    Evening all,

    I'm back here after being away for Christmas and didn't feel very DFW at this time!!

    Today was nice and quiet for me with a long lie in with OH for once
    Storecupboard brunch and snacks and tea
    Sitting wrapped up in blancket with fluffly Christmas socks on feeling cosy!
    Copied and pasted a load of cheap recipes from OS thread to print at work and use for next month.
    Reached 11/12 NSD
    Joined and set Jan Grocery Challenge
    Found out spending diary to start tomorrow - scary!
    Back to work tomorrow and lunch out of freezer to defrost
    Will invite friend for tea here instead of going out
    Think about OS MS New Year's Eve meal instead of spending on ready made rubbish!

    Evening all,

    MrsAudus2b - what lovely parents you have
    Candy - your DH should be ashamed! Hope he makes it up to you.
    Andan - I hope I am as productive tomorrow as you are with your amazing lists. Our main bedroom (which we luckily don't sleep in) is a disaster area with all my stuff I dump in there as my wardrobes are jam packed! :o Hoping that whilst DH is back at work tomorrow I will leave DS so I can get organising which will take hours...hoping my stupid cold goes away too as I just feel like lying in bed (which I've been in for a few hours already today since I got home from the shops).

    Anyway my dfw things for today:
    • Lidl – got 6 free papers (yesterdays) and cut out coupons (used already)
    • Found 10p
    • Asda – used £8+ money off coupons off shopping :T
    • mum gave me a 25p off coupon she won't use
    • Listed 16 items on Ebay (got 3 watchers)
    • Purchased 2nd chance offer item from Ebay seller
    That’s all I can think of.
    Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)
    Boots points: £0.28
    Pigsback points: 715 (4 xBoots£10 & 1 xPizzaHut£10, 2 x £10 clothing vouchers)
    Mutual points: 3417 (redeemed 8250)
    Rpoints:redeemed 28925 points)Cashbag:£8.91(£20)
  • Andan, Miss Piggy, Piq, Mummy2mygirls and Sans - thank you!

    I reallly can't tell you how emotional I was! OH has been worried for ages about me going about in my old banger especially with the amount of travelling I do, which will increase still further in september when I go back to uni. The new car is a 2002 nissan....my other cars have all been at least 13 years old so it really is amazing!

    PS: It's so great to be back on the thread after the xmas break...I have missed you all!

    Hope you feel better too Sans, these colds can really knock you for six. Your productive day tomorrow sounds like fun, i love rummaging and sorting through things, you never know what you'll find!!:rotfl:

    Candy, yes, forgot to say, i hope the husband made it up to you and your wedding anniversary got better as the day went on. Some men!!:rolleyes:

    I need to get into the daily scratchcard thing - how do I go about it? I tink I am a member of most of the bingo sites - can anyone give me a link to the right ones or a thread on here which explains it?
