Friday 23rd Oct - What small DFW things have you done today?

skintnutta

No I haven't, I'll look into that. Is it free to post on it, do you know?

In your signature, how do you put a line through number?

Thanks in advance!

Lurleene

Also Netmums is a great place for selling kids things, skintnutta. I've sold quite a few things through there lately and it is completely free.

MoneySavingKate

It is free to list and anything that I have ever put on has gone straightaway! Also if the items are big most people are happy to pick up.

The line through is the last button on the toolbar at the top, it is a letter s with a line through it, just highlight the text you want to cross out and press the button. It puts an ugly {STRIKE} (but with square brackets) but this doesn't show up when you post.

Lurleene- thanks, I've put it on netmums before but no response, put on again today. Maybe asking too much but did open to offers this time, so fingers crossed.

MoneySavingKate - thanks for toolbar advice! Gonna look at gumtree just now.

Hi everyone,

I had a moral dilema this morning. After dropping DS1 to school went to co-op and had to get £10 out for essentials. There was a lady in front of me using the ATM and when she left and I read screen it said 'Would you like to do another transaction?' OMG! She hadn't taken her card out and it was giving me the chance to take some free cash! It was so tempting for a few moments and I did carry on to see if it really would give me some (we only have £46 to last us until Wednesday) but couldn't do it. How would I feel if someone did that to me? I said 'no' and got the card back and found her by her car (a big people carrier!). I explained what I had found and that she was lucky it was someone so honest. She just said she was very busy and distracted. A bit of me wishes I had taken some money out, as she didn't seem at all grateful but agghhh what a dilema. I did do the right thing.

I was rewarded, in the Co-op they had 3 packs each with 2 chicken breasts, use by today, reduced from £2.99 to £1.45! Got all three and put 2 in the freezer and will make chicken curry tonight with other!

What would you have done?

Just popping in to be nosey and have a browse and couldnt help commenting on this post!
Good on you for being honest. What goes around, comes around. :T

It's Friday!!!!

And I've got a three day weekend and finish at 2pm today - that's practically like a holiday!

List for today -

• Breakfast in the car (had a bit of a lie in and was late!)
• Lunch from stores
• Check banking
• Dinner from plan (need to take chicken out of freezer when I get home this afternoon)
• PAD to someone, not sure what yet!
• Paint radiator and grouting in flat (oops - didn't do this yesterday )
• Buy shower screen and bath panel for flat
• Buy some coal for blanket-fire-xfactor night tomorrow

Think that's it, feel exhausted and full of the cold just now, would love to just go home and flop on the settee for a bit. Never mind, on we go...

Skintnutta - you definitely did the right thing, good for you.

Honeybear/Fay/Milly - it's not fair, my computer at work won't let me get any funky smilies, have just got the boring normal ones! :rolleyes:

I'm the same. I only have the funky ones when I'm at home like today. My work posts are always a bit dull by comparison

So here, just for you:

Lurleene

Hi again, time for my list. Today I have /will:

1) LSD - £1.50 for a DVD rental from the library, and I need to buy milk when I do school pick-up.
2) Collected more library books for free entertainment and cooking inspiration.
3) Rice pudding cooking in slow cooker.
4) Will make bread later when oven is on for dinner so that I don't have to buy any this weekend.
5) Got more free cinema screening tickets - this one has Gerard Butler in. ( Nom nom - as Fay would say:p)
6) Hokey cokey
7) Cut out MOCs from junk mail.
8)I need to go in the loft to get something for my sister, so while I am there I will look for a sewing machine that I think is still lurking up there. Fingers crossed!
9) Research most MSE way to buy a special rose. T leaves his childminder next week to start school full time. He has been going since he was tiny so wanted to get her something special. She is a keen gardener so I have settled on a rose called 'Happy Child', which I think / hope is quite fitting. Just need to order it now though!:shhh:
10) SCs, checked banking, quidco, daily comps etc

My sister has come to stay down here for a couple of weeks so I'm looking forward to seeing my little nephews later. OH is off out tonight so a girly night with B watching the library DVD is in order.

Happy Friday!
