    Hiya - I do have one but it's brand new so not much in there yet and only getting into the swing of things lol.
    I see you are a lover of the old spreadsheet too - do you still use the pink to pay off the £50 blocks?
    I can't wait to go to the bank next week to pay these pennies in haha! I don't think my statement length will rival yours though lol!
    Will find my diary link and post it up here soon. :o)

    Yep still colouring in the pink squares, Adam on here also kindly set me up with bar charts and line graphs lol!

    Please do post the link for your diary :)

    I'm not sure how to do a link other than copy and paste the address bar - is there a special way to do so it's just a one word link instead of a big messy address? anyhooo, here it is:

    I had to get boring things like dishwasher tablets and I did stock up on some things that were on offer and we always use. Will have to be very strict next week now!

    Quidco were a nightmare for me. I took out new insurance via their site with a 75 cashback due to me - they didn't pay out until march the next year.....they said they had a problem with the insurance company so of course it isn't their fault! Grrr

    I am freezing tonight - kids ar ein bed nice and warm so I think I will grab a blanket opposed to putting heating on - tight or MSE? lol.
