Mooooving Into 2010 - Bovine Adventures In Budgeteering!

Birthday flowers ordered for mums birthday next week.

I had money in my Paypal account and found a 10% off code, so total spend for bouquet of red roses is £18.57 (Went through Quidco too so there should be cashback at some point!)

£1.45 = total spent on tea/coffee so far

*edited to add face of shame*

I have also sold a £10 Sainsbury's voucher to a colleague at work who shops in nicer places than me and redeemed £5 BingoPort points for Foxy bingo cash. It's nice to make money sometimes!

LOOOOOKKKK!!!







Cat loves boxes :rotfl:

They're both beautiful. Will you love it and hug it and call it George?



I have a puddy tat that looks so like yours just a value brand version. The vet calls her a "cut and shut" cos she looks like two cats stuck together with a shortened wheel base. Her little feet made a perfect square when she stands up, she was made at 4.55pm on a Friday.

My PAD this morning brought my savings account balance to £1000. I have never had this much money in an account. Ever. It's going to eventually repay my loan, so it's not my own savings, but it's really satisfying to know that I can save as well as spend

This morning I need to remember where I have hidden my flasks. Tea and coffee will be the end of this budgeteering challenge for me.

Money Update

Spends = £90
PAD = £210.81 (Still living off Mr Fresian's tax rebate )
Entertainment = £33.16 and out for dinner next week
Groceries = £105.39 with a freezer full of meat

Purse = £21

Days until payday - 14

All is not as bad as I thought at the start of this 5 week month. I have no idea what we're going to have for dinner tonight though as I really want to avoid a post-work trip to the supermarket for veg...cheese on toast could be a plan

Credit card is briefly sitting at zero (Not the laptop one, that's only got £139 to pay though!) but the money for the birthday flowers will go on there at some point soon and that will be more fun for the budgeteering challenge. I'm not counting it until it goes on the card though

Cinema tonight with Mr Fresian to see District 9 which looks amazing. Hey kissjen what do you fancy seeing next week when we go?

Work for me (Boo!) Toodles!

Hi F_F,
I'm needing a new laptop (kids hijacked my current one:o) and it's the Dell one that you have that's the best I can find!

I just wondered how you are getting on with it? I'm very tempted by it...but think the reduced price runs out today so I'd better make a decision quickly;)

Only had it since yesterday but it's lovely and shiny and Mr Fresian (who knows more than me) was impressed with the spec for the price.

Get it in a nice colour and post a picture though

I ordered it - in purple too, so you won't want to see a pic of it! It was that or pink, but didn't want to be too girly:rotfl:

I couldn't find anything else with such a good spec anywere...and the purple kind of sold it to me;)
