Evenin all...
Today I have :
used up leftovers in fridge/freezer for lunch and dinner- enough for another dinner tomorrow too!
listed all the stuff we have in to meal plan for the month (think we could almost do the whole month with what we've got save for some extra bread/milk/fruit!)
transfered all extra money from payday into seperate savings account..
applied for a couple of freebies
turned the heating off/down as its getting much warmer....(fingers crossed it stays that way!)
checked and the last book I had on amazon is still on and the lowest price- quite a specialist work book tho so itll be hit and miss to whether/how long it takes to sell!
have bugged mrtyo to get his ebay stuff to his friend who is gonna list it for him!

Hi

Havent been quite so good today. I was having a no spend day until my daughter came out of her last ever swimming lesson. She has finished all of her levels and as of today has passed her gold,silver and bronze badges. To celebrate we took her to Mcdonalds.

Not a major overspend. We now have 23 items listed on ebay as well to end next weekend.

Have a good day

MOOC xx

Not done much today.

• used a 5p off a litre voucher when putting diesel in my car
• fed us all from stuff in the house and avoided the dreaded Saturday night take away
• found a pile of stuff to ebay tomorrow
• arranged for DS to go to DMIL for the afternoon tomorrow so we can ebay like crazy fools;)
• got excited that my ebay items are at £57 with a day to go:D
• Didn't put the heating on until 8pm and then only cos DH was moaning
• Had a good look at the AP site and just might place an order tomorrow if I can use the 10% code on FB

Today I've taken DD (aged 3 & half) to the cinema for the first time at £1 per ticket. She was desperate for popcorn and it cost £4.10 for a bag :shocked:

We only lasted 15 minutes in the film as DD was crying to go home as it was too loud and scary. But I've kept the popcorn bag so if we go again (not likely in the near future!) I can just replenish it with Butterkist bought at the supermarket.

I'd like to be able to make HM popcorn, but it never has the cinema taste.

We tried sainsburys value/basic 'cinema style popcorn' for 98p and it was fab

I took my 4 year old niece to the cinema last week for the first time - she loved it but couldn't understand why we had to watch adverbs or pause it for a break

Yesterday I managed to:
- list some stuff on ebay, including a few big text books
- signed up with Anglian Water for a nice plumber man to come out and fit some water saving devices FOC :T
- cook some lovely cheap meals so we didn't eat out & I can take for lunches next week

Today I will:
- package the DVD I've sold on Amazon. Only listed it a few days ago, comp prize, £6.66 profit
- enter more comps (on a very small roll at the mo )
- stick more stuff on ebay
- package up anything on ebay that sells today (1 thing so far ) and relist the rest
- check spreadsheets (do I really need to say this or is just a given )
- make a list of what I want to take to Spain in big zipped bag thingy & put in the stuff I already have
- price up a board to do jigsaws on
- look for new house phone :eek:
- go to Mr A's and buy £10 worth of cleaning stuff so I can get £5 vouchers from supersavvyme
- check (refound ) stack of birthday cards and take one round to SIL

That'll do for now. Loving this thread Michelle :T

Yesterday I.....

- Ordered £10 cinema voucher from Maximiles
- Made 5 apple and berry crumbles for freezer and a white choc bread & butter pudding
- Spent £120 on a hotel break but I did buy a "top secret one" thanks for people on here for stating what hotel it really was, and got £9 in cashback!
- Ordered some mega cheap train tickets on credit card (so got points!)
- Bought £3 worth of lottery tickets dreaming about the MFW that I could be sooner rather than later....but didn't get a single number!

Today.....

- Walked dog to newsagent instead of getting in car
- Will be making another white choc bread and butter pudding for the freezer (as it was so scrummy and really quick to make) and some choc cookies
- Have paid £20 directly to the mortgage as I worked out that its not that long till payday and we can survive on buying less food this month thanks to my M&S vouchers spent on Friday!

Happy Sunday everyone! :j
