    blimey can't believe i haven't posted for so long! I sold all my stuff on ebay from last months post and want to ebay an Isabella oliver skirt and shirt too to get some more money. I made £25 at the carboot sale but found what sold really well were my clothes so am going to have a massive clearout and will do another one in August. I as always have huge pile of ironing to do but i have ordered my legoland vouchers and we are going on Tuesday! hooray feel kind of achieved a whole month on to find i have got some stuff done! Am trying to do loads of free stuff with son and have been going to the surestart centre with dd to do baby massage and baby groups etc so all going well on that front. Going to asda this afternoon to stock up on some stuff so hoping not to spend a fortune!

    Managed to get some eggs for 57p, a chicken for 2.30 and some turkey for £1.20 at Asda so felt nicely achieved! Had to buy 5 cards though for fathers day quickly followed by dh birthday the next day so spend about £8 on them. Really got to watch my money now though cos i have dwindling funds unfortunately but at least have no preschool fees this month. Am going to join the make £10 a day thread for july as i need to make some more money as I don't want to run out.
