    I did well last week and have some money left over, which I have added to my £10 this week. IF there is any money left at the end of May, it'll go into my mortgage pig ;)

    Evening ~ hows everyones day been?
    In an attempt to "change my life in 101 days" i've had a very positive day and now have 10 orders for next week woohoo!

    Caf ~ im looking for a nice green tea ive tried tetley with lemon and it was bad any suggestions would be welcome ta.

    Anyhoo need to get cracking.

    ohh and forgot to say i didnt spentanything today :)
  • Evening all

    I have made it through today without spending any money YAYYYYY - I cant tell you how many times i nearly took the crisp £10 out of my purse, but the thought of writing on here made me think again - so great thread CAFC girl

    Well done on your essays and low buget shopping trip Slowly fading - shame about the conditioner, could you perhaps pour it into an empty plastic tub so that you dont have to throw it away?

    Glad 2 hear Harry is ok patent girl

    Shirley park - i dont know about you, but having not being able to spend on unnecessary things and taking a packed lunch 2 wk has definately made me more concious about everything i am eating - so hopefully i will loose some weight 2.

    Hope you have a great holiday peach pickle - i wish i had one booked :(

    Everyone else well done and keep up the good work xx

    Eek! Spent money

    Admittedly £3 for a black t-shirt top for work, needed it,so not too bad but didnt have budget for it.

    Ciara - PM your address hun and I'll send you some :) tea bags or loose?
    And yeah tetley is nasty a$$!

    Day was pretty good. Got a call from the MD this morning, not great but he's only trying to be helpful so thats cool.
    Got a potential trade customer for shop so that'll be cool.

    Mystery shop tomorrow. And even paid in my £50 today without spending a penny of it! YAY!

    However my standing order between acct's is still not going through on time!
    Such a pain in the behind!!!

    Bit annoyed though. I was in the shower this morning, and knocked my conditioner off the shelf. The lid's all cracked and there's a big crack down the side of the bottle, so its slowly leaking away :( I've tried to prop it up so its upside down and away from the crack, but still. Its a big bottle as well, so I'm annoyed with myself for that. I'll have to buy some more on wednesday or thursday I think.

    I know you're going to laugh at this, but sellotape a sandwich/freezer bag tight around it.

    Hooray! NSD today :) very pleased with myself.
    Stuck to my diet too. I'm doing weightwatchers (not really Moneysaving, but at least I tend to stick to it!)

    Why not pour the conditioner into something else - another bottle that'll stand up in the shower or a plastic pot? Got to be better than throwing it away.
