Cleosmum

• Checked banking
• Washed and airer drying
• Checked banking
• Spent 75p on reduced bread
• Did bit more spring cleaning
• Got elec bill, still trying to work out WHY my bill isnt reducing - Im paying £100 pm and its not reducing the amount I owe at all, and SE just say keep it at the same amount.
• Cleaned out the rabbits litter tray, saves so much now we have convinced him to use it! lol
• Talked nicely to my car, which isnt happy, central locking up the creak but at least she is just about plodding on! Got about 6 months more I reckon
• Checked jobs websites
• Received clubcard vouchers for DS and DH to go on stadium tour for DS birthday treat next week - was getting a bit concerned as I ordered them ages ago, for some reason they went from Crawley to the southwest via Tyneside :think:
• Received clothes order from BHS, all sale stuff and used a £5 off code posted on MSE...and got free del for spending over £25....all for the kids mind, and they are happy

And we are going to eat out tonight with our pizza express vouchers, so wont be using food or elec here.

Hi everyone :wave:

Just the usual mid-week stuff from me:
- Took lunch to work. Did go to the pub at lunch but boss was buying!
- Came straight home and didn't wander around the shops en route even though Debenham's window was looking appealing
- Did a bad thing and phoned an 0870 number (should've waited till the weekend) but got a letter saying my credit card application was 'not able to progress' (after one in Jan saying it had been approved). After about 20 mins trying to get through to someone they said it was because they never received my signed confirmation so they'd abandoned my application! So, now I have a new number to call to request that they re-open my case, re-issue the forms I need to sign and re-send them back! Fingers crossed the 0% APR for 15 months offer is still available by the time it's all re-done and dusted. Boo.
- Must do my ebay listings
- Staying in tonight

Catch you tomorrow xx

Not been very good this month but I am always weak in february. However I haven't touched the cards for three months now and have made some visible impact with the overpayments.

Today I have / will

• Got dressed up to go out instead of trainers and jeans so felt good about myself.
• recieved refund from littlewoods after they stole money out of my account a few weeks ago , will be closing that account !
• completed a few surveys
• checked online banking , had hoped for better but it is february.
• hokey cokey
• looked at part time college course to increase my knowledge base
• picked up newspaper left on bus
• heating on low.

Tommorow i need to ring energy suppliers , i am in the middle of switching and both companies have taken payments for electricity and nobody has taken payment for gas !

Can I be really nosey/cheeky and ask you all what 'hokey cokey' is cos I think I'm missing something?! I've seen hokey cokey mentioned in quite a few posts as a money saving thing, and I'm assuming you're not just putting your arms and legs in and out and shaking them all about?! I'm keen to find out if I have ben hokey cokey-ing without even realising it - now that WOULD be a bonus!!
