Hi everyone, hope you all had a nice bank hol!
Today I've done the following:-
- Found a cool website (thanks to a fellow MS) that I can sell my DVDs/CDs on (easier than eBay and get a guaranteed sum).
- Written a list of things to sell online
- Finally found the cheapest insurance I'm going to get being a young driver!
- Put some silver into my sealed pot
- Bought only a small bottle of shampoo to try rather than a big one (H&S colour, hope it works)
And I'm going to...
- Pledge a few NSDs after advice from another fellow MS!
- Put all CDs/DVDs on above mentioned site
- Make a diary for my spending (again, following a MS's advice)
Oh and before I go... happy Star Wars day! hehe :rotfl:October Grocery Challenge - £67.18/£135
Save up £500 - £0/£500
