14.1.07 What small DFW/MSE thing have you/will you do today?

hypno06

Morning peeps! Almost half way through the month already, and heading (finally) towards payday for those that have had a long month!!

Today I will be reading through the flylady threads and getting back to basics. Baby steps and not running before you can walk are really important things to remind ourselves of.

Also, hoping for a NSD but DD wants to go and spend her Christmas vouchers in the City, so will have to work hard to resist.

Have a good day everyone!

Taking mum to the supermarket. Don't plan to spend much but she usually gives me any surples Buy 1 Get One Frees. I can get my petrol there too (cheaper, and I get nectar points). Then to my mum's house for a free Sunday lunch.

Will probably go to pub later as it's a friend's birthday - BUT I'm going to drive and I'm working early tomorrow so won't stay late. Plan is to spend not more than a fiver on a coke for me and a drink for the birthday girl.

Just checked Ebay - my free stuff that I'm selling is currently at £21.97 + P&P with a few days more to go and plenty of watchers. Would be nice to hit £40 on there.

I have just applied for a Nectar credit card via freefivers. You get £25 cashback and then 1000 extra nectar points the first time you use the card.

Another day of packing today ( found a "ebay box of stuff undewr the bed Id forgot about yesterday!) and meal planning, as we expect to be moving this week, Im just using up & possibly buying a few things from costcutter as they have some stuff on £1 specials which I guess we can use this week.

Other than that, filing, and sorting out my b/card statements.

LookingAhead

Doing searches on QuidCo & entering comps on Pigsback.

Going grocery shopping later and have to try & keep this to a minimum...I will be looking through the cupboards to see what can be used up (like every good DFW should do. )

Am doing some washing that will be hung out to dry in the sunshine and - somewhat more calmer - wind instead of using tumble dryer.

Getting an exercise bike off freecyle, not collecting until tomorrow but seen it advertised today
so have arrranged that

Braving Tescos alone with the boys, who are usually a nightmare because I found a £5 off £50 shop till spit I didn't know I had which runs out today so going shopping a day earlier!

Drying some more veg for soups that I would have thrown out before

Drying is outside rather than on radiators/in dryer

Will put the towel currently in the washing machine on the washing line instead of putting the heating on and drying them on the radiators.
Have sent OH to get minimum shopping for dinner today. (Therefore he pays!)
Was very proud of myself yesterday as I went to Tesco for the weekly shop and only spent £10 instead of the usual £40. I am trying to use up the stuff we have instead of buying stuff whether we need it or not.

Hi there, its a great day in the north east of Scotland for drying clothes, so I've got a few lines full of washing drying.

Got loads of stuff to use up for soup, so I'm going to look up the Old Style thread for some recipes x
