  • Well it was my last day at work yesterday and the lovely ladies I worked with bought me a box of chocolates and a £10 book voucher - as I'd be buying books anyway I'm classing it as money made.
    Spent last weekend sorting out stuff for a car boot but not sure whether to do one tomorrow as the weather is so hit and miss!

    Just started cashback-ing - makes me feel less guilty when I impulse buy!
