    Tescos shopping done, car filled with petrol, and just got a few phonecalls done that needed doing; have phoned the ex-mil to sort out them seeing ds but got her voicemail so will have that treat to look forward to later instead :cool:, phoned up and got an up to date mortgage balance, phoned up about a pension that I have lost all my paperwork for and also cancelled my old life assurance, saving me £20 a month :T

    Hummmmpppphhh I didn't get one...grrrr:o But, I've run up £400 on my account so probably better not to have one;) I've just been eyeing up more boots - I returned some the other day as I refused to pay full price. Still, there's nothing I need, I just love the bargains and the fun of having the first vip slot - enjoy:D:D
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    Ds is making christmas biscuits (and destroying my tidy kitchen in the process :D), I have sorted a couple of cupboards while he's doing it; I have discovered I have 2 bottles of shower gel, 2 bottles of shampoo and 7 bottles of conditioner :eek:, so at least won't be needing to spend on any of those in the new year for a bit :)

    I also have 5 bottles of dettol anti-bac surface spray too, left from the tesco offer last year, so again, that should see me through 2012 :D

    I am aiming to sort all cupboards / drawers this holiday, see what can be ebayed / used up / chucked out and start the new year organised and ready to go on a moneysaving mission again :)

    I love it when all the cupboards are sorted out and I know exactly what I've got. Tidy cupboards = tidy mind ;) I will do mine next week. I'm full of good intentions at this time of the year :D
