Thanks Pap. I'll probably watch it when it comes on Sky. I think I am in the minority who couldn't stand Happy Feet. I thought it was really boring.
Really fancy going to the cinema now.

Ohh I adored happy feet, but then I do love penguinsI will go and see the new one but I doubt it will be as good as the first, I don;t think sequeal really can be.
Go! Jane Erye's on too which I quite fancy the look of. If only cinema's were cheaper0 -

Have you seen Surf's Up? That's got penguins in it.
I've got my disabled cinema card, so it only costs just under £5 per ticket which isn't too bad. Don't use it enough really. I want to see Real Steel, but it's not out until next month.

No haven't Em, will have to search that one out. Oh the discount doesn't make it too badHere our nearest is Vue which is £7.20 off peak (before 5pm) and £8.40 peak (which includes all weekend) so shocking prices. Not to mention £2.25 for a bottle of water and £1.75 for a fruit shoot :eek:
There are a few coming out in the coming months which is a shock really as its usually nothing until christmas. Its nice though as it breaks up the Autumn
I hope you have fun watching Real Steel :T0 -
:eek: Spent too much :eek:
£2.90 - tablets (cash)
£23.95 - petrol, leaving just under £60 for fuel the remainder of the month.
£19.30 - groceries, 2*fizzy pop, kelloggs mini packs, cup'a'soup, rice milk, reduced flour, milkshake powder (to use up my milk as its unusable after 5days),, pork pies, dairy free spread, bananas, mints, croissants, 3* toys for CSB, pencils for CSB, 2* toothpaste for CSB and a magazine
£8.12 - dinner out
So the groceries were bad as the majority wasn't needed. However it could have been worse as I was eyeing up a dvd and a tree book. CSB is christmas shoe boxes. Dinner out was so not needed but I just fancied it which is naughtyAlso my magazine was £4.99 its usually only £3.50-£3.99
So well and truely fell of the wagon I feel. However it will all be fine I will wait a few days for all my DD and these card payments to go out and then review my budget. I am still hoping to pay £100 to argos min this month :T
Definalty a spends day today :cool:
Edits, more spends... £11.22 for my light bulbs and wipers for my car. Thats it now or you can all come and bop me on my nose0 -

:j to Argos & your listing's.
Have a good weekend.
Thanks Beanie, up to £30 already. I will see how much I get and left in my paypal account after fees before I decide what to do with it. I am swaying between paying it to Argos and covering some xmas gifts with it... Can't decide
So had a spend do today, took £20 out of my account and purchased 2*15kg of dog food £12 (over 1/2 price and will last prob 4-6months) and £3.30 on some dinner as I forgot mine :mad: I have £4.70 left in my purse which I am hoping will cover some envelopes to send my listings. I then have £54.97 in my bank to cover postage etc.
I am however going to spend £13 on myself on Wednesday. I have looked at my crocs and they are £24.99 which I think at the moment is a little excessive so I am thinking about asking Mum for them as a xmas gift. But I need something nowSo I have seen these in the mailer that came through my door the weekend, so I will go and have a look at them and see if they will be any good for me. If not I will have to see if there is something cheaper in Asda :cool:
That will still leave just over £40 for postage which will be more than enough :j0 -
Don't want to go out today so went to asda last night to get some shoes/boots. Purchased some very simaler to the ones above for the same price, but I also picked up some groceries and reduced food so spent £29.19 in Asda :eek: However they had no envelopes to send my ebay items so had to pop into tesco too. Spent £8.xx there on 2 packs of envelopes, 5 birthday/xmas gifts and 2 xmas gifts for Mum. I did think about putting the gifts back but as I saved £13 on those alone and that completes either one birthday/xmas gift if would have been silly. So now I am completely skint :rotfl:
My ebay items are fetching £38 so far which is great, I have about £15 left now to send them but I have my petrol money too if I need to use that. I am hoping for about £50-£100 for this lot so I am on my way to my lower target. Saturday I may list my faulty laptop too as long as I can get some money out of paypal to pay for shipping :T
All in all a good ish couple of days except buying extra groceries0 -
NSD's since the 20th :j
Ebay items just finished on £97.99 :eek: Really, really pleased with that considering they were all destined for the charity shop. Ebay fees are £11.10 for that lot which leaves £86.89. I still have paypal fees to come from that once everyones starting to pay but so far (I have payed the ebay fees) I have £12.05
Still no idea what to use that for, I really want to put it towards Argos after I have paid myself back the postage...0 -
Blimey thats a great result :j
