Hi all, I'd like to join in too please-is a great idea and more suitable for me than the threads where people are paying off £30k a year from their mortgage (impossible for me!). So far today I have had leftovers for second time this week for lunch and upped my monthly overpayment by £50. Now off to find somewhere to put my 'saved' little bits of cash......

- My second ever regular overpayment went in today.
- Looking forward to pasta bake for dinner - I made one last week when we had people over and also made an extra to freeze. With any luck there will be some left over for lunch tomorrow too.

This week I have..

• given up work for a few days (holiday) less petrol to get back and forth - £6 a day
• been to tesco, spent £105:eek: but got £9 off voucher(also managed £25 in savings on bogof's etc)
• till spit gave me another £9 off a £60 for next week:j
• have accepted an offer on my dad's house so he can give me the £17K he owes me when he completes!
• used homemade weed killer of salt/boiling water - much more effective than commercial stuff and only 23p + elec to boil the water
• updated all surveys
• had a smaller portion of tea than i usually do - this is two fold - it costs less and i weigh less (fingers crossed!):rotfl:

I'm hoping for the rain to go away soon.. i want to be able to dry my washing for freeeee!!! i only have a heated dryer and it's rubbish at drying a large load of washing..

Today for me:

* I used a dominos discount code (but as they are so dear it is a funny kind of MS )
* drove home at 60
* only put in 2l at expensive petrol station when orange light came on
* referred DH to funky pigeon so I get a £3 credit and his father's day card was half price (the freebie code no longer worked )
* used a card from my stash and recycled a bottle of booze as gift for neighbour

Today:

• Recently I bought some cube furniture for the DDs bedroom and then got very cross when I found out that the cube holes aren't standard size. The cheapest ones I could find to fit them were £17 each, and I need 8! So today I covered strong cardboard boxes with lots of pretty wrapping paper to make my own cube drawers. They're not very professional, but they were a labour of love, and they are at least unique! And cheap - total cost £24.50 for the lot, including glue and sellotape.
• I made chicken noodle soup tonight with sugar snap peas and coriander from the garden. Pudding was strawberries from the pick-your-own farm we went to yesterday. Yumm.
