    Evening all :D

    It's been a long hard day in Fresian Towers (well, down the mines anyway...only got home 20 minutes ago!)

    I'm about to head to Tesco in a bit to buy month's worth of catfood while it's cheap. Nothing else to report - I'm getting in good habits with NSDs at work, just failing when I need food at night!

    Hope everyone else is well.

  • Now ladies, step away from the terrible puns! :D

    Must get to Teco for cat litter while the 3 for 2 is on. Might skip the food as I notice that once again they have put the price of go-cat UP just before the 3 for 2 offer starts. Grrr!

    Asda have one type of Go-Cat biscuits for £3 for the 2kg bag which is pretty good value.

    The moggies Chez Fresian are being put onto Tesco Finest biscuits as of tomorrow as Go-Cat is £5.30ish for a 2kg bag and the TF ones are £5.40ish for 5kg :D

    If anyone wants to see the cards I made for Souk, click on the link to my homepage from my profile :D I have posted five cards on my bl*g, four are for her (the cakey ones) and the other I made for a friend of mine for his birthday.

    All comments welcome!

    I have no real plans for this weekend, apart from work (boo) and meeting Palema for a coffee (yay) so am going to be in a frenzy of cardmaking to finish the last card for Souk and to do an order of Mother's Day ones for Shaun. I'm hoping to get ten done this weekend, but it will depend on the pesky housework :D

    Money

    PAD/Spends - £70.65
    Entertainment - £32.99
    Groceries - £94.60
    ISA - £781.88
    VSP - £176.94
    Purse - £19

    It's been a pretty good week for spending although I did use my credit card to buy something online last night. Debenhams are now selling MAC makeup (my favourite!!) and I had planned to go to town on Saturday to get a new eyeshadow from Harvey Nicks anyway as I have nearly run out. This way I got to use a 10% off code and get free delivery on it, plus my usual Tesco points for using the card and I will get 41p Quidco :A

    Tonight we need to go to Tesco as I didn't go last night. All we have in the fridge at the moment is half a lump of cheese, some milk and some mayo, so it's time to go shopping again :o

    Due to the lack of food in the fridge I'm going to have to buy lunch today (not a fan of cheese sandwiches) but will go to Morrisons and buy it there in the hope there is some kind of tasty reduced item.

    Better go to work now, have a good day all :D

    See you Sunday
