Evening, fab bottle of wine, no kids and a great meal :T
I quite like this 'children growing up' lark.
I have retired for a bath and an early night. One way or the other it's been a mad week and a long sleep is required. Never seem to get a lie in, but with kids, dogs, cats, work, there's always a reason for getting up early.
Best wishes to all, Tilly x x2004 £387k 29 years - MF March 2033:eek:

Morning, off for a dog walk in a moment and the sun is out, although its blinking cold - even for hormonal Mrs T.
Just made a £7.71 OP to tidy the account and have received 2 Am@zon codes so another just over £24 added to the pot. Another week of S&S will result in a further £10. 4000 points away from £15 with Tolun@:

Tilly, your Am@zon voucher stack is looking good. :T

Hi US, goodness it's been a busy morning. I haven't sat down since I finished my earlier post :eek:
By Christmas we will have over £320 in the Am@zon pot. Maybe even a bit more and in fact, won't be touching much of that for presents. I think we will probably use it for bulk household stuff if needed. I started in January with the goal of making £500 for Xmas, to make it cost neutral and although we will have used funds from different pots for stuff, I/we made it. I am counting Nect@r, B@@ts, S&S, Tolun@, TCB, £co - I am really proud of this achievement as it has beem made possible by thinking ahead of what and how we are spending. In 2013 I am going to track this cash and vouchers, and I will OP the voucher equivalent.
US you have been a big help in making me think of vouchers and offers, so thank you :beer:
Hope you are enjoying the sun
