Hi Guys, yes hubby got paid thank goodness.
Also having trouble with opinion world, can't log in and havn't had any surveys from them for ages:(.
:DHad a lovely few days with relatives in Wales, only money spent was on petrol, they live in the middle of nowhere, so went on lots of lovely free walks and basically chilled out.
Came back to loads of surveys in my inbox so have waded through those and have been able to order a £10 amazon voucher and £3 to paypal, also recieved a £10 off a £50 grocery shop with Sainsburys, going to have a look and see what they have on offer and try and stock up the cupboards with cereal,pasta, flour and tinned bits, this should then hopefully cut costs for when i get back off holiday and i can then throw a bit more money at CC in September.
Clubcard vouchers also arrived, so i have ordered theme park vouchers, hoping to have a freeish day out with the children as camalot is only half an hour away from us and i will take a picnic, so again only petrol to pay:D.0 -
Well was hoping for a NSD but have spent £12 on last of school uniform and £43 on a Sainsburys shop, lots of flour, cereal and tinned stuff ordered.
Have also ordered a £10 sainsburys voucher from maximiles, hopefully that will arrive in time to go towards next months grocery budget.0 -

Just got back from visiting my Grandma, had a natter and a cup of tea with her, bless her she gets so lonely, she is almost blind now and can't get out much, anyway she sent me home with 4 pints of milk, half box cheerios, diced lamb and a sponge cake, she had had my brother staying but he went home couple of days ago and so was left with these bits that she won't eat, So looks like most of tommorrows meals are sorted, cereal for breakfast then lamb casserole at teatime, will use milk in a rice pud and cake with sandwiches tommorrow lunchtime, good old gran:D.
Postie also brought me a box of cereal to test this morning, scratchies have been done 10p and i have managed a NSD:D.
Decided to be good and not have a takeaway tonight, i'm going to make my own battered chicken with sweet and sour sauce, sauce is a bought jar so not totally homemade, but i'm sure it will be ok.0 -
