    Hi,

    Sorry I’ve not had a chance to post for days but I have been keeping busy.
    Andan – unlike you not to have a long list. LOL
    My dfw things for today:
    • Charged mobile at work
    • Bid and won a couple of Ebay items through RPoints
    • Walked to meet colleagues after work instead of getting a taxi (don’t know which buses go there)
    • Decided not to stay as I was tired thus saving at least £10-£15
    • Sold 1 Ebay item
    • Answered question from potential Ebay buyer
    • Got more bids on items listed on Ebay
    • Used points on some reduced mini eggs – Boots
    • Boots – brought Hello magazine but did use £1 off coupon and got 1 point for bag reuse
    • M&S – Got 2 x Autograph keyrings for £1 each reduced from £9.50 each :D
    • Sister :A left me a bag of used padded envelopes she had been putting aside for me
    • Left my bus pass for my sister to use
    • Got £2 coin to put aside for my sisters wedding cash present
    Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)

    Sans - nice to see you back. No long list today as i had to complete my very boring assignment.

    Its now complete though and i can now get ready for a great day out in the garden creating a very dfw garden. I have already been round to our neighbours and he is going to lend me his strimmer tomorrow and his other more powrful hedge cutter so that will be great. am very lucky to have such a great neighbour, most of his garden tools are in our shed at the moment!!

    runs in and shouts HELLO everyone!

    does anyone else have 3 PAYG internet dongle thingy? Mine in playing up and cant get on internet until after 10pm most nights at the mo. Driving me nuts.

    Anyway

    - scratch and click - 20p, 25p
    - check banking - SO out and rest looks as it should (if a bit barren)
    - no playing taxi for dd today (WOO HOO) but she did get my piggy voucher for new look and has bought some new shoes - in the sale so got change!!
    - walk doggie - couldnt do at lunch as it was raining and my dog dont do rain LOL
    - lunch from stores - but did buy juice and got free cake at work
    - print off some debt letters and get up to date with filing

    Thats all for now cause must get some work done.

    also got accepted for first free trial for tesco home panel, contacted 3 to find out about their shocking capability to provide service (no answer) and have updated my sig a little. will finish tonight if I can get on internet!!

    quite chuffed. Finally written 9 letters that had to be done including the claim for parking ticket last week, claim for credit card fees, letter to court to find out if my application to pay in installments for a small claims debt was accepted at recent hearing, tax credit renewal with up to date info for next year, request for 25% single person council tax allowance.

    All in all, if everything works out I should receive
    - let off with £60 fine
    - £104 cc fees
    - some extra tax credits as income £1k less than expected last year (but will be more next year and child care gone down extensively so wont get that anymore. I think for last year I may get about extra £100?
    - discount of 1098 in council tax nope - that cant be right. gone wrong somewhere....will fix later


    All in all, for a couple of hours work = £1302 in my pocket??!!:eek:

    Need to do some major filing now but will leave that till the morning
    DFW 228 LONG H 68
    DFD 2017 :eek:
