    Sun is out in Cheshire but feels very cool up here, there is a bit of a breeze. Dried 3 loads of washing so can't complain.

    Seem to have lost my mojo with 2nd purse at the mo. Although have chocolate bars in my shop that the kids keep buying from. feel tight charging them but they will pay 70p plus from the shop on the way home from school so they are getting a bargain. Will all stop after next weekend when the Easter bunny arrives. Shop will close for a while. but i can't wait as given up chocolate for Lent am sooooooooooooooo going to raid it.:EasterBun
    Did have £39 in 2nd purse but have had to raid that too. Oh well been debt busting so can't have everything.

    Ok, I now have £21.74 in the SP (thanks to a bulk order of catfood and a load of half price hairdye!)

    My third purse has £4.66 in it. Well, I say third purse, really it's an old piggy bank shaped like a chicken :rotfl:

    Just think tho Mum of 3, if you hadn't been doing the SP challenge then you wouldn't have had that money to raid as it would have been in the profits of the SMs - so well done you:T:T

    Keep at it though as I still think doing the SP even in as small a way as you can is better than nothing.

    I'm already making money in my SP! Needed to buy some make up wipes and some flash wipes today and didn't have to go to SM! Woohoo! I'm now looking at what else is currently on offer that I can stock up on with the profit from MM. Was in Mr MS food at 3:30 today hoping to get some YS stuff but nothing that good so was most disappointed. Did notice that they had packs of individually wrapped chicken breasts you can then freeze and defrost individually, for 25% off promotion, so might pop in tomorrow and get a pack as we do eat a lot of chicken and I'm fussy about the quality of it.

    Visiting DD at uni next weekend :j, she has asked me for a few bits and pieces that she knows I have in stock, went to Sun Flowers Shop, and found all the bits she wanted :T

    3rd purse £98 :D

    Decided to save for a short break away at Christmas :)
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Weight loss 3 stone :D
