Tidy time was a success. I've even done a load of washing and changed the bed. Flat is looking much better now
.
Think I'm going to sit in my freshly made bed and read a few chapters of my book now.
Night everyone

Nothing nicer than getting into a freshly made bed
Letter made me giggle!Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
Glad you liked my letter
. I would love to actually send that to them and see what they say. No pleasant letters from DCAs today - just my new debit card from Nationwide.
Went to the post office to send a parcel for OH. He gave me £10 and said I could keep the change. Crafty so-and-so my OH is. It cost £9.72 to send. He can post it himself next time!!
Received my £5 Amazon voucher from the bingo this morning.

Excellent end to the day - I've just received a £30 Amazon voucher out of the blue. I did a product study/test a couple of weeks ago and thought I was getting a £30 cheque as payment, but they have just sent me the voucher instead.
So I have been on Amazon and have ordered a toy for my nephew and a book for my uncle. I still have £12 left on there too.
My niece and nephew are all done for Christmas now and so is my uncle. I got a few outfits for my nephew through the Tesco Clubcard exchange thing - he's too young to really play with toys at the moment.
I was going to save for the iPod Shuffle that I want to get my sister, but the price has gone back up on Amazon, so I'm going to try and raise the money for that another way.
Night night.

Afternoon all
Redeemed for another £5 Amazon voucher on the bingo this morning. Means I can order another present when that comes through on Thursday next week.
Just arrived at my mum's and I swear there was a man urinating in the car park in broad daylight :eek:. Disgusting creature. He soon legged it when he saw me get my phone out of my bag :rotfl:.

Oops, forgot to post yesterday.
Nothing much to report. Had a relaxing day yesterday and did a bit of pampering. OH has been at his mates all weekend helping him move house, so he will have a shock when he sees me tonight. I actually look decent for a change :rotfl:. Need to make more of an effort with my appearance - it's always finding the time though.
Haven't spent any money for ages, since I started this new diary I think. Going to have to get some petrol and food tomorrow though. OH must be skint as he asked if he could borrow some money (told him no). I have no sympathy for him, he spends his money on rubbish (usually for his car) and going out. All of my money goes on bills, petrol and food. Can't remember the last time I got something for myself.

Forgot to post yesterday too
.
So, spent quite a bit yesterday. Only £10 on some shopping (and OH got £10's worth), but I filled my car up too. Cost me £49 for a full tank of petrol :eek:. My aim is to make that last for the rest of the month. I have got to get to Southampton and back on Friday next week too (hospital appointment :mad:).
So far today, I have withdrawn from a survey site (£10.50 hitting my bank shortly), got free tickets for a film on Monday next week (50/50 - looks quite good) and have cut another £5 from my mum's mobile tariff (only £10.50 a month now).
Feeling very MSE right now.

Got myself a good deal today. My iPod Nano (well, my OH's but I have 'adopted' it
) is one of the old iPods that they are recalling due to a fault. So looks like I will eventually get a brand new iPod Nano :T. Now, if Sony could recall my laptop and LG recall my mobile phone, I will be very happy
.
Redeemed for another £5 Amazon voucher from a survey site and am very close to another £5 voucher on the bingo.
