I'm hoping that I won't have to start working every hour god sends though!
I have ten pounds left in my purse and £10 per day for food and anything else, so if we can live off of the money in my purse I will have saved £20 over 2 days. Thats the plan!!
Cooked sausage chilli with chive and potato mash for dinner, didn't go down too well so we ended up eating cereal, lol!! never mind - had whoopsied chocolate brownies and custard for pudding!
Off to read about how to make money!! (Think I've got my mojo back!!:j)

Found 30p on the side this morning - think it may be one of the kids but never mind
.
Also realised i still have a £10 M+S voucher in my purse so if I get desperate I can use that - although I'd much rather save it to go towards decent bra when I need one!
Have a list a mile long of diferent things to try and sites i signed up to years ago and forgot about. Wooohooo excited!!

There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

Hasn't been too bad today, had to do some food shopping but haven't gone over budget so not too bad. Have been plodding along with surveys and stuff and sorted out some christmas pressies on behalf of my lazy brothers - charged them commission and got cashback on Quidco!!!
On a low point think I'm gonna have to cancel my mystery shop tomorrow coz of the weather.
Never mind, onwards and upwards.

Spent the £20 I saved last month on Christmas crafty things and little one and I have been busy making christmas cards this afternoon, feel all christmassy now!! Spent £8 of my £10 daily shopping budget on a bulk buy of Bold 2in1 but that'll last me forever so hopefully be worth it!!
Just spagghetti on toast for tea tonight and haven't got any butter so can't even make anything for pudding, never mind!
Hope everyone's ok and I'm not being too boring.
