    Hi everyone...hope you are all well...
    Not a lot to report in here today....I'm happy though as my tip made it into Martins e-mail!!!
    My microwave is now fixed and ready to do battle again..so ..all disasters over for this week I hope.Spent a little today £13 on prescription and £10.41 shopping and that included toiletries for holiday..so that's good really!!!
    I'm off tommorrow so will have to nip into town and get a new battery in my watch and a new strap on husbands...I also need a zip up hoodie type thing to travel on the plane this will also be worn as a work jumper when I get back..hopefully will find something in the sale..I still have money left to buy these items.
    Thursday I'm having my hair done and need to pick a sack of dog food up ..must remember to phone the vet for the dogs tablets as well..I think that's about it for now

    Happy hoodie hunting, it felt really cold today in town.

    Sounds like you have a busy few days ahead.

    Hi everyone:hello: :hello: hope you are all well:p :p:p
    Had an allright day today;) ;) got plenty done :j :j We went into town and I had a battery put in my watch £3.50...I went into Evans and bought a pair of combat pants, a T shirt and a hoodie....those will be my travel clothes for my holiday...£47...I will then wear them for work when I get back so they are not wasted.:T :T :T
    I've remembered to ring the vet for the dogs prescription..I get 3 months worth at a time so that I only pay one dispensing fee(cos I'm tight)..:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: My darling husband paid for lunch for us..so that's good...no unexpected spends today ...as I've had the money for those for a couple of weeks..I also have my money to have my hair done tommorrow...which has to be done as I look like a ragamuffin:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: looking forward to that!!!
    Made myself £20 on quidco last night(£30-£10 staked) on bingo..I played my £10 deposit and £10 bonus..then came off and it'd tracked so that looks like it will be ok...so that'll be a little more off debt when I get it...I've also got another £12 in £2 coins..so will alter my sig...£72 since christmas is quite good...so am pleased with that;) ;);)
    All in all not a bad day..tommorrow I have to get the dog food and will drop my cheque off for feb subs...think I'll be nearly organised then!!

    Hi everyone:hello: :hello: hope ou're all well and not too cold..this weather is awful:eek: :eek: :eek:
    Well I have been very busy today:rolleyes: :rolleyes: spent a fortune but all budgeted for:T :T
    I went to get the dogs food (24.99)...then on to the hairdressers only to find I was nearly 2 hours early:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: sure I'm losing my marbles:rotfl: :rotfl: so went to drop off dog food at daughters and had a nice chat and cup of tea...nipped home picked my subs cheque up and the all night money(£480)...dropped that into the office...then off to pick up the dogs tablets(67.82)..for 100 days worth..as I won't pay the dispensing fee 3 times...:rotfl: :rotfl:
    Then back to the hairdressers...where I was pampered...full head colour,highlights cut and blow dry...£35...bargain...I usually pay £70 for this at another hairdressers..so I will be going here from now on and it was better than the expensive one..
    Glad this lot was budgeted for...
