Todays mfw related stuff ...
- picked up a mystery shop for tomorrow which will earn me £8 and is really easy
- went to dentist / made another appointment and one for ds
- have done an online food shop for delivery tomorrow, will be using one of my dtd vouchers and should earn me another £15ish back
- didn't give in to ds when he wanted a monthly subscription to club penguin for £3.95 ... talked about legoland / chessington / harry potter dvd etc and that he had had far too much already this week
- have done a matched bet for tonight, only a very small one but they all help, will update later with how it goes
- attempted all surveys from my inbox, managed to complete one out of 5
Tomorrow ds is going to holiday club in the afternoon, I need to do the mystery shop at some point and will use the time he's out to get some serious housework done. His dad phoned tonight and asked to change a couple of weekends coming up, he is best man at a wedding in a few weeks apparently so wants a different one. Maybe thats what ds overheard, maybe its not him getting married after all :cool:Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
