Hi All
Loving the fact that this is a weekend thread because more often than not I don't post on a Saturday, so my things for the weekend done and to do are:
Took some shoes back yesterday so got £7.99 back
Done my 2 free scratches today - 2 x 10p
Looked for mystery shops
Went to Sainsburys yesterday (don't usually go there as it's not near where I live but went to a shopping centre and was on the way back) completely forgot you can use your Nectar card there and when the lady asked if we had one my boyfriend said no but then I (practically) shouted "I do" :rotfl:
Iron for tomorrow (and maybe the rest of the week if I can be bothered)
Write my to do list for next week
Put my clothes away from this weekend
NSD today - almost went to the shops on the way home for chocolate but resisted, think I spied some chocolate nesquick in the cupboard the other day thoughEDIT - JUst got a Creme Egg from my Dad so that's my chocolate fix
Looking on the open uni website as considering finishing my degree but it's the money, dont know if I could pay for that and raise all the money I want to in my sig?

Today was an NSD.
Did a moutain of washing up, did a load of washing too (currently drying behind me as I speak).
Ladled some of the boiled beef n carrots leftover from last night's dinner into a tub and it is now in the freezer, heated up the remainder and had it for tea with some wholemeal bread.
Found 60 euro cents in the pocket of my ski pants (which no longer fit:mad: ) sorted out my sailing trousers which do fit so that I can be warm and dry when I go out tomorrow.0 -

quote debt free me - Looking on the open uni website as considering finishing my degree but it's the money, dont know if I could pay for that and raise all the money I want to in my sig? Debt free me - if you can manage it I would go for it, don't know much about the ou but there are lots of folk here who do - all i know is that you can do it in wee bits and therefore can spread the cost a bit

Debt free me, is there no way you could get it free. The O.U provide lots of financial help, i have got my course paid for due to the amount i earn. Its worth a look on their website.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
