Was brave and went to boots and man was a bit shirty with me but exited the shop with one lovely gift bag - thanks SM and those who made me feel brave - in alot of the dialogue - you were my 'friend'.

Shop manager was a bit ratty - but hey ho - I have my swag - another one for the pressie box

And I got a rainbow maker today for DD xmas - so that's in the box too - from quidco of course and 10% cash back

And a sun jar which is now in the bathroom charging up for tonight been looking for one for ages and one of the quidco stores has 10% commission cash back (unlike the ethical superstore) for alot of the same things - so sorry ethical superstore bought it from the other shop xxx

My SIL had a baby girl today - awwwww - any ideas on a nice internet store to send a lovely something from - I usually just use MandS - any thoughts appreciated - we aren't going to see her for a while so I thought a wee something by post would be nice...

Lillian - I just had a quick look at your 101 things, haven't had time to read it all coz going to get hair cut, but I will catch up with it. Will catch up with others as well, do all of you that are doing them have blogs?

Might think about doing this too.

Hey guys, well it was back at work for me today, but didn't take the car as it wasn't worth risking trying to move it off the snow that had now turned into ice and still no gritters have been out:eek:

I have booked my car in for it MOT, its the second one since i have had it but the first time i have ever taken it so am feeling very worried about it. However i have phoned up OH for some moral support and he has told me what to check etc.

So things for today:
-Been to work and got paid
-Finally able to move my car once ice had melted a bit
-Done daily scratch cards
-Done three mystery shops
-Lots of free food
-No college tonight due to the weather, which has saved me a ton on petrol
-No heating currently on and heating when it goes on it will be turned down low
-Have cleaned out car for MOT
-Meals from storecupboard
-Write up mystery shopping report
-I have done all safety checks and filled car up etc
-I will work through emails
-Do some surveys
-Check online banking
-Move some money around
-Sort out mystery shop for tomorrow
-Tidy bedroom for productive work space
-Check for cheap london tickets
-Continue using up beauty products
-Play some bingo port
-Update blog
-Update spreadsheets
-Read fave threads
-Check freebie section
-check freecycle
-Check with friend to make sure she is coming over tomorrow night for deep tissue massage
-I have updated website after someone twisted the words i had used on my website and asked for a service of a different kind. Am rather fed up of men thinking i provide a service of a different sort:rolleyes:
-Have been reading lots of threads re mot and how to help make sure everything is ok for it
-Scan shopping and put away

Have a great night everyone.
