Morning Freeby .... I was just wondering where you were!;)

Well ... my morning's set ... turned on the telly and the tennis final is on so ..... that'll be me! Maisie's not very impressed!:cool:

I'll take her to the beach later as, like you, I need a quite trip to the SM ... meant to go yesterday and just never got round to it but then realised last night that I had no crumpets left for breakfast :eek: so Rising's not a happy bunny this morning!:(

Have a lovely day

Morning Fifty,

Great that you still have your Mr T card for this weeks shop :j

Not sure what the best thing to do about the vouchers - I just find it amazing that you have managed to accrue anything worth having. Its a hard slog....

Have a great day xx

I would cash in what you can rather than risk loosing them TBH.
You have worked for them after all.
Hope ya get lots of ebay sales.

Good Morning

Well, quite a MSE day yesterday :money: I was going to go shopping to Mr T but my OH, partner, significant other (not sure what to call him) said he would take me to Mr A. He knows how much I struggle with money and as he wanted to take the stress off me for a week. :A I had to promise to cook for him one night though So I spent none of my Mr T card and I still have it for next week. I did feel a bit awkward but he was so lovely and so chuffed with himself for being able to help me I soon got over it :rotfl:
Something I listed on ebay (the one with all the watchers) sold last night for 13 times the listing price :T It's not so impressive when I say the listing price was 99p but it did enable me to transfer another £50 from my paypal account into my bank account :T and I still have enough in there to pay the ebay fees and a little bit left over :T I listed another tonne of stuff for 10 days and one of them has a bid on it already :T Happy ebay days
I have decided to take Beanie's advice :A and cash in my vouchers, I'll do that later and get some 4mazon vouchers, that account can sit in credit for a while until a birthday or something crops up (or a kindle book I can't live without )

For a Monday morning there is a spring in my step. :j But maybe not as springy as this little chap :j

Have a great day

Morning Fifty,

AAAh bless your Oh. My hubby is like that. Gets all enthuiastic about helping do something for me and its usually going to cost me more money, but I don't have the heart to say anything and burst his bubble :rotfl:.

Well done on the fleabay front. I am having a mass sell off, of anything not tied down too. Because I don't work, it feels good to be able to put some money in the bank and make it look better, rather than worse, like I usually do .

Everyone today is in such a good mood, lets hope it lasts well into the week :T

Have a great day xx

Good Morning

Feeling all upbeat and positive this morning :T Re-jigged my spreadsheet and it predicts that I will now be able to stay out of the overdraft until the end of February :T and all being well and I can spend less than my budgeted weekly amounts, I might manage to the end of the year (which is as far as my spreadsheet goes). Heck, it's a daily fight isn't it??? But I am determined to remain positive and in the black.
I have been reading (lurking) in Rising's diary and all the latest talk of seperate accounts for different things has got me hooked. I am going to start that as soon as I have something spare to put in them Rising - you are an inspiration :A

The cheque for my old mobile phone arrived yesterday so I am going to bank that today I am getting quite used to going into the bank now that I don't have to go in with a face like this
Ebay sales are moving along slowly but surely and another thing will sell at the end of today. Don't seem to have much of any interest to anyone for a while after that though Never mind, just keep relisting and relisting etc etc.
I start my new job on Monday :eek: I am looking forward to the full time wage :jjust not the full time hours :eek: and unfortunately I won't see the increase until March's payday because of the way we get paid Something to look forward to though See!!! Positive spin on everything today

Hope everyone else is having a happy, positive day

Great news on OD :j
