Cinnys Spending Diary - Take 2

Comments

  • Only costs me about £30 to fill up my little tank ... tho it used to be about £27! We end up going places in my car a lot at the weekends, esp if we're going to the Lakes or Newcastle or York, because it's just more economical. OH offers petrol money but I'm always like, "no, no" - it adds up though.

    Glad OH is a bit happier, you might even get a curly wurly out of it if he's feeling apologetic :D

    *Contented sigh* It's not that often I get to do real adminny things in my job, but the OCD in me loves it - I've just spent a very happy hour archiving and organising all the files on my shelves, have freed up two whole shelves and I'm all happy now. Lookig forard to tackling my bookshelves when I get home, though I find it a LOT harder to chuck hoards of my own stuff away, for some reason :D

    Ooo, I know what you mean Tete! Nothing like a good Office tidy up :D

    I don't know about the Curly Wurly - But he did say I look pretty without makeup, so that makes up for the lack of Wurly that is curly!

    £6 of petrol lasts me almost 2 weeks :o OHs car is very good fuel wise though - A full tank does 500 or so miles, so he should be alright for a week or so on that, plus I'll no doubt give him some Petrol money Sunday before he goes home.

    Done 11 STP tracks so I'm off to do a quick review!

    Ah well, whatever makes you happy - personally I'd rather have a curly-wurly than a compliment anyday!

    How frustrating - I have 44,975 redeemable points on Dooyoo - last 25 points HURRY UP!!!

    ETA - YES!!! Finally! Now have a rather sad looking 5 miles in my kitty!

    I'm easily pleased it seems! He's been ringing me all afternoon though so I've only managed 1 DooYoo review and 11 STP tracks so far, but the night is young ect ect

    You're all showing off. 40 points off 11500 I *think*. Need to step up my game!

    But you redeemed not long ago didnt you? I think i am going to try and get to 40,000 and then redeem. Will go nicely towards OHs christmas present along with the BP vouchers!

    The review i wrote for dooyoo today isnt on there yet, so i have added it to ciao and suggested it for dooyoo. Will upload it as soon as they accept it. Need to try and find something to do for a review tomorrow.

    Was going to do another one tonight but as OH is coming home early i dont think i'll bother.

    No, I'd spend the time with OH if I were you too! Do you have anything planned?

    I redeemed £25 at the end of October, so I'm not doing too bad really!

    Aww, just had a call from OH and he said how thankful he was for everything I've done. Saying how not many people would lend him £250 then not pester for it back, buy him new work trousers when he needs them or presents for him to give people and not ask for the money back, then on top of that offer him diesel money every week. I mean, I didn't know I was so nice :D

    Right, going to attempt a second review!

    Go Cinny! Hehe, I tend to redeem a voucher every 7-10 days on Dooyoo per account, should have a very well stocked house by the time we're ready to move in!
