  • Hi Penny, keep plodding, you are doing well and you're an inspiration to us on here:beer:.
    I had a wobble yesterday when the 10 year old asked why we weren't doing anything fun - BECAUSE WE'RE TRYING TO BE DEBT FREE:mad::mad:, obviously i made some lame excuse about working from home and we will do something when i take leave at the end of the holidays.

    Just don't tell her the 'fun' will involve buying school shoes:rotfl:xx

    Sorry that you had a down day yesterday, hope you're feeling much brighter today?

    That's really sad :( I agree pwps we are very lucky, I try to think there's always someone worse off than me, this just proves some people are a lot worse off xx

    Morning.

    Children had a great day yesterday with their Grandma and not only did she treat them to the cinema but also to lunch out:D, which meant I got away with giving them a light tea of sandwiches, carrot sticks and HM cake, so the Fish chips and peas i had planned stayed in the freezer as OH had left over bolognaise and pasta and I had a sandwich , it's all money saving :j.

    Yesterday wasn't too bad on the money front as I didn't go anywhere, so I had a NSD and also did some baking to stop me buying snacks for the little gremlins.

    Lots of surveys completed and I redeemed 2 small payments, £7.84 from acxi0m which was paid instantly into pay pal and £5 from mysurvey but won't receive this until next week.

    Bills wise I paid Barc card £170, still have 2 bills to pay and then thats it for the month.

    Today will be a LSD as I need to go and get a birthday present for DD friend, also need toothpaste and teabags.

    Managed to compare my aldi receipt from the other day and have saved £10.51 this week:D.

    So surveys yesterday:

    Inb0xp0unds - 3p
    pure pr0file - 10p
    GTM - 35pts
    Acxi0m - 88p
    mysurv£y - 750pts
    p0wer of 0pini0ns - 5pts
    0nep0ll - 50p
    nectar adp0ints - 24pts
    maxim!les - 100pts
    harris p0ll 0nline - 100pts

    NSD 10/42

    Off to catch up on diaries, have a good day.x.
