Right think I will join in with this

1) only go to sainsurys twice this week after work to get reduced to clear items
2) Plan my menus for at least this week
3) Stash some left over cash from last months wages in my ISA
4) Once I have been paid move £100 in total over to my various non urgent savings
5) stay off the Jaffa cakes :rotfl:
6) try and loose weight while getting husband to gain

Number one as been a killer I have been going down nearly everyday. And the worst part is that I come home first than back in to town a mile and half rather than doing this on the way home and save fuel :eek:

Yours

Hey everyone

Here are my goals from LAST week:-

I am on holiday this week and OH is away on tour, so have a massive list of things to do - really looking forward to pottering about in the house on my own and getting stuff done.

* Do minature top up shop tomorrow then keep to shopping challenge. I am a bit all over the place with this one as OH is not really on board and keeps buying things but then sometimes eats *joint* food so don't really know what to do about this. I've also had to give him £20 from food budget to spend on tour.
Restarted this past Thursday (27th) as it fitted in better with our paydays. Spent over £50 so far but got A LOT of food in.

* If go to visit friends on Tuesday/Wednesday, then spend as little as possible.
Didn't go as I couldn't afford it and I needed some 'me time'.

* Get as much done on my list of jobs as possible so I can have a relaxing week with OH next week
Kind of - list of jobs was very long and unachievable and I'm determined not to feel disappointed with myself as I was on my holidays and have done some relaxing and money saving.

Here are my goals for THIS week:-

* Finishing big house clean and sort out - finish tidying bedroom, dusting, mopping, hoovering

* Finish filing

* Wash outside of car (done inside)

* Gardening (cutting back, planing and barrel)

* Paint cubby hole in bedroom

* Ring vets

* Find some free Fringe tickets

* Glass painting - finish order

Good luck everyone!

Just a little suggestion if you have trouble remembering your goals during the week......email your list to yourself at work and then read it once a day! That is what I have started doing. If you don't have email or work, then print your list out & put it on fridge?

My goals were:

1. Do not withdraw cash for anything until at least Thursday (pay day). DONE!
2. Buy ONLY the fresh veg needed, on list, from Tescos, on Thursday....DONE!
3. Get another quote on fence top trellis installation. DONE!
4. Sort out Lovefilm free trial on QuidCo. DONE! And money tracked too.
5. Do leg work out DVD again, as donated by Fishface69. Erm, yes, sort of. I did do some of it but then was rudely interrupted. Plus it was too damn hot to do it all again! (Excuses...?!)


This week's goals are:

1. Try to generate a bit more money via QuidCo even if it is just searches etc.
2. Try & get some decent exercise....I am hoping it's going to cool down a bit this week <pleeeease>
3. Contact Marbles to make sure they have actually cancelled an account I wrote to them about quite a few months ago...I never got a letter back confirming this.
4. Stick to shopping list on Wednesday when I get fresh veggies at Tesco.
5. Find something to list on Amazon or EBAY.


Good luck peeps. xx

Woohoo! metcheck.com suggests it's going to turn cooler this week!
That means I can get out for a long decent walk without my skin feeling like it's going to burn off my skeleton after 15 minutes.
