Well done on the winnings everyone . I sold a necklace today so that's another £24 off of the overdraft, I've almost got £50 now so I'm not doing too badly.

The cube stresses me out- can't take the tension!
Did you have a good night lilmiss?
Congrats on your sale Nicki!!! You are doing really well :-)
Went shopping this morning and bought a new bra (essential!) and a Salt Rock hoodie and vest top (non essential but from an outlet store) Also bought 2010 guiness book of records for OH for Xmas £9 from Asda. He's got an old copy he reads quite a bit so thought it would be good.
Done wii active workout and am now cooking tea and vegging out gonna watch deal or no deal :-)

Also today I have sent off one broken earring to Money4gold. Quidco are doing £19 cash back ( mine tracked at £23!) they don't state how much gold you have to send it just says 'cashback paid for envelope recieved containing gold' will let you know if it works!

Thanks mm. Do you think the wii is actually helping you lose weight? I've been trying to eat better lately but I have no will power and am a bit too fond of cheese, it looks like exercise is the only way but I get bored really quickly if I'm not enjoying it. Oh, and well done on the weight loss .

moneymabel

Definately ! The wiifit was pretty useless for weight loss but the wiiactive is great. I'm still addicted to cheese and had two cream cakes last week so I'm not exactly on a strict diet! Mainly just cutting out some snacks.
Anyway- you don't need to lose weight youre a tiny ickle thing!

Thanks mm. I'm considering saving my amazon vouchers to get a wii instead of a TV. I know I'm not huge but I do eat like a horse so I think it's luck more than anything, and I'm really unfit. To be honest I just want to be in proportion so clothes will fit me properly (and not think I'm going to have a heart attack every 5 seconds lol). I used to get a lot of heart pulpitations which really scared me, but my mum said that they can be a result of stress and I haven't had so many lately so fingers crossed.

I just spent about £70 on clothes in Asda, I'm very emabarassed. My only defence is that most of them aren't for me, and I got work shoes .

OMG I've just won £500 on the TAB scratchcard! I've refreshed my balance to check it and everything. I so wish it was the old days when you could withdraw the winnings, I'm going to be pretty peed off if I don't win anything with it! Do any of you have won have any tips on where best to spend it? The main roomalways seem to have hundreds of players so it seems pretty hard to win anything in there....

Nichelette

Thanks Yukki, I've played through the first £100 and I've made £54 so far so I'm doing better than I expected!
