Uh-oh! I'm staying away from that place for a little while, i'll end up homeless otherwise.. although i'd be surrounded by pretty things.. no! I won't spend any more money until I know that i can actually do it! But you enjoy it

Money Post

PAD/Spends = £98.99
Groceries = £121.71
Entertainment = £28.26
Purse = Not sure, about £2 I think
Outstanding loan = £811.25

This means that when my Reward payments hit my assorted accounts I can use them to take the loan to under £800

I spent £15.85 today in Tesco - most of it needed, a little of it not

Other news

I'm still essentially housebound and bored out of my tiny mind. Ebay is proving to be a dangerous distraction...

I had a good post day today. I received a couple of paper bundles from Ebay for my crafting and also a teatowel from a recent win on Twitter. Not very exciting, but not being very mobile had meant I had run out of clean teatowels, so it arrived at exactly the right time :rotfl:

The best thing though was my new necklace arrived :j For those who haven't seen it, this is it (Clicky!)

I had been a little peeved, as I missed their 30% off day (Boo...) but managed to buy it when they were doing a free gift with purchase. I wasn't too excited by this as I had received a free gift from there before and it was a nice pair of earrings but not my style (Did mean I didn't have to spend anything on my friend's birthday though ) I was thrilled to receive another necklace as my free gift:



It's a happy shiny day in Fresian Towers :j

Apart from that, not a lot of news here...I've been making more cards (pictures available in the usual place) and have managed to get a little housework done, but it's making me very sleepy.

Hope everyone else is doing ok. Xxx

Yeah for freebies and refunds!! An overall good day!

I didn't manage my last NSD Close to it, but I spent £2.40 in town.

It's almost Friday!x

Hmmm....noticed on the grocery thread that there is a code for 10% off with Pets at Home so have done a Reserve and Collect order.

Our catfood normally costs:

£2.50 (approx) for 950g of cat biscuits
£3 for 12 wet pouches of cat food

They have an offer on for 2 x 48 pouch boxes for £20 (Woo!) and 3 for 2 on their 2kg bags of biscuits. They are normally about £4.50 each.

So, I should have paid £24 for 96 pouches and have paid £20
I should have paid £13.50 for cat biscuits but have paid £9

There is a code for 10% off your first order which takes it from the pre-discount price, so I'm only paying £25 for the whole lot :j

I don't "need" any of it right now, but the cats are expensive to feed so when the price is this good I really have to stock up. We're going to be rationed on the human food for the rest of the month - only 21 days till payday :rotfl:

That's a really good deal on the cat food: you would be mad to pass it up. :T

And as for the gas cheque: woo hoo! DFD in T-minus...not very long now!

Fab spot! Puppy food is on offer so instead of their usual £32 per bag I've ended up with 2 bags delivered to the door for £42. Just need to work out where the heck I'm going to stash it all.
