HI,

Couldn't see this already so thought I'd start it today.

Not done much yet -

Sold 3 more Amazon items so will be posting them later.

Am about to make fairy cakes with dd to take to friends house rather than buying goodies, which is what I would have usually done - entertainment for dd and money saving!! :) Going to partially cook baked pots for tonight in oven at same time...

Got free veet sample and used it - savings? YES will not be using them again OUCH OUCH OUCH!! :eek: Need someone to rip out my hair if I'm going to do waxing! Wait too long and then do it too slowly.

Hope to do a few more things today - take photos for ebay sales, research starting prices and not be tempted to bid on anything else! :)

Sea xx

    Well. I have bought lunch & dinner with me today (out tonight, so thought I would be sensible and eat something beforehand rather than drinking on an empty stomach....)

    I've listed 2 books on ebay.

    Thats all really...

    Off to see if I can get some travelling bits at lunchtime - thanks for the tips on where to look for bargains!! I've got quite a list, but have saved £240 from my 2nd job (and can always dip into my Travel Fund if needs be, but that should be plenty) :eek:

    Hopefully shouldnt spend too much tonight.....

    Payday today. Whoooo!!

    I'm going to post an ebay parcel in a little while, plus have cancelled dinner with my mate and am going to just have drinks instead. So that should save some Ca$h laters :D

    Oooo and reduced OD1 this morning, OD2 will be reduced 2mw when I have my poor sick car back!

  • Had pack lunch at work and a no spend day YAYYY Also, after reading posts on here about how people have nabbed free money from banks, I opened A&L current account to hopefully get £50 from quidco and £50 referrer fee. Also registered for First Direct for the £45 from quidco and the £50 from First Direct. Not confident will get cashbacks though as it's not being tracked! :rolleyes:
