3 no spend days
having soup and homemade bread for tea
converted points into money with lightspeed
reworked my finances and i can afford it all but i will only have £1 a week to spend on treats (take a break costs 78p!) - still come september i will have my payrise so there is light at the end of the tunnel.
sorry i digress - i have also listed items on ebay and im waiting now with baited breath from bidding to commence.

feel much brighter today - back to work tomorrow but its money to pay off debt which can only be good!!!!!!

Hello all,

This morning I have -
- done daily free scratchcard
- made a menu planer for the whole of January
- Made lunch using leftover veg from yesterdays roast as a soup (yum)
- Realised a pack of ham I have was meant to be used today so used it all up in sandwiches that have gone in the freezer ready for going back to work next week
- had one of those silly scratchcard things in a magazine that give you an 09 number to ring, but found you can actually write off for a claim number so will give that a go, only lost the cost of a stamp if it doesn't work out.
- was bought a granite pestle and mortar in Morrisons as it was really reduced and was the last one hiding behind something else!

About to make a chilli to freeze and will be putting some clothes on ebay.

Have a great afternoon/evening all!

Meal planning for a whole month - wow, well done you!! Any chance you could list your meal plan to give me some ideas as I am struggling for cheapish meals? Thank you
