    Morning everyone.

    You must have got married really close to my birthday MrsTine, good luck with the saving fund/baby. I think I'm going to do the same as you with my free money come April, but it will be going into Abbey to pay my overdraft off. Well done on the bingoport wins Yukki :).

    I'm really happy as I managed to get about £35 of ham/bread and some other fridge stuff last night for about £4 which is quite funny for a vegetarian. I plan to freeze it all and split it between my mum, dad & OH. My lovefilm has also *finally* paid from June which I'm elated about, if Vernons also pay out this month I'll be pretty happy.

    Strangely my wipers weren't squirting water last night. I filled them up last night as they were empty but have just realised they were probably frozen rather than broken (the water thing did actually break on my old car so I got a bit paranoid) :o . Fingers crossed anyway, my MOT is tomorrow. My car is 4 this year so between this and my last car it's only my 3rd MOT. They do actually make me feel physically sick :(.

    Anyway, have a nice day everyone :).

    It kind of does Stacy, but it will only happen at the end of the month, so if you hit £10 on the 15th you'll have to wait another two weeks before you get the money.

    Just thinking wouldnt it be better for me to leave the minimum payment on quidco at £0.00 because then wont they pay me what ever is able to be withdrawn at the end of every month? thus is confusing me lol

    Good luck for your MOT Nicki -what ever happens it can't be worse than my old mini which behaved itself as i drove it to the MOT station but as soon as the MOT tester started the engine the oil seal broke and it sprayed oil all over the mot testing station, other cars and assorted mechanics. I like to think that she was a bit nervous and wet herself lol!!!
