Thought I'd pop up and say :hello: Wouldn't it be good if you could send your pets out to work

Hear hear! earning their own money instead of spending ours! What a marvelous idea. I will put it to the Captain in the morning.

Morning, thanks for everyones comments, am trying to think of ideas of how they can earn their keep :rotfl:

Grr this morning Oh being a right !!!, no motivation to find a job it seems or go and sign on to see if he is entitled to JSA, so angry :mad: fed up of nagging and asking same questions every day just wish he would take on some responsibility. Money wont last forever and cant afford to support him, And breathe.

Moneywise £1.75 received from Quidco so that has been transferred to fun savings. £30 sofa payment out today, a NSD and lunch bought in Also nearly up to £40 payout on onepoll so hoping to get this within a week or so.

Good and bad news today.

Good news is that £100 landed from paypal so have transferred to OH. 60p also landed from topcashback so that has just been transferred to fun savings. The best news is though that OH may have a job Got to wait for his licence to come through but looks promising

Bad news is that yesterday wasnt a NSD as bought 2 mags, bread and some washing powder. But today is a NSD.

The worst news though is that our internet connection has been down at work all morning which means I have had to resort to doing some filing Luckily back up now so the rest can wait till it dies again :rotfl:

Morning world, maybe a NSD have some food in but not a lot so may go and get few bits later. Need to do a fresh grocery shop this week so may wait and do that tomorrow.

Free listing on ebay this weekend so must get some bits on. OH did some training this morning for potential new job and seemed to go ok. Best part is that its delivering horse feed so can get a discount on it, result

Good morning, sneaks in as a non DFW weekend

Saturday had farrier for hoss, £20 but already budgeted, it was her first time and considering she has only just learnt to pick her feet up she managed to get all four feet trimmed Then went home and moved bookcases downstairs and wardrobe upstairs, only been like that since moved in over 1 year ago but logistics at the time prevented us from putting them where they should be! Was so very tired so ended up with a takeaway

Sunday even worse and went to Ikea :cool: Got some more bookcases and a coffee table, finally our house resembles something of normality downstairs, well it will be once our plumber comes on Thursday and removes some old piping. Slowly getting there. £245 spent in Ikea :eek: and put this on the credit card Had £5 in credit so only £240 to find to pay this off. Have £30 odd in fun savings so will use this to pay this off so dont incur any interest. £30 due in from cashback and then my extra salary increase is due end of this month so will have that cleared by end of July so shouldnt incur any interest charges, phew.

OH has meeting at JSA today so hopefully be able to get some money while he is awaiting licence to come through before he can start full time work. Still awaiting payment for outstanding invoice and hopefully may have some more work lined up as well.

Nothing listed on ebay this weekend, missed free listing which am gutted about, but will promise to do next time. I did find a few more bits though to sell. And chucked out some carp as well, like an ancient fondue set which was OH's and will never use, have hidden it at the bottom of the bin so he doesnt notice

Not a NSD today as need to get some bread but £1 max spend. Must reedem myself this week as will be an expensive one. OH has funeral tomorrow so need to find some money to put towards flowers, he should have enough fuel. Thursday is plumber so need to find some money to cover that as well. Oh joy :cool:

Ikea, the place where the trolleys are a must, we all follow the lines on the floor and spend a bloomin fortune :rotfl:

I was in last Sunday, managed to only spend £29 :j

Baldybear

Zepsgal you have way more willpower than I do in Ikea

So not a bad day today, a NSD, lunch bought in, food organised for tonight and an ebay parcel to post.

Money not as bad as could be. Forgot I had expenses owed so that was paid today £131 so that has been sent to the Ikea spendy card. So now £109 outstanding, hope to clear this by the end of the month. Leaving my £25 holiday spends in account at the moment. £50 spent out of joint a/c today to put towards flowers but have enough in there. All expenses have gone out of current a/c and only £310 in overdraft, considering my facility is £850 really pleased So come in next few months with increased salary should be able to decrease it.

OH signed on yesterday maybe get a few pennies from it, wait and see. Just wish DVLA would hurry up and send his licence then he can start full time work. They have banked my cheque so know they have at least got the paperwork!!

Rejigged joint account budget for next month as upped groceries to £150 from £100, but because I had overbudgeted for some things like £20 for tv licence and its only £13, it only makes a £1 difference to this month so really happy with this as dont need to find any extra money :j
