Day job have confirmed overtime so I'm working on Saturdays 1st and 8th July. Hopefully will earn about £100 after tax etc. Not great rates but better than nowt!

Hey guys!!! ......................................................................................... Thanks for the encouraging thoughts!! I did indeed clean and organise like a mad one this weekend and the flat is better for it!! Still got a few bits to do but not urgent and can be done in the evenings before I go on hol- 17 days to go!! :j .......................................................................................... I made just over £65 on eBay yesterday!!!
That will be coming off the debts!! Woo hoo!!! Sending all the parcels tomorrow along with my mobile phone which I am sending to envirophone and hope to get £5.99 for it. Although in two minds as to whether I should sell it on eBay or not :think:..... I have got some GHD straighteners which blew up on me which I have to send off too, hopefully will get a new pair as apparently they are slightly faulty- first batch that were made. Not bad if I can!
............................. Am working 7 days this week and probably next week too
all pennies come in handy though, and it's not too bad as off on hol's the week after. (have I already mentioned that?!!!
).............................................................. Take care and I will update later in the week. Aiming to spend as little as possible this week, although got to send the straighteners, and I have a friend coming round for dinner on Thursday night (she wanted to go out but I offered a meal at mine!!
) and I'm going out for a meal on Friday night with my friend, it is a lush chinese restaurant and it is £13.49 for all you can eat so I will know exactly how much I am spending on food. I saved £9.50 out of my allowances (pocket money
) for last week and I underspent on my food shopping by just under a £5er so that's the food covered. And the drinks will be covered by whatever I have left out of my pocket money this week. Still got £10 so far, but then it is only Monday!!!............................................ Adios for now amigos!!! xx

**purpleprincess** wrote:No!!! It's the way I manage my money and it works for me!! No cards, just a tenner cash in a jar every Sunday for the next week and I can only spend what is in the jar!! That is my allowance! Totally separate from bills and food and I can use it for what I want! Generally try and save it up to do things I want to do like go out for dinner Friday night!!
Well remember to take a doggy bag to the chinesse with you. You might be able to get a few weeks meals out of it!0
