Right well day 3!

I didn't do much money saving yesterday as i went xmas shopping but i have all but 2 presents now so i'm pleased.

Today i paid off another £319.25 of my debts this morning so i am feeling good:T

i have a job interview for a perm job next week which i'm very excited about - it would be so nice to have the security finally after a year and i can manage my money much better because its guarenteed every week and its less hours for the same money which would be sooo nice at the moment i'm doing silly hours to make up for the loss in salary.

I'm going to see a friend this weekend so it wont be very money saving this weekend but I haven't seen her since July! i bought her some bargins in Asda for a xmas present, 3 nail varnishes at a £1 each, 4 diamonte hair clips at £1 and 2 Tickled Pink lip glosses at a £1 and 80p goes to breast cancer charity :A and i made the gift bag so little pressie for £5 and i did my bit for Charity Mate!

Anyways i better get back to work have a good day everyone

Welcome, determined ~ you've got off to a great start :T

Well done for posting, and you're in the right place for some great advice and support.

Numpty Monkey ~ you made me snort coffee out off my nose with this "........you can always get a hand up or a kick up the butt from the great people on here." :rotfl:

Welcome to MSE - you're doing brilliantly. Love your "low cost - high value" present - and with a donation to charity built in too - that is lovely. Will be cheering you on from here on in!
