Edinburgher gets cracking!

edinburgher

Got my last salary from my p-t job today and it is *pants*! Just a few pennies short of £100. This leaves us about £10 short for the month, which isn't particularly helpful. I'll either figure out some cracking moneymaking ploy or just pay it out of my own pocket

£1 Payments to OP Pot and EF, prices updated on Amazon Marketplace, no bids on eBayed concert ticket yet. Edit: Just realised I was spelling the artist's name wrong :rotfl:

Good luck finding your £10. I used to hate getting my wages and playing roulette as to whether they had paid my expenses or not. One month I was several hundred down, it was no fun that month at all and work weren't even apologetic which is terrible!

I get insocial hours and i too get the highs and lows. OH gets same each month.

Sure you can find something to see Ed!

Slow day for MFW - £1 payments to OP Pot and EF, chipping away at that missing tenner (now less than that, hope to have books balanced by midweek).

Taking a packed lunch, planning a NSD and dinner will be HM burgers with sides.

Remembered to switch salary to FD yesterday, will use their switching service for DDs soon to get the £100 bonus.

Have a productive day all :T

Woohoo - Quidco have paid out after an ongoing struggle to wrap up an insurance cashback

£30 into both the OP Pot and the EF.

Also managed a small amount of cashback for a hotel stay I've booked as part of Mrs E's Christmas prezzies. Central Edinburgh for less than £30 (and not a youth hostel) - who says you can't be frugal and have fun?

That said, I'm nackered after power walking to John Lewis to buy Christmas prezzies on my lunch break :eek:

:rotfl:wow...more organised than me (but that really isn't very hard).

Glad £co paid out for you - still waiting on my 2 claims - will probably be months before they are resolved.

Wow that hotel deal is great! If you ever see any more in the future please let me know, I'd love to stay in Edinburgher but with friends so close by (30min drive) we always stay there but at £30 a night I'd love to stay in the centre!

Great that Quidco paid up

I've been Christmas shopping today to! It was loads of festive fun!
