Monday morning and back to school!
Ebay sales are now up to £63.50:) Just a few more days until the listings end, so I will be able to see exactly I have made then, once fees and postage have come off. I am still hoping that I will get more than that as I am not that far off my £80 target now.
Will be nipping to the shops at some point today to buy milk and bread.
Managed NSD 16 yesterday:) But it all starts over again today!
Lots to go out today:
Bt DD - £39
Cubs Fees - £14
Panto Tickets - £27 (with cubs and beavers)
Raffle tickets for school - £3
Trainers for DS2 - £35 (ex bought them, I have to pay him back)
and then what ever I spend at Tesco.
Plans for this week are:
Monday: Cubs
Tuesday:
Wednesday: Haircut (at last yeah!) and me Cinema in evening
Thursday: DS3 dentist, DD parents evening, DD Beavers
Friday: Breakfast with mums from school
Need to fit a proper food shop in there somewhere!
DS3 is on Inset today and has a halloween party at cubs tonight, I need to take in a plate of food!
I will only be able to manage one NSD during the week as I have lots to pay out for, but I should be able to manage sat/sun so maybe 3/7 for the first week hoping next week will be better.
Off to have a bit of a browse....November NSD's - 70 -
Morning! Mental body clock again! I will be going back to bed later to catch up on missed sleep!
Ebay sales now at £75.09, so am almost there:D Looking very good to reach my target!
Food shopping last night while DS3 was at Cubs....Total spent: £23.55, this was for food/toiletries/household supplies and cat food.
NSD planned for today. Will be foraging in the depths of the freezer to find something suitable for dinner.
All kids finally back to school today and I can start getting back into my routine again.
Started to tackle the cupboard under the stairs yesterday and it is going to be a long job, still, at least I can get into the front part of it now:)
Need more tea so off to make another cuppa, have a lovely day everyone!November NSD's - 70 -
Morning:)
Ebay sales now at £86, so I have reached target! One item finishes today and the rest tomorrow I think. So they could still go for more money.
I am having my hair cut today then off out to the cinema later. An appointment with DS2 head of house straight after school, so will try and get all my jobs and housework done first thing this morning.
Quidco money has arrived in my bank this morning of £10.18, I wasnt expecting a payout until next month so this is very handy.
Sorted though some more paperwork yesterday its amazing what rubbish you hold on to! A huge pile of paperwork now for shredding!
Have a good day all xNovember NSD's - 70 -
Morning all:)
I am really pleased with haircut yesterday, she always does such a fab job and reasonable too:) £42 spent. Cinema last night, saw RED with Bruce Willis, really enjoyed it, total spent £2.60 plus £10 for sitter.
Spendy day again today, so no NSD for me again! Ebay listings ending this morning so hoping everyone pays me quickly! Total now at £118:D
Off for a browse and another cuppa xNovember NSD's - 70 -
Morning!
Got loads done yesterday! Downside is I spent loads too! Spent £17.67 in Tesco, Total now spent £41.22.
Ebay listings ended yesterday and sold at a fab £144.80:D Have paid all ebay and paypal fees and withdrawn £134.18 into my bank account. I need to take postage off this but I think that will be about £18 so I am very happy with the amount left.
I will leave another week or so before I list anything more.
Off to breakfast with mums from school this morning, then post office later and Tesco again, to buy food for over the weekend. Not sure how much this will come to but hoping not too much.
Planning two NSD's over the weekend, as I need to catch up so I will achieve the 13 for this month.
Have a great day everyone xNovember NSD's - 70 -
Morning!
Spent £23.20 in Tesco yesterday which brings my total spent for the month up to £64.42, leaving £205.58 for the remainder of the month.
NSD for me today but lots of housework planned. Need to get up to date with the washing as the pile is huge! Not my favourite job but weather looks good today so should be able to get it on the line to dry.
Have a lovely weekend!November NSD's - 70 -
Spent all day listing more things on ebay and offering up loads of stuff on freecycle. I can't quite believe how much I have got rid of on freecycle today! Most things are being collected tomorrow I have them all stacked up in my front room waiting to go. This makes such a huge difference to my under stairs cupboard as I now have loads of space!
Also got washing dried on line today, got it in before it got damp again!
Feel like I have had quite a productive day all in all!
I am hoping the ebay stuff sells:) Would be good to make a little more money:D Pay that debt off quicker!November NSD's - 70 -
