  • Well today was my day off my main job. So I spent the day looking around charity shops for vintage jewellery for my saturday job which is selling vintage/costume jewellery at craft/antique fairs. Managed to find 2 necklaces and a brooch.

    Won a craft kit in a competition.

    Did all the surveys.

    Did all the competitions.

    Checked the bank.

    had heating on low and will leave the oven door open when I've finished cooking so that the heat goes in the house.
  • Well hello everyone, its good to see you all and all letting out all happiness, difficult times and total mse!!!

    What a non achievable nothing day today, posted 14 items which I sold on ebay, transferred £35 from paypal to bank account :j will go straight to debts when its in there. The £30 I found is also going to debts this month so thats £65, plus need to do some working out as payday today and I did some overtime last month so need to work it all out.

    Had a good clean round the kitchen and just need to hang washing on airer.

    Went into shop to see if I can reduce my mobile tariff, laughed at how ridiculous it is! I pay £25 now and to keep the same they want to reduce to £20, hello what on earth are they going on about! The phone was paid for nearly 2 years ago! I will call them and speak to them.

    Went food shopping and to be honest I am not happy about it, I think they are playing about with our money and their roll back prices - if you get what I mean!!! I shall be looking back over last months receipt!

    Meals from stores!

    Went into the wonderful pound shop and and bought 2 packets of seeds with a total of 6 different veggies in. I am working towards a veg patch to save some money in the long run. Not very mse at the moment and I shouldnt be spending the money.

    Just need to get to learn how to grow my own veggies.

    Anyway hope you have had a good day xx
