    Sounds like a good list for the next few days!

    That is annoying about OH's mate betting his money away, hope he gets it back off him.

    You seem to be doing well on daily clicks, i haven't really looked at these before so might have a look.

    Morning Cinny,

    Yes I did do the Time thing and it tracked within a few hours, also the 50p from the Coke :) Lying in bed last night I thought of two things I've done on Quidco recently that haven't shown up - one was the holiday and I can't for the life of me remember what the other one was...

    At least OH's friend is giving him the money back I guess. You are doing well on the clicks, how long did it take you to get to £11-odd? You've also reminded me I need to check my bank... :(:(

    I just started last night, £10 is from signing up bonus.
    I'm waiting on £5 from snapfish via quidco too, did it last week but seems to be take a while to come through for a few people. And just got another £1 free from Quidco using their T-mobile offer. I'm liking all this free money!

    It is annoying about his friend, he seems to have a real gambling problem. One day he gambled away £30, then lost another £60 trying to win it back! He's borrowed money off of OH before for bets and he always gets it back, but you just wouldn't do that with someone elses money!

    Wendz - I'm using EagerLearner's spreadsheets, if you want them I can email them too you, or PM EagerLearner and they send them over with a few extra bits.

    Just got back from town, dropped the library books off and went to the bank to put my MMP cheque in but they didn't open until 10 so I'll take it down Friday. Got my kitty his new collar, ruined todays NSD but it was reduced to 99p and would most likely be gone by payday. My cat wasn't too impressed with it at first, trying to push it off until he got distracted by the bell. Now he seems quite smitten.

    Tete - Hope the looking at the bank wasn't too bad! I need to check mine today but I'm dreading it.

    Well done on the daily clicks! I'm too lazy for that kind of thing, but it seems to be working for you!

    I'd be annoyed if my OH's mate did that! But partly cuz my OH is the type of guy who would forget about money owed to him, rather than chase it up. :mad: :rolleyes:

    You've reminded me that I need to join the local library, I keep spending money on books from the supermarket...:o

    I think I'm too lazy for it too Zig! Need to get cracking with todays. Keep on finding other things to do, going to try and at least make 50p tonight. I have tomorrow afternoon off so i'm really going to go for it (when I've finish tanning..and ironing...)

    Total Spends for today:
    Cat Collar - 99p

    I have £2.13 left in my wallet. Somewhere along the line I've lost 18p, I think my cat took it to fund his catnip addiction, I think the chavvy kittens have been selling it on in the alley. Maybe that's why he lost his collar, to look feral!.. Okay Doctors, I'll go quietly...

    To do list for this week:
    [STRIKE]Post letter to Tesco CC[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Cheap train tickets to London
    Cheap London Hotels[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Pick up new Cat Collars[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]3 NSDs[/STRIKE] 1 to go
    2 DooYoo reviews
    Get boxes for eBay items
    List 2 more eBay items - Not a chance! I don't have anything to sell :rolleyes:
    [STRIKE]Take Library books back
    Quidco Free Offers
    Get things together for Carboot[/STRIKE]

    After getting excited over the Cath Kidston sale leaflet via email I came home to find I had a little booklet of the sale bits waiting for me. It's torture!!

    Can't believe how fast the afternoons are going, only feels about 7:30ish!

    I'm not doing too well. This morning I thought 'I've managed perfectly well without it, and I'm only wanting it because it's on sale' which is true, but now I'm looking at the things. I really really want them all. Put all the things I want in a basket and it's come too £115.. tum te tum

    But the does include a holdall.
    And I do acutally need one of them.
    Just maybe not at £50..

    Why couldn't they have this sale at the end of July when I'm having my little shopping spree? I'll just have to hope and pray they still have the holdall by then!

    On the brightside, it's payday tomorrow! :j Will have to get to work on my budget for next week.

    Managed to get the snacks for the cinema tomorrow for free. A company we go to for signs keep on giving us packets of KPs new brand of nuts. Frosted Vanilla and Cinnamon nuts with chocolate covered honeycomb and raisins. Yum!

    Ooh, I've been having a look myself - I really think I *need* one of those bags with the boats on for on the beach next month! And is it bad that I'm tempted by the peg bag, to put away for some unknown time in the future when I might have my own place?

    Just joined a few more daily click sites. Will have to get up to speed with them this afternoon, going to give myself a mini to do list so I don't get sidetracked:

    Thursday To-Do:
    Get on top of Daily clicks
    Try and find at least 2 things for eBay
    1 DooYoo review
    Make a batch of oaty biscuits for OH
    Do 15,000 steps
    Do the ironing for Mum (excuse to watch a dvd)

    Should be easily done. I have 9 hours to fit it all in so no excuses! If I fail I need someone to give me a right telling off, maybe use the angry face?

    Remembered I can't work my budget tonight, my Uncle hasn't printed off the wage slips yet so tomorrows wages will be a surprise :rolleyes: Will have to scribble it on a notepad on the way to the cinema tomorrow afternoon!

    ETA: I was looking at the peg bag thinking the same thing!! :rotfl:
    I think you might need the Salior print bag too, I mean everyone needs a beach bag right?

    Wage slip day here too! Yay! I have £32 in the bank and about £4 in my purse, so can get £10 out and put £20 in the car and I should get through tonight. Unfortunately I now have a wish list of Office sandals in sale (£30), Boat print bag in sale (£15) and ... peg bag (£6) so that's like £50 straight away. Augh! Why can't I just be rich?!

    Good luck with the to do list, if you can sneak a DVD in there it's hardly like work at all!
