Friday 18th November - What small DFW things will you be doing today?

    My small steps today:

    - I started to eat a box of Ready Brek (out-of-date by 2 years) for breakfast
    - Ate a Sainsburys day-old noodle ready meal for lunch (yuck - it was horrid and sludgy - no more for me!)
    - Deleted some email subscriptions that have come through this week offering me discounts on everything under the sun (and I didn't look at the emails/sites first!)
    - Transferred my instant savings accounts to other accounts with better interest rates ( albeit by 0.8% gross!)
    - Spent ages finding the cheapest guinea pig food and then bought some in bulk (don't want to get stuck if there IS snow...)
    - Worked out a sort of budget for when I try to save 3K in 2012 (I say 'sort of' because I don't have enough surplus cash to save that amount on top of what else I save in a year)
    - Created a spreadsheet to log my 3K Challenge savings
    - Checked my 'selling' eBay items

    Not massive, but a step nonetheless...!

    OK I cook for them but I'm going out tonight to watch children in need as our tv won't work - but I'm not taking any chickens!
    I'm not that nice!!!!

    Well I still haven't put things on ebay, but I did have a NDS and sort the soup out.

    Will make a point of putting the ebay stuff on this weekend. Honest I will :o
    Can't think of anything smart to put here...
