Pigsback comps and Rpoints searches

2 online surveys (plus one I didn't qualify for but still got 10 points)

Made banana bread using up over ripe bananas that would previously have gone on the compost heap

Went for a walk after lunch (free entertainment)

Put away Christmas stuff in loft - all sorted out and together so I will be able to locate it and not have to buy any wrapping paper, bows, cards or decorations. Also made a note of presents before I put them away.

Listed a DVD on Amazon (only joined Marketplace yesterday inspired by the Olympic Challenge thread) - very easy to do.

Started an Ebay box ready for the next cheap listings day though may list some of the 99p start price items before then.

A NSD so off to a good start for the week

I made chicken and rice soup today (although it turned out more like chicken casserole) but tastes great!!! and i've enough left for lunch or dinner for 2 days

I usually use a whole chicken breast, however, it was a very large piece so i cut it in half and will use the other half 2moro nite to make sweet and sour chicken ... i'd never have done that before finding MSE it would all have been in the soup

Homemade bread is cooking in the bread machine and should be ready any minute... just need to resist eating it as soon as its out the machine :rotfl:

So lunch for work is sorted for 2moro, tuesday and wednesday!

Entered some competitions so heres hoping :rolleyes:

need to do some housework but just cant be bothered

All the same its another no spend day so its all good :T

I've just made a big pot of soup for lunches this week and have started a spending diary (again!).

I've fallen off the waggon a bit lately because my Dad is ill in hospital and I've been overspending as a way of coping. Going to try and deal with it in a more positive way this week though so I'm going to a yoga class tomorrow.

* Listed 3 dvds and a book on ebay
* Started the slowcooker on a big pot of soup. Although I went a bit overboard with chopping veggies out of the fridge and didn't have much room for liquid, so will probably end up more stew than soup!
* Went to Tesco for jeans for DH and a newspaper with free yoga DVD for me and did not come home with anything extra

I've saved a fortune in town Ok, I had to spend to get them but with 75% of jewelry all over the place I could hardly not buy. And some were Christmas pressies

Have signed up for mystery shopping in pubs, which will make a teeny profit but it means mum and me can go out for a meal/drinks every so often which is worth more I think

Daily clicks

Umm...there was something else, oh yes, have possibly (needs confirming by the management) increased my work contract
