    Went out in the end and spent more money than intended, not on alcohol though just activities.

    Long weekend of work over now for a month. Tucked up in bed with my iPad. Knew it would come In handy:)

    Nothing exciting to update money wise, just trying to keep everything flowing nicely.

    Three eBay parcels ready to be posted tomorrow and just over £40 requested from paypal. I really wanted to go out for lunch today but resisted and felt much better for not wasting the money. Low spend day of £5 on dessert for a friends BBQ we went to, a drinks bottle reduced for dd2 and some cat food. bargain!

    Well done on the low spend day and the decluttering from ebay. I have some NEXT clothes to sell but hope I wouldn't be wasting my time listing them etc especially as the clothes need ironing!

    I hate ironing, but needs must I guess. I have a few bits to put on eBay again today.Still desperately trying to declutter the house as well as make some cash.

    Tuesday morning. I have the day at home today waiting for a parcel. DD is off to her grandma's so I may have some peace unless dd1 gives me grief later lol.

    I have set myself a mini challenge of not drinking alcohol until my cc is paid off. I have two, one on 0% with £999 on it until Nov 2011 and the other has just under £400 on it not on 0% which will be paid off in full this month.
    I set myself this little target on Friday and haven't bought any wine over the weekend which is great. Should help my weight loss a little bit too, so I need to be inventive and get this balance gone so I can treat myself in the next few weeks.

    Yukkibear I really need to get into ebaying stuff. As my boys are getting older I've got tons of stuff to get rid of-grobags, baby toys, etc.

    My task for today is to get rid of a load of dvds on music magpie.

    I've never used music magpie, not sure why, perhaps it's because all the dvd's belong to OH :D
