    Welcome Smoosh, I know what you mean. But once you get your head around the idea you'll love it. I have a tiny store started and can't wait till I give myself another £10 for my 2nd purse spends to get some more bargains! Looking forward to building up a good stock in Mossy's Market! :D

    Good luck, if you have any questions just post and someone will help point you in the right direction. :)

    WOW! You're doing so well! Do we get to see a picture? I'm not entirely sure what a Kitchenaid is :o

    Just wanted to give you all a heads-up that my local Mr C has Macleans toothpaste & other toiletries 3 for 1. I checked and it's right, 3 for 1! Never seen that before!

    Been to Mossys Market to buy some supplies....surprise surprise Ribena!! At least we don't 'run' out of it now although it's a little funny to have DD cheer when I let them have another bottle!! :rotfl:

    Also picked up some School bars which were on offer at Lidl. 2nd purse balance (for the first month) isn't looking to shabby seeings as I've spent it all once this month, not that I can afford to buy anything off myself for the rest of the month except one more bottle of Ribena for next week! I've started writing the date on it that I get it out because I can't believe how quickly they get through it. I don't want to discourage them to drink plenty BUT they both throw quite a bit away either DH's night drink or DD's school bottles etc!! :eek:

    Congratulations again on your Kitchen Aid Coxy!! I bought myself a Kenwood Chef (aka my baby) when I turned 30 (a few years ago now) and I love it!! :T

    Hi everyone,

    Just paid 2nd purse back for purchases used this week. Mostly packed lunch bits and bobs. 2nd purse still in the red to the tune of £18.12 but by next week, this will be back in credit.

    Used my K!tchenA!d yesterday for the first time - a lovely lemon syrup loaf which I've made loads of times before. So nice just to let it mix whilst I get on with other things!

    Not sure I'm techie enough to post a picture up but will try!!

    That's my favourite thing about my new KitchenAid - not having to hold onto the hand mixer, and getting everything mixed in about half the time, too, so much quicker baking ;)

    That and it looks so pretty :D
