Back from town only spent £10 on food for the week so i'll transfer £35 over to savings, sold the clothes for £15 which i didnt think was too bad and put £4.69 in from the piggy bank sooooooooo total now stands at £3624.33.
(Didnt get shoes mended in the end as they were too far gone so i bought a v cheap pair from the market for £12)0 -
OH team won their division last night so we went out to celebrate, the friend i mentioned a while back who comes round for bath/tea also ended up coming but has no money so we had to buy his drinks-oh well the damage wasnt too bad. Id bought some sparking rose beforehand from the corner shop so i was feeling a bit squiffy before i went out (Yet im still up at this time grrrr might go for a walk actually as the sun is blazing through the windows)
OH was giving me a long list of things he needs to buy/pay for so he doesn't think he'll be able to put ANY money in this month sob!0 -
Hey Cocalls! Just read all the way through your diary, you're doing really well! I've recently got the savings bug and know how addictive it is, but aren't doing as well as you with the little things.
What sort of things are you getting all this cashback from on Quidco?
cheers,

Re quidco-some nice person put together a list of al the free things you can get money from on this board but i can't find it now. But its things like get 2wks free DVD rental from love film for £17 (you must remember to cancel) i got a CC from halifax for £20 i also do daily clicks and get 5p/day from kelko and the high st web
hope that helps.0 -
Just realised i usually get paid on the 16th of the month but as that falls on a sat i'll get it on the 15th now i needed to get a railcard on the 15th so i was not spending £169 from this months wage but as i can get it from nxt months wage i'll put the £169 in the savings account so grand total is now £3793.33 we're getting there!!0
