I did! I layed them out on the pavement and put the dyson over them rather than using the nozzle bit!:rotfl:

Smoked cigarettes brought back from hols by my mumfor free
Went to the spa - part of the hotel jacizzi molton browne products for free
Went for a cheap pizza instead of the chinese resturant for lunch (15 in stead of 40)
recieved 70 quid from my dad & grandad "for lunch" :eek: certianly not :A
sold a book on greenmetropolis, and one top on ebay , other 2 tops being bidded on

my mum tried to give me the £40 she owed me but instead I gave her my visa statement and asked her to pay the money into the bank for me ( i would have spent it on crap it I'd have taken it off her)0

I'm having a brilliant DFW day! Not only have I not been out to the shops for milk (and come back with half the store) I'm also feeling pretty virtuous about the following:
1) Have sold a ton of stuff on ebay and Amazon - target up to end of May £75 (which I thought was ambitious for a week, so gave it a go) Actual current sales? £98.67 and that's with fees and postage off!! I rock!
2) Cleaned bathroom with soda crystals and Lemon EO. Bathroom smells gorgeous and I don't reek of bleach.
3) Did a massive cookoff yesterday so I've got HM readymeals sorted fro the rest of the week, also looked through cupboards & freezer and shocked myself at how much there is left, esp as we've been living out the freezer for the past 3 weeks!
4) Went through my old bank statements and realised the bank have hit me for £230 in charges which I intend to claim back. Didn't realise it was that much!
5) Put my *free* comfort pashmina round my shoulders when it got nippy instead of putting the heating on. Small I know, but every little helps!This year I'm getting organised once and for all, and going to buy a house with my wonderful other half. And that' s final!
Current Pay Off Target : £1500 :mad:0 -
1.did another clear out and found yet more toletries all of which will be used
2. spent so long gardening- just drank drinks without buying any milk
3. cleaned some of windows so no need for window cleaner
4. used vouchers when i went shopping- would have saved more but supermarket sold out of other products
5. applied for account to get more freebies0 -
