  • Hello all, it's been busy on here today:)

    Have just used Topcashback to do an online shop of £40 giving me £7.50 cashback :jwhich means I have now spent this months food budget:( and will have to manage until March 1st without anything else. I got 5 bottles of wine and 2 large jars of coffee in that and lots of basics stuff to keep the cupboards topped up so I should be okay for a while.

    I also listed everything properly on music magpie and it came to £29ish so I am just waiting for them to send me the welcome pack, I used TCB for that as well so it should get me about £2 cashback and I ordered some sims which should get another £4.50 which I can use to check that my old phones have all my personal information wiped off them so that I can send those off for some more money and cashback, I think they are only worth £10 between them :o but every little helps and it counts as decluttering. :D

    I am going to order a new phone this week as my contract is up and then recycle my current phone which is worth around £40 so by the end of the week I should have got rid of some cds, dvds and phones, have a fully stocked cupboard and wine rack and earned myself about £80 and made about £20 cashback as well.

    Am feeling scarily organised at the moment:).

    6 pages??? I thought this thread has been quite quiet so far in 2010 and now you're all making up for it in one weekend! Off to catch up again...
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending
