£98.00 is terrific.
I've just sold my current mobile for £60.00 and 200 tesco points. Can't believe the price for some mobiles.
I dug out an old backless mobile as a replacement, and bought a refit off ebay for a couple of pounds today, to upgrade it, only to realise if I stick in one of the free sims that i've got lieing around, I can get about £15.00 for that old thing too.
I need to get my hands on a phone that I can't sell.
Keep up the great work!I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.0 -
This wasn't for a handset Scrooge, it was the deal I took where you pay your monthly charge but then can claim cashback at certain points in the contract. I've got one more lot to reclaim in April, then its new contract time again and hopefully another load of quidco
I do have several old phones I need to send off though, not worth much at all but better to have a few pounds than have them clogging up my spaceMortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000

I do give myself a treat each night though, would never be able to stick to it otherwise. I went through a phase of eating the caramel snackajacks but got sick of them after a bit

Well I'm nearly one week in to the new diet and so far its been fine
I think the difference this time is I'm planning for the day ahead the night before, so I know where my points will go and am having proper meals and varied meals too. Usually I tend to stick to the same things day in day out when I'm on a diet and then I get bored and give up
I've probably had more vegetables this week than I've had in the last 6 months :rotfl: Just enjoying my nightly treat of a frys chocolate cream

I've got 7.5 points left for today - and no chocolate in the house with which to use them up!

Am having coco pops - still only 2 points though, because I am using up milk that I have already accounted for.
So STILL enough for a mars bar if I had one laying around :rotfl:
If I eat any more it would be eating for the sake of it - so will carry them over for later in the week.Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -
