You have a PO open on a Sunday?!? Wish ours was, would make life so much easier than trying to get in to it during the week.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

I've had it as cash twice. They don't charge you, but you get hardly anything. I got £3.01 the first time, and then £2.97. Much better value to get the £5 amazon voucher for your efforts.0 -
Phew! I've arrived on your thread. Can't believe you're a MFW now - good work, Mrs!!! Had a quick look at your homepage, your cards look great. I've not done any crafty stuff for ages, but plan to get back into it once i've moved and am all settled.
Can't wait to see which handbag
you buy - i didn't realise Mulberry's are just so expensive...but they are oh so cool

Morning all

I've had a bad night's sleep and am already looking forward to 5pm when I can finish work and come home :rotfl:
It's not all bad news though - I've received my last Ebay payment and have withdrawn £22.28 from Paypal. I've also received a cheque for just over £3 for an off-Ebay sale, so that's going in the bank today. I'm going to leave Mr Fresian the parcels to post and hopefully save on postage too
Both of those payments will be going in the overpayments pot, as they are from extra money made.
Better get a move on - I still have to shower, make lunch, prepare Ebay parcels and hang out washing, all before 7.35 :rotfl:

How on earth do you manage to do all that in the morning?? We are having a good day if we are able to take lunch with us!
I'm much better now than I was, Little Miss gets a packed lunch every day but as for hanging out washing, no chance
Well done you :T
