The Ultimate Incentive to get debt free… again. Dinah & NIM go head to head!

Flower08

Just a though Dinah, but have you looked over on the Old Style board for tips on reducing our shopping costs? They have some brilliant ideas over there, I quite often lurk over there looking for cheap and healthy meal ideas.

Not that we like to spend a lot on this thread or anything (ahem) but has everyone seen the £5 Debenhams voucher on the grabbit board? They email you a £5 voucher valid for another 2 weeks with no minimum spend. I've been looking on the website and there are loads of nice gifty things which you could get for free or for a couple of quid - I've got three friends' birthdays this month and also plan on getting a few Xmas pressies

Excellent, I'm going up to Cabot Circus in Bristol next week, will use that voucher - thanks for the free fiver, Tete en l'Air :T

And I didn't even know there was a grabbit board - I think I could become addicted to all this voucher and money-saving stuff.

Oi whos being accused of not pulling their weight. I'm sat here in the very cold, unfinished lounge with no floor writing thank you cards for wedding gifts while you chat to your mate drinking wine and planning sun holidays in the heated warm cosy kitchen. :(

And now, even after I make them a "perfect pudding" I'm banished back here again

Erm, yeah, I still don't think that pudding is all that but you like it and thats what counts. And you OFFERED to do the thank you notes... Stop making me out to be an evil wifey!

Well you do put up with me, but it is very cold, does anyone have some gloves to fit a Chilly Clumsy Irish Man? :snow_grin:snow_grin:snow_grin:snow_grin:snow_grin

Oh god, had to laugh at all the OH stories! My OH is terrible for stuff like that. He's more for wailing 'Don't LEAVE me' when I'm walking ahead of him or if I walk out carrying something to save putting it in a bag loudly declares I 'need to pay for that'

Poor NIM! Think you need a slanket!

If you do post your shopping list Dinah, I'll try my best to help out in regards to cutting prices a little I second Flower though about the OS boards, they're pretty fab for ideas like that.

Is anyone watching Don't tell the Bride?? The Mother is bleedin' bonkers! But the hubby to be is so cute bless 'im

Thought I'd update you on the pups too. OH text me at about 6am yesterday to say she'd gone into labour and it wasn't until midnight I got a 'puppies!' text :eek: Last count I heard was 7!! Will post a picture when I've got one but with moving it'll be a couple weeks till I see them. And I'm a little worried OHs Mum will be so busy with the pups she won't be able to come see the house. Which I completely understand but OH is feeling a bit neglected by his family atm :undecided

Flower08

Aww 7 puppies!! Will you be having one of them?

Aw congrats on the pups - would love to see a photo

Am watching DTTB. The groom is brill - very romantic I think

The mother is horrible
