Saturday/Sunday 16th-17th May - What small DFW things have you done today?

Pippilongstocking

DVD's were invented for this precise purpose. YOu work for the greater good of your famly just make sure its a decent length dvd.

3 1/2 is a good age to start potion making - somewhere that can't get mucky or on top of a tea towel - keeps them amused whilst you clean the kitchen - best done in the garden but the kitchens a good bad day making venue

Fairy potion or soup
get a 3 1/2 year old
add a big bowl,
ADD water and food colouring -
lots of odd bits of old ingredients in the cupboards,
maybe some glitter or some flower petals.
Brilliant
Stir for ages making wishes

Thanks for the congrats all, really pleased, but scared! How daft am I?! I think Im a bit shocked, Ive been applying like mad and getting nowhere, but this application was just off the cuff, found it in a shop window and 24 hours later the job is mine, didnt really have time to think about it all...I think it doesnt help that it wont take me in the direction I had been trying to go but I will see how I get on! Also doesnt help that its every saturday, 9-5 and that wasnt in my plans lol.

• Meals from stores
• Go to work for an hour to meet my saturday colleague :eek:
• Will get OH to make up some SW meals to pop in freezer
• MUST stick to diet or weigh in wont be good!!!
• Take an item back for refund as not needed, take another item back to get next size up (dd sandals)

Hmmm think thats it.....

Andan - Your list is Mahooooooosive !! When do you ever rest?

Today I have/will:

• Finished my 101 list :jat some ridiculous time this morning (think it was about 1.30am!!) and set up my blog for it.
• Having a family photo shoot, you get a large photo free and it all only cost a tenner.
• Watch Eurovision with my £1 dip and 25p tortillas, in the bad with money days we used to have a HUGE party that cost in the region of £200 :eek: so think this is quite a saving!
• Scratchees and clicks
• Any surveys that wing their way to me.
• Storecupboard tea as per mealplan
• Maybe start following weeks mealplan
• Go to flat to sort it out a bit more before valuation

Hi everyone - I haven't had much of a chance to get on and post for a few days but I've just caught up and have to say well done - loads of great achievements and progress made this week!

I had a lovely evening last night. We had friends round for £1.25 pizzas from the corner shop and watched a stand-up DVD that I got from a charity shop ages ago. Far cheaper than our local comedy club which is a favourite friday night haunt, and no taxi fare!

Unfortunately I have woken up with a stinking cold, but on the plus side that means I will be more likely to achieve a NSD.:rolleyes:

Hey guys, haven't posted for a while but am finding myself spending on my (very low limit) credit cards again so need to get myself back on track before I find myself not debt free again!

Things to do today:

No breakfast in this morning so left for work early and went to Asda to bulk buy fruit and soy yoghurts, also 2 massssssive cartons of Tropicana for £3 - poured some into an empty juice bottle that I keep in the cupboard and OH took the rest home. Cheaper than going to the cafe next door!

Working at PT job this morning for extra money and free cinema tickets next week

Scrounged through lost property giveaway bag and found a nice leather TopShop bag and Orla Kierly makeup bag, might keep or might sell on Ebay

OH isn't going to the pub to watch the football so have found him a website to watch it on (ssshhh)

Storecupboard meal, got 18 eggs to use up!

Low spend and transfer all spare money to savings and CC balance to try and get even again


Have good days everyone! xx
