make up,
what surveys do you do?
Finished wrapping for me and did my brothers present to me too. He's so disorganised that I bought it myself and have told him he owes me the cash for it! It's an ace M and S cheeseboard that I really wanted. He got very excited about this idea and I've ended up buying a few of his gifts (on Quidco of course) for him. Wrote my own tag and everything!!!'The road to a friends house is never long'0 -
Hello again,
I am sober
I dont want to open a bottle of wine & not finish it within 3 days, but wine & work definitely dont mix well for me.
I dont want to open a new bottle of tonic either.
I dont want to open my bottle of Disaronno yet as it's a Christmas treat.
Have no man here to amuse myself with :rolleyes: so had to get my thrills with a bit of goddessing & a payment towards the CC debt. Oh yes, I know how to party :rotfl:0 -

Pah! None of the M&S codes work and I wanted to get a bag
.
I have used my Tesco points to order myself a magazine subscription for Christmas, had £3 paid by a cashback site and ordered a game for my Nintendo DS for £11.85 using a code on the grabbit board, so quite a good day for bargains considering I haven't left the house. I went to order some presents online for Xmas and they had sold out:eek:. That is throwing out my plans as I wanted to have everything here so I could do the wrapping next weekend.
I am trying to be as frugal as possible with Christmas, I know I have saved a lot with codes and vouchers and 3for2s and managed to get myself some nice bargains/freebies but I have still been spending. :rolleyes: So I am declaring now that I am going to make 2010 The Year of Living Frugally, I know I can do it, considering all the tips I have learned on this board it would probably be more difficult not to live frugally :rolleyes: but I am going to do it properly. I am not going to spend a single penny without being able to account for it, I did start this earlier in the year but Christmas has thrown me out a bit, so it seems best to go with the flow and start again in January. This of course gives me the perfect opportunity to keep spending up to Christmas.Pay/save £20k in 2010 £5888.75/£20,000June Mini target 0/5lbs Total 23/40Ebay profit 2010: March £207:) April £95:) May £130:) June £0 Total £432:j0 -

Hmmm what with living frugally, clothes challenges, being a BAV & still dieting, sounds like 2010 is going to be an absolute blast :rotfl:
Cant wait :rolleyes:

Me too Sarah, really want a holiday next year. Going to start my own diary next year and keep doing my spending diary too.
I am far too disorganised to keep a spending diary:o but I have fould it works quite well to have to update my £20k challenge each day so I might start putting my spending on here, to shame me into not spending anything:oPay/save £20k in 2010 £5888.75/£20,000June Mini target 0/5lbs Total 23/40Ebay profit 2010: March £207:) April £95:) May £130:) June £0 Total £432:j0 -
