as I was slack last week and forgot to do them :rolleyes:

Take care everyone

Hi everyone

Just wanted to post a quick update. I still don't know if my sister is pregnant or not. She is now 12 days late but she is too scared to do a test. We shall have to wait and see I guess, she has said that she will definately do one next week if nothing has happened. It is her husband's 30th birthday next week so it would be lovely if she found out she was in time.

I am on course to clear that Alliance and Leicester loan. I have stuck a load more stuff on Ebay and I'm hoping that I will get over £100 for it and I have already got £100 saved towards it so I am trying really hard to get there.

I have reorganised my debts too so that I am more focused as things got a bit complicated at the beginning of the year. I am now back on track and hope to be debt free by my next birthday.

I am also going to try to get back into my competitions but I need to organise my time a bit better I think so I am going to do like a timetable to juggle work, mystery shopping, AQA, competitions and something that resembles a social life!!! Does anyone else do this? If so have you got any useful systems you can share with me?

Thanks for all of your kind messages once again

Emily xx
