    Just grabbed a coffee so that I can now sit and catch up. You really have been busy :D Good to hear that you are still finding time to do the matched betting .......it always feels extra special when you get something for nothing. I haven't ventured along that avenue yet but really enjoy the scratchcards and free bingo. Been having fun this week using some of my spend and save coupons to offset the cost of the Tesco cds.
    Have a lovely day.

    I couldn't resist that Body Shop offer either - I tried to, but after yet another look I caved in and bought the gorgeous eyeshadow cubes, £16, a mascara for £10 and teatree concealer for DD1 - total of £11.60 before Quidco 15%.:T

    I have soooo much Body Shop stuff in my pressie stash - 8 gift boxes with eyelash curlers, glitter eye liner, mascara and eyeshadow - they were reduced to £3 from £20...great for pressies for girls pals. I have buckets of shower gel, body butters...mmmmm:) Obsessed, moi?!?!

    Have a lovely day. When are you off to Devon Cliffs?
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    We go on monday Milly, am hoping the weather stays like this :) I know what you mean about the Body Shop stuff, I could set up my own store, but the offers are sooo good that I can't resist! :o

    We've been to the station for a couple of hours, ds loved it and wrote down the number sin his little book :D We're just having some lunch and am then going to go and sort out the car boot stuff, needs sorting into * sellable or * rubbish, and then either boxed up ready to go or taken to the tip.

    We ended up going to the park after lunch and have just got back, it was absolutely lovely up there and ds saw loads of his friends from school, so was happy playing with them :)

    Time to crack on with the free bet now I think :D

    £3 profit from that one, not sure whether to do the others, I don't like betting on horses normally :o

    Well, you did ok with Cheltenham and they were horses.....

    I didn't do the Will Hill National/Golf one, because it would have wiped all my betfair balance, and as the midweek bets resulted in money going to the bookies, not the exchange, I don't want to leave myself with nothing in case there are any weekend offers!

    Watch now - there won't be anything for the weekend now, and I will wish I had taken the money this evening instead :rotfl:

    Morning! The sun is shining again and its looking like its gonna be a lovely day :)

    So far postiehas brought me the Elemis cream I won (its tiny, not sure how they reckon its worth £15 but never mind), I got 10p on the scratches which meant I could withdraw £5 :T

    Off to check out what else is on offer on the boards. Todays plans involve cleaning out the guinea pigs at mums and maybe hitting the beach :D

    Forgot to mention, today is weigh-in day and I've lost another 1/2lb :j I know next week will be bad as we're going to be eating out every day, so it will be lots of zero point soups when we get back :D

    Well done!! That is fab - I had my first day back on the WW wagon yesterday and will make an effort again today. I've had a terrible week food wise (although lots of yummy food, so not terrible in that respect) and have put on a few lbs that I would quite like to knock back into touch before WI on Weds!

    I am sure you will be fine on holiday - you are very disciplined!
