Very happy! Its wed food shop and I managed to buy a £70 odd shop for £46 woo hoo!
Due to £5 off and bogof and bog 2 f and half price
Next week I have 5 meat/fish so only need 2 days plus basics etc!
Can't wait to get out of this overdraft!0 -
Well I have a lot on my mind, baby due, 2 little ones and money! I had a NSD yesterday
though was a awful day as woke up so tired! I bought my son his winter shoes/boots today, even though i'm getting out of overdraft I can deprive him. We are going to a firework night and the only shoes he has are pump type trainers so he would be freezing! So £16 but will last until he grows a size! On the positive side his baby brother to be can have them in the future x 0 -

Hey, Im due on the 22nd of this month! Luckly its my 3rd and 2nd boy so have only bought a few second hand things!
Aww its annoying isn't it! My OH is looking for a new job, but we need to be better off than we are now. He has to look for a job £10,000 a year more for us to be the same! as we would lose child tax aswell as a couple of other benefits. Though if he gets one that benefits us money wise he may be working away 3 days a week! aah!
OH has gone to work at the pub for extra money again which im not happy about but its money!

Hi! Thanks for thinking about me! No still with bump! In my 2nd childs pregnant he would be born tomorrow, 38 +4 ! I was induced but even though measuring small they have changed the system so I dont get a growth scan! So bit down as why would they bother last time with scan then inducing me! Im sure he will be here soon though

I have to admit that the saving is doing rubbish
I have had to pay rent fees for renewing contract, bye bye £40! and I bought some winter boot shoes for my son for £16 and will not have much by the end of month!!
Oh has a interview tomorrow but not sure how much better off we will be
Hope your ok x0 -
