    Thanks for all the 'Thanks' everyone! :)

    OK, so not quite hit my target on my first day, but I did make £7 profit by selling a headband that I bought to re-sell.

    :rotfl:I read that as £7 profit from selling my husband!!!! This thread is definitely affecting me!!

    Got £3 to add from taking my own lunch to work today. Still not done any ebay listings but will get a few done this weekend.

    Have a good evening folks! I am planning feet up, nice alcoholic beverage and will be watching the Walking Dead at 10pm (zombie series thing on one of the sky channels that hubbie has got me into and it is really good. Surprised I am saying that as that kind of thing normally bores me stiff!).

    Woohoo, finally watched enough videos to get me up to 3000 points on Maximiles, but when I went to cash out for a voucher, I realised that the points are worth more if they are saved up to get a higher denomination voucher. Not sure what to do with them now! We don't really need the vouchers at the moment I guess, we get £70 ish each month from CP and S&S altogether, so vouchers roll in quite quickly in this household :D
    But I don't like to leave points etc in accounts just in case the website goes bust or something. I know it's unlikely, but it has happened in the past.
    Hmm, what to do, what to do!?!

    Saved 19p this PM at a late night shopping event in my village- 10% off in the sweet shop.

    I feel a bit silly counting that but money is money :D

    *BRINGING THE THREAD DOWN POST ALERT!*

    I've had a horrible start to the month; found out today that I will be going to panel re.fostering, with the most likely outcome be de-registration. Im so unbelieveably fed up and angry with the fostering team. Absolutely none of it was my fault but 'incidents' were brought up in court and used against the council to make them look stupid(quite rightly!) and of course the council are looking for someone to blame...that being me. So Im going to be given a huge report to read on 23rd december and I have to report back by 27th. Great christmas! To make it worse I have to go to panel on 17th January, the day my plane get in from Morocco. So all holiday I'll be fretting. If I am de-regestered then I'll lose £1k a month....how am I supposed to make up this shortfall?! So a tad worried about money for the future...why is my life so complicated?!!
    £20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**
