Hi all
Glad your interview went well Tigzem - keeping my fingers crosed for you:D
Sounds like a busy day for you Tadaa - well done on your sales and money saving:T
I'm sorting stuff out for the charity shop tonight - left overs from the car boot!! Once that's out of the way, I can start getting stuff ready for Ebay to try and make some more money :rolleyes:
Keep up the good work everyone - speak tomorrow

Tigzem don't beat yourself up about the donuts, it's done now, and whht is £1.19 over seven days? It could have been alot worse, I will probably spend alot more if I have a weak moment! You have still done really really well!I have had many Light Bulb Moments. The trouble is someone keeps turning the bulb off

Hi All,
I haven't had time to catch up with you - it's been a chatty day! So forgive me for not responding to you all.
Welcome new person who's name I have already forgotten and I hope job interviews, ebaying, charity shopping and everything else on this thread comes up trumps for everyone.
I love reading through this thread - it's so upbeat and happy
I had a good day; despite having to go to the bank and to a friend';s in a nearby town i was very good with my spending - yipee!!
I also saved nearly 2.5kwh on the ellectricity last night by unplugging everything like a maniac - so saving money all around at the moment.
I hope your evenings are wonderful and you all enjoy a successful and happy day tomorrow.

Morning everyone
Hope we're all as happy today as we were yesterday!!:j
I'm up for another NSD today - have brought lunch to work, I'm taking some of my stuff to a charity shop at lunch time and avoiding the other shops, I've transferred money that I made at car boot straight into savings account so I'm not tempted and I'm staying in with OH tonight!!:D
Good luck everyone, have a great day.
Speak later

hi chele...
i will be pretty much doing the same thing.....another nsd for me:)November NSD's - 70 -
Cool about putting your carboot money into a savings account Chele - that is *very* disciplined.
I am going to stay in today - I've taken dd to a friend's house for the morning and tbh, I feel like going back to bed - I'm shattered. I think the weather has got to me today; it's dull and grey and I really need some sun.
When dd comes back we'll do some crafty stuff for her easter table, so a NSD for us as well.
have a great day everyone
