New plan for 2009

ehallett

Damn, lost my extra day. I was kind of expecting it but losing £200 a month is going to hurt big time!! I have still got my March pay and April pay at full-time so won't feel the effect of it until the end of May.

Oh well, Wednesdays will now be mystery shopping/Avon/AQA/surveys/Ebay day!!

I'm home now and not going out again. I have £5.80 left to last me until Tuesday. I'm going to be spending at the most £2.20 of that tomorrow on some more No7 stuff to put away for my sister's birthday as the offer runs out on Sunday (Thank you Marsie :A ) so it doesn't leave me much for petrol but hopefully I will be ok.

I've just collected some M&S toiletries from a lovely lady on Freecycle. They are all brand new and I will put them away for Christmas/birthday pressies (sorry to mention the C word in March!!).

Going to crack on with some AQA now.

Hi everyone

Sorry I haven't posted recently. I was really busy at the end of the month trying to do questions on AQA and have been doing Avon and Ebay this month.

I've done really well on Ebay. I sold my DS which I am planning on replacing by winning a new DSi . I've been entering 10 comps a day to win one!! I got £60 for that and have also sold a mobile phone that I got as part of an upgrade on my mum's contract (£20 a month which I pay for her as she always feeds me) so I sold that for £110. I've put that money towards my car but am still not getting it until the beginning of next month. I've got to sort that out with the dealer but Motability said that shouldn't be a problem.

I've got my mum's birthday presents sorted for Saturday, the light for £60 and some perfume for £40 (both split with my sister so £50 for me which I got from selling stuff on Ebay). My next birthday is my niece's so need to get something for her. Have already got a little picnic set from avon for her for a fiver and I've just ordered a DVD for her from Zavvi for 95p as they emailed me a £2 voucher. I've seen an Upsy Daisy bed in Tesco for £17.50 (was over £30) so will try and get that if they have any left. There is also a denim jacket in Next that I want to get her for £15 so I think that will do her unless I find any other bargins.

I'm babysitting my niece at the moment and am watching Makka Pakka wash faces as we speak :rolleyes:. I can feel my brain turning to mush .

Going to collect some Avon books tonight so fingers crossed for lots of orders. Have already got £15.20 for this campaign but only have 7 days left. Will be busy putting out books and collecting them in over Easter I think.

I got a 2 month DVD rental voucher from Tesco the other day so am enjoying 2 months worth of free DVDs. I've also got some free margerine coming courtesy of Pinecone which is handy as I was running out .

Anyway, better get my niece's dinner in the over. Will post later on after picking up my Avon books.

Keep up the good work.

Hi Emily. Glad to see you are still keeping busy!! You are doing really well.

My DS *loves* Makka Pakka. He washes things in the house now! It's quite cute really. He isn't too keen on upsy daisy though which i'm pleased about as I find her annoying!!! I saw the bed in tescos too, its a good deal. OH wanted to get it for him but I think that he has enough ITNG stuff already!!! I am trying to get him to like BOB the builder or Thomas but he isn't having it at the moment.

I am not sure I can take much more of Iggle Piggle! Help....:rotfl:

Anyway keep up the good work!!!

My Avon orders have gone up to £107.90 . I've still got some more books to collect from people not at home and around half of my territory to still canvas so hopefully will get more.

Work in the morning so better get some sleep.

Hooray - 4 day weekend :j.

My Avon SL came over today to drop some more books off for me. She said I was doing really well. I told her about losing my extra day at work and asked if I could have some more territory. She didn't think it will be a problem and will get back to me next week.

We have only just got my mum's birthday present sorted but my sister and I are already planning for Christmas as she is soooo difficult to buy for. We have decided to try and get her a flat screen tv with DVD player and freeview that she can put in her bedroom. Looking on Amazon, they are about £200. There are 30 weeks until the beginning of November (scary thought!!) so I reckon if I could get £10 a week in Amazon vouchers then that will be her sorted plus some extra for Christmas . So need to add Dooyoo and Bingoport to my list of things to do every day :rolleyes:.

Tomorrow I am delivering some more Avon books in the morning, cleaning the house and then seeing my ex in the evening. Not sure if I am doing the right thing but will see how it goes.
