Second Purse Challenge 2012

Quick question about DR....

I referred someone on the DFW board and she PM'd me yesterday to say that she's received her order. Should I have had something from them to say that the referral had gone through and that I can have my free gift added to my next order?

Love the shelving Kerri - I have a table in the garage at the moment, but it is getting a bit full, but have a set of shelves with loads of carp on, so think will make it my mission this weekend to find homes for the carp and start using that for MunniMart - thanks for the inspiration!

Have just put £25 into my 2nd purse:j- so now have £32 there and have £45 left in purse 1 to last til 22nd March, so only 3 weeks :eek:- £15 a week:eek:, yer think that's doable:cool: (fingers crossed)

This week only need to buy fruit, bread and milk so that's week 1 out of the way:T

Well, as planned, I cleared out the balance in my SP on cat food at T3sc0 yesterday..I bought 23 boxes, of which 7 were from SP and the rest from grocery budget. The plan is to buy back the 7 at full price, and the others at a notional £1 . I got 42 points for the purchase plus I used a voucher for an extra 50 points .

I spent some time searching for vouchers last night and have a £5 Mr M voucher and £1 for M&S. I also had a till spit from T3sco with the cat food yesterday - £3 off a £20 shop. I need to use the T3sco one by 11/03. I've put all three vouchers into my SP so I don't forget about them . I'm hoping to pop to Mr M on the weekend to look for bargains .

Mine almost has aisles! Well shelf aisles, but stuff all grouped together like in the SM hehe so I know exactly what you mean I want to show you all a picture, but then realise that that's really sad hahahah

It is sad, but so are we - I got quite excited by the idea:rotfl: It looks great

• While I was wandering around Qu!dc0, I discovered the deal finder for rainforest and decided to look at chocolates (just to see if the easter stuff Ive already bought is the best deal) and I found these and these , which gave me an idea...I usually put £20 in our savings for christmas,and I always get lost because as I buy stuff I forget where I am-so I copied the spreadsheet and renamed it christmas purse. I only had this month in,so Ive spent £29 so I owe the purse £9-but thats already quite a bit for stocking fillers. Next month Im going to buy these for when our Elf comes to stay in December.I'll put them in the spreadsheet and then look up their store prices when they hit the shelves

Great idea polkadot :beer:

I got a letter about it (although I had previously emailed) and it was about a week after you and both ordered.

It doesnt seem to show on your order history at all.

if in doubt, email them - they seem very helpful

I think I may have developed a dishwasher fetish :eek:

Despite saying yesterday, I had too many dishwasher tablets, I got another 2 boxes of 15 in 99p shop.

Made my usual stop at Wilkinsons reduced shelf and they still had their own dishwasher tablets reduced (end of line/packaging) - last week they were £2 and something so I was smug about my 99p shop ones.

This week they were down to £1.00 a box.........................
.................for 30 tablets :T:T:T so 3p a wash

I bought 8 boxes :o:o

So now I have 8 x 30 + 18 x 15 + 1 x 56 which makes 566 :j

So even if I cannot afford to eat, I will have nice clean plates and cups!:dance::dance::dance:

I don't know if anyone's already seen this but Mr T have F@iry non-bio powder 6.4kg for £10 (80 washes = 12.5p per wash) I don't know much about good deals yet but that seems to be one to me!

I'm going to use the £5 off to treat myself to free delivery on bulky items for HH.

Kerri the shelves are awesome! :T

polkadot, good idea about Christmas SP spreadsheet. I may adopt that idea too :A

I have to laugh as OH has just asked if he can have a bar of chocolate from MunniMart. I said he could so long as he gave me 50p - 'But I don't have 50p', to which I replied 'well you can't have one then'. He looked really sad :(and then after a little think said 'could you lend me 50p then please' - lmao :rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl: truly brilliant!

Lol so bearing in mind holidays, days when you're out of the house and/or there is no washing up you're potentially set until about October 2013 :rotfl: :T

Hmm, I might have a problem. I've just rearranged my store to include the other items I had stashed around my room and now I'm not sure I have enough room for the AF order that's arriving today =/ Good news is though, I've tonnes of stuff I'd forgotten about I might have a go at rearranging it again later, I'm only using half the shelf height at the moment which is a bit annoying.
