The Unneccesary Challenge

Shortie

Hi everyone... hope you don't mind me joining in

After last month's 'oh well, one month wasting month won't hurt' shock to the bank balance (thank god I got paid toay, I can afford petrol again :rotfl: ) it was a short sharp shock and I need to reign myself back in.

Sooo.... £10 Mon-Fri it is. The weekend's spendings are all household stuffs if we spend at all, so not my personal budget. I need to try and keep to as many NSD's as poss right now and get used to it as at end of August I'm on maternity leave and towards end of November my work's pay stops and I'll be on SMP only which is a HUUUUUGE drop of total household income for us. If I want to come out of having baby2 with no extra debts I need to have all NSD's when on leave :eek: I'd better get used to it now eh? :rotfl:

My spends tend to be on food rubbish at work and tea, so thermos flask ready in bag to try and stop spending on tea, I'm going to say no to lunch wth my team today and give a truthful reason why, and lunch is packed read with a kitkat in tow too!

Wish me luck, I really feel I'm going to need this

Good Luck Shortie!

Welcome Shortie and Good Luck today!!!

Another day another dollar for me......... hopefully work will go quickly today as I'm in desperate need of sleep....... was still up at 2am this morning and really feeling it today!!!

Got no bread to make a sandwich for lunch so it looks like a day of cereal today for me. Get to use the work milk so I dont need to spend any unnecessary money today............

I seriously need a kick up the proverbial as well, I need to get on and list some stuff on ebay.....I mean it too, scream and shout at me! I need to sort it all out!

Pippo-I've got a load of girls trinket boxes, like Bang on the Door style, fun and funky bright things. If you fancy one for your DGD1, pm me your email ad and I'll send you a pic, and if you would like one, you're more than welcome to them!
I bought them in bulk in the hope of selling them on ebay, and they went quite well at Christmas but now I'm not getting any sales on them so I'd rather they go to someone who'd appreciate the freebie-ness!!!

Right better get myself together and moosing on down to work!

Shortie

Thanks Pippo and CAFCGirl..

Ummm.... Sort out your EBay CAFCGirl! Sorry... that's about as screaming and shouty as I get

I'm looking on good track for a NSD today (I'm soo excited and it's only day one, lol!). I've even bought in a fruit and nut mix incase I get 'uncontrollable urges' later :rotfl: for food

Hi,
Nanny is home.
CAFCgirl that is so kind - I have pm'd you.
I do that too though - buy things to sell on ebay & don't quite manage it:rotfl: The very first thing I bought was a job lot of 'cheese planes' they turned out to be so naff that I couldn't give them away!! They are still around somewhere so if anyone has a need!!

Shortie - really need a kick too to get me ebaying again.

We want to a) clear debts & b) clear house & C) if we manage a&b do a loft conversion - however I have so many clothes that don't fit and will never fit despite the weight loss challenge:rotfl: that The house is in such chaos that I wouldn't dream of letting a buider in to estimate!!

CAFCGirl

stupid question Pippo, whats a cheese plane?

PeachPickle

Ditto on the huh?-ness!

Welcome to the gang Shortie

I've spent nothing today, wooh. Even though I couldn't be bothered to make lunch last night for today and just took a load of fruit. I'm so saintly :A :rotfl:

pippo

It's a kitchen implement that thinly slices (planes) cheese - sort of looks like a cake slice but has a cutting bit in the middle.. I told you they were naff & to make matters worse the handles are red & white plastic!!

CAFCGirl

cheese knife then?
Or am I really uneducated?
LOL

Right I've managed to list one book!!!

PeachPickle

Well done C! I use a potato peeler to cut cheese
