  • Will check online comps to see if there's anything I fancy winning;
    Will raid the ringpulls for the £10K Diet Coke comp - that would make me instantly debt-free!
    Will check my various airmiles accounts to see what free flights I have available;
    Will list two blouses and a jacket on Ebay;
    Will see what mortgage deals are on offer at the moment;
    Will do my financial filing;
    That's about it.
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

  • Hi All

    Wasn't going to post until tonight as busy at work and trying to keep off the net whilst I should be working, lol, but I am so fed up here today I need to post, lol.
    I really need to get my butt into gear with looking for a new job and getting more extra things done to make extra money. I am really busy tonight and me and my boyfriend are going to London for the weekend tomorrow, going to see Russell Brand for my last years birthday present tomorrow night so decided to make a weekend of it and it also happens to be Valentines day so that's a bonus. Also just got Monday off work so a nice long weekend for us! :love: So from next week I WILL get my butt more into gear, especially with EBAY, signing up to TAB and STP.

    For today:
    Have done mystery shop - will write up report later
    Look for more mystery shops
    Check online banking
    £6 (3 x £2 coins) banked today, will transfer to ISA
    Free scratch - 50p today :D
    Get ingredients for chocolate chip cookies and make them - am making heart shaped ones for the journey to London tomorrow, even though it only takes about 35 mins to get there :rotfl: :heartsmil
    Pack my stuff for the weekend - taking as little as possible so it's not so heavy to lug around
    Finish tidying my room as I didn't yesterday as someone looking at my parents house tomorrow - fingers crossed it sells
  • Afternoon all!!

    Sophiesmum I went on the change4life site a few days ago and ordered my pack. Sounds good - am looking forward to getting it now!

    Have a stinking cold which is being kept at bay with paracetamol and lots of tea. Piglet was in a lovely cuddly moody this morning and then got very upset when I left him at Nursery. Half way round Sainsbugs I just had to call nursery to make sure he was ok. Not very DFW as calls on mobile cost a fortune but at least I found out he was alright!

    Here's my little list for today:

    * Washing - not at 30'c unfortunately as Piglet having lots of "accidents" today! :rotfl:

    * Went shopping with a list....and stuck to it!!!

    * Charge mobile at work

    * Heating off and jumper on

    * Storecupboard dinner (sausages, mash and cabbage...yum!)

    * Do any surveys that come in

    * Do some comps if I get time

    And thats all folks!

  • Hey, feel a bit poo. I think I'm doing something wrong on slicethepie, keeps downgrading me to two stars, then upgrading me to 3, then back down again. Messaged them asking them to give me some sort of guideline as to where I'm going wrong. I really enjoy reviewing these songs and I hate not being good at something.

    - Two lots of hokey cokey done at 30 and put up on airers
