Hi everyone, popping in to declare NSD 11 today.

Was working all day which I think contributed

butdoineedit?

((((((((((hugs Spoon & everyone with poorly pets)))))))))))

Number 8 for me today, although had to try really really hard to resist a takeaway... am getting so bored of jacket spuds & noodles which are the only things i can cook without a kitchen!!!! Still i did it :j

Dopey swoops in!!!

Spoony hope you re feelin more like yourself
I'd like another one for my total pleae!!

and can I just point out that there doesn't appear to be any sort of governing body that recommends on fees so a lot of it may be guesswork??? I always ask now (that I'm broke) if I'd get it cheaper on the web, several times I've saved some dosh as our doggle is a bit accident prone!!!!

Been really busy and had some really orrible worky days, more to come but I will try to be a better attender, promise!!!

Declaring today as NSD #11

It's always tempting to call into Mr M to check for Whoopsies after I've been out with the running club (4.18 miles in 46 mins 53 secs), so I left my purse (complete with all cards) at home.

Tomorrow will be a spend day - need milk, and also meals for DS for the weekend (the only way he'll cater for himself is with pizza and/or ready meals)

Saturday & Sunday will be NSDs though....
they will, they will......
(they need to be if I'm going to make target with any scope of smashing it!)

Hi Dopey! You're spot on, its definately worth a little bit of haggling (not too much as you need to keep them on your side ), some surgeries will 'price-match' internet prices as they like to keep track of the meds you are getting for your animals (in a good way, not a creepy 'big-brother' keeping an eye on you way!). Fees are more set in stone but still often worth a chat with your practice manager or accounts department if you need to pay in instalments or have to have a lot of work done.

With regard to wormers, the ones from vets and pharmacies (the bigger pet shops, agricultural merchants) are all good so shop around, just please dont use the rubbish they sell in supermarkets!

We need to find a new topic - can't we go back to the men in kilts please?! Its turning into a busmans holiday for me on here!

Evening all, managed my 9th NSD today!

I thought so Kate, I deal with vets professionally and so i am party to some of the "trade secrets" Didn't want to say too mutch but its always wortha haggle, I like a haggle and once they know you know its worth a haggle, it gets easier, if you know what I mean!!!!

NSD #9 for me today :j I now have a very clean car and am re-painting the house...all in the name of saving money...more NSDs to come fri, sat & maybe even sun if the milk and bread last...

Evening all! just popping in to declare NSD #9! might make it to double figures this month. did stop at Mr M tonight to get milk - they actually had some of the 4pt 1% left - on offer still at 50p, so I got two bottles. One has gone in the freezer as i don't think even we'll get through quite that much so quickly, goodness knows how long it will take to thaw out though :rotfl: £ came from the OH bread/milk pot though so no open pursey for me :)

Hope all of you that are having rubbish days/weeks have a good one tomorrow, and a fab weekend. I already know I have billions of numbers to check through tomorrow ...on a friday too...groan!
