    Thanks Rupe and Zarzar :hello:
    Thanks for your kind words! Looking forward to hearing your comments ;)

    £50 landed from lovely BB this morning :T I'm really going to miss it when the £5 a day bonus finishes :(
    I'm just playing now - when I should be on my way to work - trying to be an early bird - but there's a famine on "worms" :rolleyes:

    Am going to try for a NSD today, it will be my best chance all week - so really must. A couple of itmes finishing on Ebay today so fingers crossed they do well.

    Damn - didn't win bingo! Have a good day, Mac x

    Good luck for the NSD - I saw you on BB this morning but you left just as I realised you were there. Wasn't being rude, honest!

    Hi Mac!

    I've just read through your diary. You sound like me talking sometimes when you are feeling down about money. I think for all of us who are struggling it's easy to suddenly feel very low because things don't seem to be changing or at least not quick enough. I wish i could press pause sometimes so that i don't have to pay for anything else while i clear my debt. Can you imagine how great that would be? :rolleyes:

    I'm taking inspiration from f_f to tighten up my budgetting skils and from you to get listing on ebay. So, thank you both ;)

    I love the sound of your sequinned leggings. I'm quite sorry i can't find any maternity ones lol

    I hope work's still going well. Have you got any plans for the weekend?
    One step at a time ;)

    Hi miemie
    Didn't notice the chat really, as I was on here too - and don't really chat as a rule - aside from WD and TY!

    Hi Hopeful - nice to see you!

    Yes, F_F is an inspiration on the grocery front. I'm going to Morrisons tomorrow which should help - though an old mand called me a very rude name the last time I was in there!:rotfl:
    I usually do Sainsbury's once a month online, then top up with the local butchers and Asda before work....so I'm hoping I'll save some at Mozzies ;)

    I'm sure your could get some sequin leggings! Try TK Maxx in a bigger size - £9.99 according to my friend (I, of course paid through the nose in To-Sho :rolleyes:)
