Tatabubbly wants to put the Bubbles back in her life!

Indebted.Dunce

You are doing really well Tata, and you will have the bubbles back in your life in no time.

Apart from the overspend, I hope you had a good weekend.

What part of Canada are you looking to migrate to?

Good luck in your journey!

Thanks Indebted..

I had a fabulous weekend, got a pair of Kurt Gruger shoes from £100 reduced to £25 which was a bargain.. So not all bad spends this weekend!

I'm hoping to move to Alberta, I love the cold!:D


The journey is so slow.. I'm still kicking myself up for my over spend this weekend. In fairness, I did spend £40 in ikea and got some bits and bobs out shopping so I've got something to show for it!


NSD today (I'm not counting my lunch as a spend as its €2.50 that I included into my budget)... Cancelling some dd today and getting a grip on some of my spending..

Started back to slimming world this week as well, 63 days till xmas and I'd love to look fantastic for it! Going to begin the 30 day shred as well, its online, which is fabulous and means I don't have to pay for it!!

I'm arranging a bit of a clear out tonight so hopefully I can eb*y some stuff at the weekend when I get time! Next week is halloween break and I can't wait to be off work and settle into my new house... Only thing left to get is a decent balnket for Rusty's crate to put it in the shed! :P

Okay, so I moved house last night! Spent €16.00 on groceries i lid*l last night for dinner. I could have went and bought a take out but I'm trying to watch my figure as well so I decided a nice pasta bake was probably better than a fish and chips!!

2nd day of the 30 day shred done, and I've a free zumba class today as well at school! Today won't be a NSD for me, I've to transfer some of my wages into my cc to pay off the balance due to my overspend at the weekend

Still need to get money off work thats owed €120 and €60 my mum owes me for the hen party as well...

Doing awful on swagbucks but getting better at the tasks which means my points go up all at once! 748SB... Itching nearer to that £5 amazon voucher!

tatabubbly

Well, I checked the cc I had been putting off checking for ages.. I went way way way over budget!!!!! I have a balance of €268 to pay off on that and I would like to do that as quick as possible! I have €100 from my wages to my name after paying for food and rent to OH's mum.. :eek:

Going to have to begin with some ebay sales of stuff I have to boost the income and shift the stuff that is sitting in my mums house that needs clear of. I never ever use the stuff and I tend to pack it away every time I move so I want to get it gone, this time for good!
In other news, OH wants to keep sky :mad: But I suppose its only €25 a month but maybe I can get sky to reduce the bill to half price maybe..

In our new house, the internet will be half price for the next year in his mums house so I'll be paying a little of that.

Onwards and upwards....

So just updating here.. Going to be a tough few days with direct debits etc coming out of my account. I'm going to have to borrow some money from my canada fund Unforseen circumstances call for it!

So happy that I'm not working this week on mid term break, I'll be getting paid except I'll have very little outgoings due to the money saved on fuel/lunches.. Also no additional spending from going down the town after work!

Went out last night for halloween so not too bad, I got the night out for under €20 as I didn't drink or pay for chips after, watching my figure as well!


No other MSE to report, planning on doing some NSD now in November cos my mums wedding is on the 1st of December!!

tatabubbly

Well, its a NSD here for me at the house.. Planning on getting up soon and making my brekkie (uber lazy today as I'm off work!)
Going to run into town into the bank to put in all the money I have into my current account, which is like €50.. Bleh!!!! Hate taking money out of my account... I took money out on saturday night but didn't spend it so its going right back in! Mum gave me €40, which means I'm down, and I had to spend the money on food! Arrg..

Things are really tight this week money wise.. I hate being broke. I'm going to have to figure out some extra form of income as my internship is paying a pittance and I have no option there for additional funds. I'm thinking of giving grinds in the afternoons in order to make some extra cash as I have the resources at my hands for doing them..

Just updated my siggy, €200 saved from the last of my pay cheques from the work I used to do! Got around €275 in my account now after dd came out today so what I have to pay for :

Night in hotel before my mums wedding
Wedding present for my mum and dad to be

Definitely do-able this year, I'm doing the grocery challenge as well for under €200. Going to make a wee list now and see what I have in before I head shopping at the weekend. I have treats in for my lunch with a friend tomoro but she's coming to my house which is brillo! All I need is milk in so I might get the OH to get for me on the way home so I can have a NSD!! LOL :beer:

So wedding present sorted! Getting them engraved candles.. which are on order and on the way here....

I had a spend day today.. lunch with my friend out and a €4 candle from penneys to lift my spirits today..

I spent €4.98 and €1.79 on food as well.. Found out where the best place locally is to get milk, €1, which is a bargain around here!!!

Going well with my SW as well... OH is away now for the night and I'm off to exercise after he's away.. Already walked the dog down the town...

So all set for wedding plans, just flights to buy tonight and then I'm back to debt busting!

Clinched a deal for the next 6 months for my internet connection for the house, got it for €19 instead of €38!
Still have sky but I'm going to phone, say I'm going to cancel and see if there is any wiggle room in our finances.

Found a euro today and got a free paper from work.. Had to pay out for tea and scone today in work but all in all, I've had a great day!

Got my pin for online taxes so I'm away to apply and change my tax credits online.... Hopefully I can get some money back, it would be fabulous! Should be getting the €120 back from work this week and I have €100 to get back from my friends as well as I booked hotels for them!

Here's to MSe......

So had an okay day today, spent €35 on the excess for my phone insurance policy BUT I did change to the same network as OH meaning free calls and texts to each other.. Going to cancel my insurance now I got this phone as it *should* do me and if I lose it, my OH's phone is insured so we can claim off that!

Going to ask OH about coming the next step down on his mobile package from €50 to €40. It's only a 12 month contract so we should be out of it by next june!

Up and at em!
