Bumbling along to be Mortgage Free

Yeah on the £10 ! :T

It's well worth doing , I can't get mine on BB to load for some reason anymore so I can't play it.

My other books just arrived from amazon. Luckily the kids are tired so DS1 is playing on his nintendo ds and DS2 watching peppa pig. Easy tea planned (pizza) so i should get some play time myself.

Just got up to £10 on daily scratchcards for the first time. Withdrawn that back to the CC. That will be a bit of a help.

Hi Michelle

can you explain what scratchcards you do please? How much do you get a month?

hey michelle
gosh you do sound busy! hope DS settles soon with the long week at school, and you get at least a little lie in on your weekends!
sad about the cat- hope council sorts it asap as not nice for little ones to see, I will have a look at the blanket as 3 of my friends have recently had babies .. off the top of my head prices sound more than reasonable for something homemade
well done on the wt loss- and good luck on the challenge! theres nothing like setting myself a challenge to make myself do something :rotfl:

I do scratchies too. I do littlewoods bingo and OH does butlins but its me who actually does it. pays around £10 every 3 months so £40 a year £80 as we both do it, that being said I have had a £100 once and OH gets lots of £5's and £1's so we are sitting about £170 for 2010 already with OH on £9.60 somthing and i'm on £6 something. We might be able to squeeze another £40 in withdrawals before 2010 ends so it is worth it as only takes a few seconds a day.

Gotta love 'free' money. Do you do pinecone?? or shop and scan/consumer pulse?? I do all three getting cash into paypal, amazon/argos/high street vouchers and TBH looking at being a mostly neutral pressie cost for christmas.

Next year I have my eye on a kenwood chef.

I've also got the washing up to do as he has trapped his thumb at work today. It is rather fetchingly blue and the nail is bleeding where he had to have it drilled. Men! I'm thinking of the overtime money that will come in handy at some stage.

How dare he leave you to do the washing up! Neither wonder he's getting no sympathy :rotfl:

Good old MIL - they are good to you aren't they (as long as they stay out of your freezer & front garden )

Unfortunately we didn't renew our membership after a man there was extremely rude to me!!! I do like nosing at all the christmas stuff tho!

Hi Cha,

Just had a quick sim through - you sound like you've got loads of ideas on the go and thanks to whoever mentioned free Ebay this weekend. I've never actually used it before but I guess if it's free I've got nothing to lose!

I'm wondering whether you could push your blanket prices up a little bit. I saw some cot sized blankets in the Cath Kidston shop in Leeds last week, they were £30 and yes, they were very neat and made with a lovely soft wool, but they weren't handmade and they were only stocking stitch patches, nothing fancy. I'm sure Mr Big mentions something about not selling your stuff too cheaply
