    Thanks everyone :D

    Put my avon through Friday night got £1159 in orders smashed my target and I think I'm now a silver rep :j which means I get a extra £50 in love to shop vouchers on top of the £25 I've earned last month :D and I think I will get another £60 in vouchers on top of that due to the increase on sales compared to last year :T so I'm so pleased xx

    I'll be making about £268 in commission from this book :eek: but I've bought 4 Xmas presents for all the girls I look after so I only need to buy 5 presents for the boys I look after........I juggle 9 childminding kids throughout the week :eek: no wonder I'm shattered :rotfl:

    My Xmas savings have taken a hit we've bought Abbie her first car :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: got it for £200 but this was budgeted for whilst I was saving up, she wants to leave school in June so this is for her to turn into a project car and tinker about with whilst she was at college and then she'll have a runabout when she's legal to drive :eek: where's my baby going???

    So my aim is to get to £750 in Xmas money by next Saturday :cool: we shall see

    Sun addict we are having my friend and her daughter round for Xmas as they don't have anyone else plus my gran, mil and fil so there will be 10 of us at Xmas dinner :D
