9.1.07 what small DFW/MSE thing have you done/will you do today?

Morning all!

Today I will be having a NSD and will be putting some stuff on ebay. I will also be looking for old elec/gas statements to work out whether I will be better off switching providers.

Oh, and coming on here, of course, to keep me on the straight an narrow!

Have a good DFW day today and remember that all the little things add up to making a big difference, so never think that it is not worth the effort.

    Morning Hypno!
    Not much on the cards today, but once again have taken lunch to work, am going to look into this mysterious shopping thing, and am going to have a no spend day.
    I'm going to hold onto the ebay listing for today, as apparently there's a 10p listing day coming up on Thursday,

    Good luck everyone!

Got a couple of surveys to do, got to go on pigsback and freecycle, check mystery shopping sites(not heard anything from one in particular for ages). Going to dig my slow cooker out and actully USE it.
