Wendys Spend Less, Make More Diary

I have managed to do another two dooyoo today. Getting back into it again. Will probably have another break after redeeming for this cheque as I need to get on with revising for my exam for work.

We drove back up to London today and managed to somehow find room for all the stuff we brought back up. Managed to get OH to get rid of a few items of clothing from the wardrobe to make room for his new clothes.

I also had a go on the wii fit. I haven't weighed as much as I do now ever so need to lose a few lbs. I also ordered the new pump it up DVD with the last Amazon voucher I had left. I really liked the original one so hopefully I will like this too.

I have decided that I am going to save up Amazon Vouchers now towards a new TV. I am aiming for about £200 but we will see how I do.

Well done on the reviews, i havent got the brain to do any for now! lol

Good luck in saving vouchers for a TV, i bet you will save £200 in no time.

Liking your plans Wendz! The progress towards getting a flat is exciting! I'm sure you'll be debt free in no time

I don't blame you Maria it is hard work sometimes. I am on almost 44,000 points now so getting there! Managed to write another review today. I have started writing a list of things to review so I don't get stuck.

Thanks Zig!

I had a fairly good day. I got up quite late and then went to Westfield, the weather was pretty awful so got a bit wet on the way and way back. I used some of my vouchers and got myself some leggings, a top and a dress from New Look and two cardies from Zara. Zara was an absolute state and seemed to only have sale stuff so am going to go back after the sale as still got vouchers left. I also went to Boots and got some hair dye and some conditioner. Haven't dyed my hair myself since going back brunette so we will see how that goes.

I also did some Asda shopping to get some food in. Got myself a bargain book for a pound, don't know if it will be any good. Also got a new duvet set for the new duvet.

I have had a look at my finances and after OH's present money I have about 50 quid a week which has to include food . Is not a lot at all so have to try and be as good as possible ths month, take in lunches to work etc.

Sounds like you had a good days shop picking up some good bargins!

I just dont know how you can do so much reviewing i really struggle to stay focused on it.

Well done on your trip to Westfields, i have only been once last christmas, and the amount of people and cars put me off going again. Did you see any celebs? When OH and I went we bumped into Ralf Little, he looked rough and was in much need of a haircut. I do like seeing celebs though.

Also well done on all the reviewing, its hard to get into i found. Keep at it chick.

I'm the same with Westfield, the electronic maps drive me nuts because I always end up waiting behind people who can't seem to fathom out how to use the damn thing and take forever. I wish they had paper maps too like normal places.

Well done on being motivated enough to write for dooyoo though, I can't even remember the last time I logged on to it .

Exactly the same Nich, we couldn't even get to the maps when we went because people were using them to find out which shops had jobs, think they do everything. I think in the end when we did get our go we opted to have the map sent to our mobile as people behind were just moaning. The maps in Bluewater are so much better, easier to work too.

What on earth are you lot talking about????? lol!! Where is westfield? And what are these maps about??!!

wendz86

Westfield is the newish shopping centre in Shepherds Bush in London. Is really near me so I do go quite often. I know where all the shops are (shows how often I go) so I don't need the maps hehe.

I haven't seen any celebs there but we did once bump into someone who went to college with OH in Southampton and was now a PCSO in Westfield and he said he had seen Ruby from Eastenders earlier that day lol.

I am in work today, is quiet and hopefully they will let us go home early.
