Fresian's Final Push...Mooooving Towards Freedom

mooomin

I'm back!

I feel less spewy, but then remembered about £100 I spent in Monsoon and felt a little ill again Still, I have remembered to put in a Quidco query about the £5 cashback I'll be owed, so that makes it better. Doesn't it?! I have been needing to get a new coat for a while and ordered two from there so will only be keeping one. At £50 each it seemed rude not to try them both on.

Must. Stop. Shopping. Online.

Off to take advantage of Mr Fresian being out by putting on a cheesy film and making [strike]a mess[/strike] some cards. Cheerie!

You'll be glad to hear The Gyle is chaos!!
Went along and was lucky to get a space - had to sit in a queue to get out and the traffic was as far as the Marriott for getting in!!
Walked into M&S and walked straight back out, pushing and shoving I don't do!! :mad:

I did however find some new things to buy in Boots including an ELC Happyland toy for my niece for next Christmas

Get Well Soon FF

Morning folks

Mr Fresian's snoring is operatic tonight so I decided to get out of bed and get on my way work-wards as it's a bank holiday so every hour I suffer through with my cold is worth double-time. I could cheerfully kill him though - I'm exhausted!

Money

Thought I should post this as it's been a while since I thought about it. So much for not using the credit card...:o

PAD/Spends - £200
Entertainment - £50
Groceries - £128.26
Savings in ISA - £88.18
Savings in VSP - £50.05

I now have an overdraft of £595 to clear (Bah!) which is from Mr Fresian's student overdraft expiring, but I think this should be done by the end of January. I'm PADding between that and my ISA at the moment - PADding to it doesn't reduce the daily fees so unless I'm paying it off in a lump there's little point

Morning folks

I've been up since 5.55am (Gah!) and have finally managed to book Travelodge rooms for myself and Mr Fresian so we can have a few days away in June. We're off to York again, hurrah! Total cost of a 3 night stay? £37.50 I'll be taking that out of my ISA savings. I now have 6 months to save up money to cover petrol and food, and have £50 of Pizza Express vouchers already that we can use to eat out with

The only potential issue is that I have no time off booked for when I have the rooms I'm hoping to sort that when I go to work today!

Yesterday I did four hours at double time and have another 10 hours at double time getting paid in January, plus whatever I do next week (Two bank holidays) in overtime. If we assume 20 hours at double time then that should be about £440 before deductions for national insurance, tax, pensions and student loan contributions, which isn't too bad really.

Money

PAD/Spends - £218
Entertainment - £50
Groceries - £128.26
ISA Savings - £89.17 (Minus £37.50 for Travelodge booking, you save £2 if you pay by debit card)
Overdrawn by £594 at the moment.
I currently have £99 put aside to cover sales spending. I know it's been more than that, but still have many things to try on and therefore to potentially return!!

One final night booked as a wee surprise for Himself - going to try and get tickets for the last game of the season and then we can stay over instead of doing a day trip. Hurrah!

Souk08

Yay to weekends away. That's on my list for this year big time too!

£14 refunded onto credit card (Shoes didn't fit)

Also need to get £24 refunded onto my debit card.

Bored of having no money now....

I know that feeling!!
I'm skint until February payday and thats not until 28th January - I blame me for having a huge amount on my pink friend and wanting to pay it all off in 1 go!:eek:
The upside is - At least I can say I've no debt now
