Morning everyone,
Well after my shop yesterday, I am hoping today will be a NSD.
I have spag bol, chicken casserole, 8 fish pies and lamb stew to bag up into individual portions and freeze.
Today I will cook up some shepherd pies to freeze as well.
Fish pie for dinner here!
Will be reviewing the finances today.
Hope everyone has a great day.
Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!

Today is my first real day of DFW'ness and
- I have bought sandwiches for lunch
- I've bought only 75p out with me today for tea/coffee/milk for breakfast and a loaf of bread on the way home.
- Left my debit card at home.
- Eaten muesli I bought from home rather than buying a bacon sandwich.
- Got some sausages out of the freezer for dinner tonight.
- I intend to sort out our spare room*, partly so I can sleep there at the weekend when my parents are up, and partly because I have loads of stuff I can either sell on ebay or take to a car boot sale.
- Find out where my nearest car boot sale is held
- Finally get round to printing 2nd letter to Alliance and Leicester to politely ask for my bank charges back.
- Get a ebay package ready for postage tomorrow
*this might be the same goal I have for the next 4 days....0 -
Posted two Amazon parcels (profit c.£6 - not much but all adds up)

Evening!
Well today has been an expensive one (dentist) and an annoying one (left lunch at home so had to buy some food - grrrr) so what have I actually done?
* Got two free tubes of Colgate Sensitive toothpaste from the dentist - sort of travel sized but still decent enough and free!
* Did piggy comps & QuidCo searches
* Was able to take BF's car to work so no bus fare
* Banked £15.15 in the form of a fiver & some loose change instead of keeping it in purse and no doubt frittering it away!
* Did an economy cycle wash & dried on line.
* Collected water from a dripping kitchen tap we have (and am doing it again as I type!) to water the pots of flowers outside with!
edit: Did some quick surveys on test & vote as well and also reminded boyfriend he owes me half towards his Mum's birthday present that I bought on Sunday!!Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.
Sainsburys Loan: Cleared July 2010
Credit cards: AMEX Airmiles Card: direct debit set to clear balance monthly
