Hi dfw, your doing ever so well on collecting vouchers. and that good news on the easter eggs aswell, but if i went and got some for the kids now i would probably eat them myself, or let them have them early lol
Have finally subscribed to your diary as i was getting very tired of looking for it all the timePAD Maker0 -
Hi Mandz *waves*
I will post on yours & everyone elses diary before the end of the week lol....i keep grabbing 5 mins then getting distracted!
My savings pots are fantabbydodah! I love them :happylove
I know exactly what is left in each pot without having to use the calculator :T just need to check my bit of paper which lists them all with their account numbers & what each pot is for and see what is left :T
I checked my bank for pending things too and saw that SSE is due to pay me £50 nearly ??? Will put it in a seperate account away from main one when it comes in case they send me a final bill too in all the confusion that i managed to cause over swapping suppliers :rotfl:

Wow, you're doing really well with all the vouchers. :T I fill out surveys as often as I can but nowhere near as much as you. I think that's probably to do with NZ having a much smaller population.
You're very organized. Easter eggs already and at a great price too. I'm sure they'll be much appreciated.Diary: Conquering Debts Once and For All
