Afternoon all!
Another busy few days - its just manic at the moment.....
Didn't manage to log on yesterday so will update you with the past 2 days efforts..

• Got a response from my complaint email to Pizza Hut (had to quibble over using a voucher on the weekend) - they were sooooo apologetic and have sent me a giftcard to cover the entire bill next time I go - I should complain more often!
• Checked banks - not brilliant
• Put petrol in at the cheapest garage but its getting really expensive again
• Walked dog for free exercise
• Do any surveys that come
• Taken lunch to work for the past few days
• Try and be more organised tonight with getting ready for tomorrow
• Pay phone bill - I hate BT...:mad:
• Freezer tea tonight - cheesey bakes aand beans (lovely)
• Move money from savings into current account

That's it for today.... am trying to have a bit of a rest tonight

Hello everyone

I am currently having a largely NSD (is there such a thing??) having only paid a cheque for the final instalment of my eldest DD's school camp money today. (I am hoping that doesn't count;))

Today I:

• had my coffee and lunch paid for
• checked online banking
• scheduled an overpayment to my mortgage (PAD) for end of month
• got together my left over holiday euros ready to change back into pounds tomorrow

Today I will:

• cancel (postpone?;)) my hair cut and buy a home hair dye to tide me over for a few weeks
• eat fom the fridge and the lovely veggie box delivered today

How's everyone else doing??

Hi everyone - sorry I have not been keeping up properly this week MUST TRY HARDER!

Today I:
1) Had a man round to quote about decorating our hall. We have had a water leak and our insurers have agreed in theory to pay out!:j
2) Went to B&Q to look at wallpaper in the hopes of using 20% voucher. So exciting!
3) Went to work
4) Did a small shop in Asda to delay doing a big shop at Mr Ts. Stuck to list, apart from a pair of Wonder Woman pants for £1.50. It had to be done.
5) Delivered my nephew's bday present. Present bought in Jan sales, card from stash and reused wrapping paper.
6) Checked banking, quidco etc

Looking forward to Lost and wine tonight! L x

Afternoon all!

I'm not surprised you couldn't resist wonder woman pants Lurleene!

Today I have:

* walked for 2 hours (free exercise??)
* got paid for 4.5 hours of work, and actually had to work *none* of them (should have more days like that!
* checked online banking
* had free cuppa in canteen

******* got offered new job!!!!!!************** That pays over £3500 a year more than current job - and is only 2 days a week!! Now I think that counts as money saving!

(bit of a free celebration going on here tonight I think!)



SW tonight, got to buy a new countdown (and had hot cross bun to celebrate job, so not anticipating much weight loss, lol!)

Hi everyone :wave:

Strange day here weather-wise - started off looking a bit overcast but then I ended up getting really warm in my winter coat walking to work and now looks like it might rain! The joys of spring!

I'm hoping for an NSD today and so far I've managed a few other wee things and hoping for a few more before the end of the day:

- tied my hair up so didn't use the hairdryer or straightners and used freebie tinted moisturiser :cool:
- hoping for a slow cooked extravaganza at home Smells good, but think we'll end up having it tomorrow instead of (late) tonight.
- leftovers for lunch at work. mmm, tasty. And more of the same tomorrow.
- look into travel and accommodation options for going to my friend's wedding in the summer Still thinking about whether to go tbh, it's kinda in the middle of nowhere and going to another wedding a few weeks later.
- read the MSE email and became a 'fan' on FB:cool:
- pay outstanding electricity bill!!
- catch up with some TV later on and hoping for an early night
- got some 'free' shoes delivered (paid for by surveys!)
- smile that my council tax bill is going to be £20odd cheaper a month this year
- do a bit more of some surveys
- start thinking about next month's Big Shop and try to do a wee bit of meal planning - definitely did better this month than last so we're definitely getting better!
- got some more vouchers for Mr T - don't quite know what we're saving for yet though!

Didn't get round to doing the wedding invite inserts yesterday as I left work with a killer headache and really wasn't in the mood so I'll hopefully get them done tonight too.

Ah well, didn't manage an NSD - had to nip into the shops on the way home. Hey ho.

That's great, Cheery Daff!! Nice one!

Woohoo, mogchops, comps win sound ace!

Hope everyone's having a good evening.

xx
