Positive thoughts sent to washing machine, Wow 15 yr old washer thats amazing, I'm lucky if mine last 5 years, but my poor washers do get a battering with hubbies work clothes.
Up early as my back is playing up again, taken some painkillers going to try and take it easy at work, really do not need my back to go completely,can't afford to be off work.
Today should be a nsd, can't think of anything I need or need to pay for.0 -
Ouch to the back ache...I can sympathise with that.
Hope you achieve your NSD today. x0 -
Thanks purplemum.
Yesterday was a nsd, today won't be as I need to pay for DD brownie camp £35.
Recieved £1.50 in clubcard vouchers, going to use them to buy some cup a soups to keep at work for when I have a can't be bothered day, at least then I will have something quick and it will stop me popping to the sandwich shop.
Found 2 items to ebay only 99p things, have taken the photos and will list them tonight.
Have a good day.0 -
Evening,
Pants day at work, but i'm home and not going to winge about it, its nearly the weekend:).
Day perked up when i got home, recieved a £10 sainsbugs voucher from valu£d opin!ons in the post and also some christmas gift tags in the post, also recieved a £4 payment from p!necone and a £5 amazon voucher from another survey company, so another £19:D to add to the 2012 challenge, not going to hit my target, but i don't think i've done too bad.
Have also listed 2 items on ebay and 1 already has a bid, ok its only 99p but its a start.
Paid DD brownie camp money, tomorrow should be a nsd.0 -

Thanks brizzle.
No idea where the weekend has gone, seems to have flown past.
Made £8 on ebay yesterday and spent £8.56 on some top up shopping in sainsbug but used a gift card from doing surveys, so no cold hard cash used.
Really need to sit down this evening look at finances and what need to be bought for xmas.
Have a good day.0 -
So cold today, woodburner is roaring and OH has come home with a couple of wooden pallets that a mate of his wanted rid of, so he is going to chop them up for us to burn:D.
Have recieved a £5 amaz*n voucher from gfk, so a bit more to add to the pot:j.
Have ordered some xmas presents from thortons as I had a voucher code for £15 off a £50 spend, so thats covered lots of aunts and uncles presents, also been thinking about OH teenage cousins, I usually get them a gift card and a small present to open (chocs or small smelly set), going to get the small present this year but instead of a gift card going to write a cheque for the same value, as I was thinking by the time its banked and cleared its going to be January and my budget is a bit better for Jan as I will recieve 2 lots of child ben;):D.
Off to have tea.0 -
That's a good idea about writing a cheque instead of purchasing a gift guard, and I think it will be spent better as they will have to wait for the banks to open again and the cheque to clear.
Mind you we've cut back so much they might only get a small present to open and no cheque from us:o.

Hi PWPS,
Sounds like you've had a productive couple of days
I think you've done well with what you've earned this year and show's what you can do if you put your mind to it
I like the idea of the cheques and may steal that idea myself however I think my nieces and nephews would rather have hard cash lol0
