quick question...........has everyone sent all the info take a break want before they pay out???

I didn't realise you had to send them info but that makes sense as someone else said about having to send info in for payment from one of the sites. From what i have heard quite a few people have sent the info and got their payment, so all seems fine.

Drinking the free coffee in the office (which is the first time I've ever included that in this list, but apparently the same vending company charge a frm similar to ours 10p a cup!);
Will check Pigsback and Quidco;
I did order 'Rita, Sue and Bob too' on DVD from Amazon for a friend's birthday - totally chavatstic ("Ah thought ah wur great");
Will check bank account;
Will write to gym asking them to put my membership on hold due to injury (hip bursitis which is bad enough that it's visible!);
Checked my Egg credit card and they've reimbursed £550 of reclaimed PPI cover to my account - outstanding balance now £705 from £2,300 in the last 8 months and it will be gone within 4 months I reckon. Woo hoo!!!!:j

Morning everyone!

Got a job interview today :eek: and out tonight, so not a lot of time in between to get other stuff done!

As it stands, my list is:

• reach £9.00 overall on STP
• find and iron outfit to wear for interview
• tidy living room
• wash dishes and tidy kitchen
• walk dog for free exercise
• pack up and post Amazon sale
• money in sealed pot
• go to pet shop (after interview so I don't have to go in with a bag of dog treats! )
• do one DooYoo review
• list 10 items on Ebay (moved over from yesterday - just took pictures and only listed 1 item yesterday lol! )
• lunch and dinner from cupboards before going out

Have a great day everyone, be back to update soon!

I am such an idiot, I checked my capital one estatement a few days ago and noticed my estimated interest on next months had jumped. I thought I was on a 0% on purchases for 9 months. So I queried it, today I get a letter from capital one with a copy of the cca, sure enough it says the offer ends in feb, so I dig out my original copy to compare and it says the same thing. I am so silly, where the hell did I get 9 months from? Probably from the original letter and just assumed that would apply to the actual card. Read the fine print, Heidi, every time!

Good morning all, been away for a few days in sunny spain so im back now and full of DFW beans. Even managed to come back with loads of unspent euros which is very good, last year I would have splurged on anything just cos I was on holidays and had currency burning a hole in my pocket!

So today I shall

• Check online banking and move euro money to savings account
• Renew library books and maybe reserve some more
• Breakfast and lunch from home
• Have even bought in our big bottle of diet coke so I don’t buy a can from vending machine at work
• Wearing bagpuss socks!
• Daily scratchcard – forgot yesterday!
• Check quidco – this month will be a record breaker - £135 planned so far, plus ive changed the bank details so it will automatically go into my savings and not into the spending black hole that is my current account!
• Read my 3 for £1 magazine that came yesterday with a hot choc after work
• Work an extra 20 mins for the flexi credit – every little helps
• Had a NSD yesterday – my 4th of the month, not great but the 2nd half of the month is always more frugal than the start
• Will today be a NSD – hopefully – thinking of putting a post it with NSD!!!!!!!! on my purse to stop me buying frivolous things!
• Will use gym membership up

Have a good day everyone –don’t work too hard!

Hi Everyone

Lots of great lists going on today. I've nicked a couple of ideas from you.

I went out with the girls last night to celebrate my engagement and they paid for everything! Was really nice of them - I did contribute with a 2for1 voucher and paid the tip!

I've got college tonight so there isn't much money saving to do today but here are few things that I can do:

• charge my ipod and mobile phone at work using the USB
• loaf in BM (to merry to measure out the ingredients yesterday!)
• try to buy some ingredients that will make a lunch and dinner today or have a good sized lunch to keep me going til 10pm
• carry on reading my chapter on my way to class.
• Sparkle (everyone at work thinks I'm great at the moment:j )

Have a great Thursday everyone - not long til the weekend.
