Why do i keep doing this (in debt again) diary

miemie

Hi Rags IPSOS is a survey site they award you points for surveys and you exchange for vouchers, i get quite a few from them and the points rack up quite quick, I joined through My Shopping rewards and got cash back for joining notice they are still on there so you could probably join.

I don't think there are many freebies around at the moment they have deffinatly (sp) slowed down.

Todays to do list

Make lasagne
clean out bunny
tidy playroom:eek:
get all washing done
sweep mop floors downstairs
ring grandma.

Day 14

I think i have mid month blues, was really disappointed when i got in from work to find no bills, no vouchers, no freebies, just junk mail, really want to get on and pay some more off debt.

Have had a little thought and might use some of Tax credits money that goes into kiddie account, this pays for clothes, shoes, trips, school dinners etc, hubby also adds to it.

Might hunt some bits out to put on ebay, but it does seem slow on there at the moment, maybe a car boot would be a better idea.

So far it has been a no spend day, as i went straight to work this morning and then straight home and made lunch instead of popping into bakery.

Supposed to be having soup tonight and homemade bread, but feeling really lazy and feel like eating fatty stodge, so might make egg and chips instead.

Going to go into Town tommorrow and go to M&S will treat me to a Meal deal as i have some vouchers and if i don't treat me know and again i will fall off the wagon, might save the wine for the weekend though. I must not enter boots because i know i will end up buying loads in the sale if i do and i really don't need anything.

take care miemie

Day 15

2 bills arrived this morning Great Universal Balance of £70, and M&S Balance £694.50p so interest has been added, also got so Tesco healthy living vouchers mostly off fruit and veg but will use. She magazine this was bought as a subscription for me off my sister for my birthday no freebies in it this month though.

Went into Town this morning paid £20 cheque into bank and will pay off Next account when it clears, went to M&S and spent £20 gift voucher i had on A £10 meal deal yummy roast chicken, this will feed 4 of us on Saturday and then left overs will probably use for a pie on Sunday and will make soup from the carcuss, also got veggies to roast,profiteroles will eat thes tonight and a bottle of cava, also got washing up liquid and fabric softner as they were BOGOF, chetsnut stuffing to go with the chicken and meat loaf, total cost should have been £30.75, balance was £18.97:D and paid with vouchers i got for doing surveys:j

Went to Argos and got a New Fryer and a Bag for Next week total cost £27.38, but used £20 Argos voucher so only paid £7.38 towards it. Was very good and did'nt go into Boots and resisted a pair of really nice shoes that were in the sale at £10 told myself these are a want not a need.

Needed veggies,bread, sandwich meat, cooking oil, yoghurts and fruit and ended up spending £17 in Sainsbury's had to use some money from what i had saved for going away next week:mad: , but get paid next Friday so will replace it then.

Also used £10 from weekend away money to pay G U:mad: .

Oh and i owe my little girl 50p as i only had £1 in my purse and needed parking money (such a bad mummy).

Bank account £9.00
purse 0p

Need to put petrol in the Car and pay Milkman tommorrow £10 as pay it fortnightly, oh dear.

And as i don't get paid until Next friday it means we will have to live out of the cupboards untill then, but as i'm away next weekend i won't be able to go shopping until the monday. so will do an online shop to be delivered on the saturday (must remember to tell hubby).

Will have to take out another £20 out of weekend away money to pay milkman and put petrol in car, and replace next Friday out of wages.

So next Friday need to rake £50 out of wages and add to weekend money.

Here i was thinking i was doing so well and and today its just gone a bit wrong:o .

Think i have rambled on a bit, take care miemie
