Hello everyone
It's payday at last!!!
So I managed to pot 4 lovely £2 coins from my holding pot and some shrapnelPatrick the pot was sulking but he's happy now.
Welcome to the newbies, as I've said before this is the best thread on MSE so you've come to the right place
Hope everyone's looking forward to the weekend
Ooh this is no-council-tax month isn't it - even better, more to save in Patrick or straight into my ISAThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
Bit of an unexpected pot for me today. £1 from mysupermarket. I did my order through them and clicked on the cashback tab. Found some cereal bars that I would normally purchase on a 100% cashback. Bonus! Did the order, ironic thing they were out of stock and substituted for a higher value product and today got a lovely email from mysupermarket saying I have £1 waiting for me in paypal
yay!!!! Worth noting if you do an online shop

Evening fellow SPCers, and hope you are getting over your sulk jakes-mum (as said, not allowed, so keep smiling!!) Personally, I find coco pops much more appetising than Quaker whatevers (really good for WW, lol...)
Talking of which, bad week, 1lb on(but upside is that's 2 pounds in the pot).
I blame Miss Eve's birthday, which seemed to last all weekend... pizza and chocolate cake do not equal weight loss at the scales!! Said Miss Eve off school today with nasty cough/sore throat, so had to take a holiday day (saved for such emergencies). We both had a lovely nap this morning (!) and then decided to teach ourselves to knit from her birthday present book... I quite took to it, personally, even if she did lose patience when she kept dropping her stitches!
A miserly 1p potted today (change from buying Miss Eve's throat pastilles!) Oh well, onwards and upwards (hopefully not the weight though...)
Until next time, good night one and all!SPC No. 104 (oh no I've lost my magic 2000!)

Target for SPC 2014: £500

Don't know what's wrong with me:D must be the 5:2 diet I'm on, fuddling my brain. Take heart! I am starving and all this talk of muffins and crumpets just won't do. I can't eat anything until tonight and then only 250 cals -it's a fast day. Even a cup of tea seems exciting at the moment.
:rotfl::rotfl:Maybe if I write to 'The Quakers' they might make my brekkie cereal instead :rotfl::rotfl:luckycharlie wrote: »HELLO JAKES-MUM :hello:
You are having a rough time how mean of the Quakers :rotfl:(Sorry Elizabunny):rotfl::rotfl:
Do they not know you need your brekkie? Write to them they might send you some you never know.
Anyway stop sulking you know I don't allow sulking

I did write to them and they bloomin well ignored me :eek:, I really dont know why they took it off the shelves as the strawberry one (the only one I could eat :cool:) was always dragged off the shelves when Mr T put it on £2 a box, couldnt get one for love nor money :eek:. I sulked until lunchtime and have had a not so great tea so will no doubt be sulking again tomorow morning when im all hungry againHi everyone,
Jakes-Mum that's awful! What kind of thing can you tolerate? Maybe we can all put our heads together and come up with a solution.
Ahh Wyre this is indeed the million dollar question :rotfl:, I have so many food problems that I have the same lunch every day and only have 3 different dinners I can eat, cereal is a nightmare, can't eat anything at all made by kelloggs (god knows what they stick in their boxes but my tummy no like!), no supermarket own brands, no porridge, no wheetabix, no bread products (can only handle 2 slices a day which is my lunch), no pastries, no fry up (can eat egg and sausage but thats one of my 3 dinners :rotfl:), granola now also seems to be a no . . . . umm . . . . so basically I can eat nothing :rotfl::rotfl:
