@ Cleosmum - What's the job?
Today, I've:
Done daily scratch - 20p.
Bought my weekly shop at Sainsbury's (all of it from the Basics range) using a giftcard my grandma gave me and not bought anything that wasn't on my list, despite how hungry I was at the time.
Sent an e-mail to Sainsbury's asking why their Basics range includes UHT milk but not regular milk (not sure if this counts as a dfw thing, but maybe they'll start doing Basics milk).
And that's about it really.
