- Received my new Urban Decay eyeshadow, courtesy of Low Spend board, am very pleased
- Also heard from gas/leccy people that they want to put my DD up by £150/month :eek:, not too pleased about that as it's only been a few months since they reduced it...:mad:

Oh ladies, I've been meaning to tell you, got myself a new 'clothes rack' (you know my constant fight with the laundry in the tiny flat and my anger at having to go to the launderette etc) well, discovered on Saturday how good my curtain pole is! Got my tops hanging along the curtain pole with the window open! Wow! Dries in no time! Whatever will the neighbours say:o0

Had a really good day but just now really tired...got that slow cooker mentioned in the MSE weekly email :j so now have to get rid of pressure cooker (it has a name - lack of space ) and possibly some coffee machines @ some point :P. But which ones...all the big ones I REALLY like (2 of them)
Did a few of the jobs and an hours study. Been too hot for me
Food shop came to less than £12 from Mr S but missed a few things (like squash and cheese) so will have to go back another night. :P. Also need lentils but maybe they'll have to wait till next week as really need what spare monies I have for the house insurance (not a lot have overspent on cleaning stuff)..
Lost receipt for mop I got on Monday ...that's £2.50 wasted and £2.50 is £2.50...it's for Mr S...does anyone know if I can still get refund? Or even nectar points?
Did FL stats fae last month I wasn't able to do sooner due to being unwell. They looked bad but about my average (actually second lowest since feb :T) but when you think they took in ECDL fees and a few other things like juicer and stuff they weren't too bad.
Tis about it

hi everyone..
Made it on before 11 pm - yey! Worked very hard today and did 3 hours overtime. I worked flatout all weekend so am going to take some time back tomorrow and get my house sorted a little - had no time to clean do washign or anything on weekend as worked from home all weekend!!
Have done 2 hours last night and 3 hours tonight so thats £100 extra ish so far this week. Aiming for 3 hours tomorro.
have decided to pay what i can off my tesco card each month even though its interest free and i could save the money and get a bit of interest, for me i think seeing the total come down each month will really motivate me most.. so thats the plan!!
Am also going to start stocking up on items that carry Vat to hopefully get myself in a position in jan whereby by shopping bill will be much less each week as i won't be buying cosmetics ( shampoo etc) .
good job i have a big garage!!!
see you tomorrow xBaby due 4th May 2013
January grocery challenge £2000 -

**SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
I do it all because I'm scared.
