I never expected to im genuinely surprised but it's just sheer determination :rotfl:

If I hit my target by the the 5th May I'll be putting money by for 3 weeks so we can go out and get some clothes for holiday we are going to the Livingston outlet place so I'm expecting loads of bargains might aim for about £300 for that whatever isn't spent then will be going on the Halifax card as I want a total least £500 cleared off the Halifax card before I go on holiday xx

I've bought the boys all there vests in primark as they were only £1.50 each so they've got a small pile of them, don't need to get Kk shorts as my mil bought him a pile of them from the charity shop and he's that skinny that the shorts that were too big for him in turkey 2 years ago still fit him so I'm saving money there..........how come shorts are so expensive was looking for Xander he wanted adidas ones but they were £20 for one pair yet on the same website I could get him a full tracksuit for £21.24 :eek: doesn't make sense :rotfl:

Need to also sort out Passport as well will get that sent away at the end of the month as need him to get his passport pictures signed and verified its so expensive to do passports !!!!!! :mad:

Working 7am til 6pm :eek: been asked for longer hours don't mind as it's extra pennies I guess but what a long shift :eek: then I do the avon collection at 6.30pm and that takes about an hour and a half so I'll defo be working for my money xx.

Morning :hello:

Transfered my wages to the holiday fund now over the £1150 mark going to aim for £1350 for next weekend........should be feasible as I've got a extra shift today, 4 extra shifts from one parent next week so half of that will go towards the holiday fund and another parents wants a extra half shift next week too so extra pennies for next week.

Still waiting on a couple of avon orders before I can put it through tonight wanting to hit the £400 mark nearly there so we shall see xx

Should be a LSD day as I've got playgroup then after the nursery run I have a hug every pile of washing to sort out and iron whilst one of myindees are having a nap

Managed to get my paperwork finished and submitted to the council so will see how I got on when I go to my meeting on Tuesday xx

Off to dry my hair and get Kk ready for playgroup xx

Morning :hello:

Did my last avon collection before the order needed to be put away we collected £472 of orders :j says I'll make over £105 commission :j here's hoping all the stuff is in stock will find out on Thursday xx

My gran needed her car looked at as the clutch pedal was jamming down so he fixed it for her and she gave us £10 which she said is to go towards our holiday spends :j so I've transferred it straight away to the holiday spending pot :T

Need to be careful not to get carried away next week as the mortgage is due out on Friday so don't want to leave myself too short for next weekend.

We are off to homebargains and the bank as soon as I've hung the washing out as need tins of soup for my cupboard as I have none then I'm off to get weighed and then I'm taking the kids to their dance class then we are going to our wee local cafe for some lunch as it's really cheap and cheerful xx
