Glad that your mum now gets paid :j

I know , I think it eases my sister's guilt. I refused half of the money at first, but she insisted as she says I do just as much as her.

Afternoon - hope you're all having a good weekend.

So, I'm looking after my sister's kitten whilst she's up north visiting the in-laws. She's a real cutie, but she's into everything and follows me around the flat ALL the time. I swear I'm going to fall over her, she gets right up against my legs when I'm walking. I do love cats, but I'm glad I can hand her back on Tuesday. I shouldn't really have animals in my flat, but I think I can get away with a few days.

We've received the super-king duvet that I got from Amazon. I personally think it's too thick (10.5 tog), I would prefer a much thinner one, but OH wanted an even thicker one, so we compromised. We went shopping for a duvet cover yesterday, but the cheapest I could find was £35. I can get one from Amazon for £20 and if I can get another £10 voucher soon, I can get it for free (I've still got £10 credit on there).

Afternoon

I'm taking my furry house-guest back home tomorrow morning. My sister is due back mid afternoon, so she will be fine on her own for a few hours.

I received a £6 Amazon voucher this morning for a survey I did yesterday. So only need another £4 before I can order a duvet cover. Might see if I can get one even cheaper before then though.

Also had another creditor accept my payment plan, so have paid £10 to them and added it to my signature. Not far off being under £42k.

Well done on all the payments Emz :T

Thanks Beccie

Just done the free trial for Now TV through Quidco and will hopefully get the £12 cashback.

The only duvet cover that I could order today is slightly 'loud' and I don't think I could live with it. Would rather wait until I can get another voucher.

Well done on getting so organised with payment plans. I know that feeling of bailiff fear, unfortunately. I live alone, but was still in a state that one would knock at any moment. But I had my head very much deeply buried about my incomings and outgoings in those days.

I hope you find a really nice duvet cover soon.

Looking good

Emzilla

Thanks MT and Lou :A

The kitten is back home now. My sister has just got back. Felt quite sad leaving her in the end, although it will be good to get my flat back to normal. I've got a flat inspection on Friday, so will need to get it up to scratch before then (no pun intended).

Nothing to report money-wise today. Took most of the morning to settle the kitten back in and been driving my mum around this afternoon.

Morning

I ordered a duvet cover last night. They must have added more to Amazon because there were a load on there that were cheaper. I've got this one:

I'll have to get another one eventually, but will wait until I've got more vouchers.

Next purchase on there is a DVD for my mum for mother's day (I'm thinking The Vow as that's her sort of movie and it's only £5 on there).

Just done a couple of offers on Quidco and TCB - should net me just over £5 if they pay out.
