Had a no spend day today:-)...although may have to buy some bread later.
Visited my mum, took her shopping, and her dog for a walk in the woods.
Washed my car on her driveway too.
Going for a walk later down the beach, (ashamed as my clothes are all covered in car wax!!!)0 -

Had HM lunch as per the norm.
Didn't spend anything before/during/after work and drinking more water from the coolers we have too (saving on own teabags/milk!)
Made chicken curry for dinner tonight (with extra for freezer) and had with rice and BOGOF naan bread.
Sponged some dirt off son's school trousers, so he can wear those tomorrow instead of a clean pair everyday, thus saving on washing! Is this too mean?!
Going to check out Tesco's website and see which wines are on 30% off, in readiness to perhaps get a couple of bottles put away for Xmas and 1 for me maybe...

Who else reckons I might be a bit obsessed?
Its ok. BH monday I was standing outside, nipping the ankles of all around me with my trolley in a bid to get in for yellow labels. What makes it worse is that I went an hour before closing on the saturday night... what did I expect?! shelves laden?!0 -

I don't think so - I try and get two days wear out of work trousers & skirts where possible...sometimes if I have been really good I even stretch to three!!

I had to go to Morrisons for spuds and fresh cream, I walked out with cream and spuds, nothing else at all.
My old lawn mower was collected by someone on freecycle with a posh car.Nevermind the dog, beware of the kids!0 -
Youre certainly having a good news day today Lynz!lynzpower wrote:Just went to re-order a coop visa card as I have to pay some rent arrears still and they've offered my 0% for 9 months! Wooo, so the barclaycard will go ( with 350 on 19% :eek:) and the rent arrears on that card when it comes... not pleased about having to do this, but cheaper than my overdraft.
Well done.The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0 -
My efforts are pretty pathetic. I posted off 2 parcels that i sold on ebay and went to the filling station near the post office which is the cheapest in the area. Morrisons. I used my points card and they gave me a £5 voucher for shopping in Morrisons. Will save it till I really need something. i put in 2 efforts on the car poster competition on this site (£50 prize although i dont hold out much hope, some of the entries are brilliant and mine pale and insignificant in comparison).The forest would be very silent if no birds sang except for the birds that sang the best0
