All the small things - tell me what you have done to be MF today

All the details are here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3143950 pretty much whatever you like by the looks of it... and a body scrub on Sunday...

But as I'll be pretty much house bound and the further I could venture is the supermarket as opposed to town, I wont be able to get it as it says in the small print it has to be redeemed on the day

Iris, why dont you colour your hair at home? It is so much cheaper and I cant really see the difference.. You could try it anyway, as there is a free L'Oreal hair colour here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3130820

Catseyes, Its foil highlights I have. I've asked about a all over colour but been told to avoid as I'm naturally so dark. Thank you anyway

Fair enough, was worth a go!

Today for me:

* drove to and from work carefully
* gave DH details of reserved item to collect from Argoos and options for a single airbed. He has treated himself to an expensive one, but has earnt a £10 argoos voucher, which looks like it has no minimum spend - wonder what I can find to get from there?
* leftovers for dinner
* got DH to pay a cheque into his ISA - not full by any means but to still have savings is great.
* did my timesheet and expenses so I hope to maybe start getting paid this week?
* did my RM data entry
* got DH to post the mothers' day cards so we don't get cut out of any wills
* entered Michelle's comp
* entered my details in an innocent email that offers something small and free for easter - probably a 10p voucher :rotfl: but it will be a nice surprise

It was a pretty useless earning day until this evening.

But overall today:

• dinner was leftovers, made into a pie with mash top
• OP - a miserly 20p
• cr0wdology - 40p/now £1.12.
• Noticed i had enough points in max1m1l3s to claim a £10 sainsbugs voucher. I am not sure they have worked it out right though so we will see what happens. That will go in the holiday savings tin.
• dried towels and one load of washing online as it was so windy here
• remembered to water seedlings - used water kids didn't drink at breakie time.
• written 2 x DY reviews worth 40p.
• NSD

I took my lunch to work... which makes at least 4, if not 5 weeks of not buying lunches at all!

I ate some nettles out of my garden with my dinner :eek: have been wanting to try nettles for a while and as I pulled some up while having a weeding blitz, I thought 'why not?!'. My thumb still stings, from where they 'bit' me, tho.

Ate my own purple flowering broccoli as well.

I think I might hit B&Q tomorrow - they have emailed me a 15% off voucher, but I'm nervous about going as I find it very hard to stick to a shopping list in the gardening section...

• £5.80 paid from quidco
• brought all the loose change to coinstar in tescos and got £13 odd pounds back
• made a £20 overpayment to the mortgage with this extra money
• went to tescos and only bought value items and special offers...got 2 bunches of bannanas reduced for 25p each
• Recycled a present that i had in present box
• was about to buy nappies in tescos but then remembered that they are doing the double up thing next week so decided to wait and save a few pounds
• Currently indulging in a £2 bottle of wine from lidl...not really money saving but better than paying £6 in the local off license

Managed to do a few more surveys. One toluna and two survey network. So i am now at 67,000 on tolooney with loads of surveys open, and £14.70/20 on network, so hopefully payout on both will be soon.

Definitely bed time now though as i am wrecked.

Today for me. I have:

* posted my expense claim
* found the bits of a useless lakeland gadget which I plan to return under their no quibble guarantee (coz it was rubbish - I then dropped it and it broke). Never done this before but they say "no quibble at any time" and their CS is usually fab, so we shall see
* Done my weekly RM survey return and data entry
* collected books from the library and checked return dates to ensure nothing is about to go overdue
* got a refund from the pharmacy as I bought a PPC recently.
* bought a pair of M&S linen trousers and a book for £3 from the CS :j
* found 2 1p coins on the floor (separate places) so they came home and went in the tin
* have packed new glasses to go to optician friend for adjustment (My speckyfoureyes grabbit) :money:
