    Thanks peeps!

    I think I am still on track but waiting to find out my payrise cos that could be a big help. I thought you would have all been proud of me this morning...we had no sandwich meat so I ummed and I arred about buying lunch at work, it's only £2 I reasoned. Then I thought of you guys and I made myself a cheese and pickle sandwich instead and I don't even like cheese :rotfl:.

    Bank balance is looking a bit worse for wear at the moment :eek:, I bought some tickets for Jimmy Carrs next tour yesterday as it's in my home town so not got to travel, haven't told OH as going to give them to him at Xmas as a joint present for us both :). Waiting for an £18 refund to come back from Primarni and got some money in paypal but been reluctant to get it out incase anyone else got in touch about dead coral although it is getting a little late for that now. Should have put some more bits on at the weekend during free listing but just didn't get time :o. Will get them on this week :D.

    My valued opinions has updated now so thats £10 towards more Xmas presents. Am hoping to send OH to Morrisons to get some Baileys as well (both our mums like it). It's getting there!

    Very happily married on 10th April 2013 :D

    Shame about all the working at the mo - Woo's right, it's quiet without you!

    Well done on the cheese sandwich - it's the little things that add up! :D

    Boo, I'm hungry now and thinking about a lovely cheese sandwich now! :rotfl:Trying to shift some weight at the mo though so no cheese for me!

  • I think the Baileys in morrisons has gone back to full price now, it was £16 yesterday, but it's still £9 ish in Sainsbury's until the end of today I think. :)
    Just looked on the website and it looks like that's back to full price as well, so the offer must have ended today.
    :o I'm a money wasting expert. :o

    Well the cheese and pickle sandwich really wasn't that bad! Looks I'll be having another one tomorrow though :(.

    Didn't leave work till 7 tonight so not been home that long, OH has got his copy of Black Ops so no surprise a takeaway has been ordered and I'm waiting for it to arrive :rotfl:. Think it's going to be a long week this week and I am working Saturday night but I could do with the pennies so shant grumble. Worked out I still have almost all of this years holiday allowance left (our leave year runs from April-March) but we are lucky that we roll ours over if we don't take it. Might take a day or two off over Xmas but as it's on a weekend we get Monday & Tuesday off anyway - bonus!
