    Morning to all :) Hope everyone had a sunny hot weekend to enjoy I know we did :T

    I had 1001 things to do over the weekend and didn't get them all done as expected.
    What I did do was overtime at work so £ 52.15 to add
    Did have a quick snoop round the boot sale and got a few bits to stick on the bay.Which I didn't have time to list so will do it this week at some point.
    As I have been typing this just had a sale on the bay paid £1 its just sold giving me a £10 profit after fees :D

    The moral of this rambling post is never let yourselves be roped in to organizing the village fete :mad: As its a bl**dy nightmare as the rest of the weekend has been spent on this !

    Happy making money and good luck to all
    Mav x

    Debt free and Mortgage free thank you to all for your encouragement and advice

  • Goooodddd Mornnninngg!!! :rotfl:

    Back to my usual self (nearly) and feeling very positive about the week ahead. Back on the anti-d's a week and feeling much better for it. I can now face the summer holidays! :rotfl:

    Thanks to all for the PM offering support. Much appreciated. But like Aesop says, back to business as usual now :cool:

    So my auctions ended last night. Made a decent £63 after fees. :D I have the house to myself today, so think i might spend a couple of house doing some much needed housework as i couldn't face it before, then do some ebay sorting. I think i'm using a days holiday from work this evening as Mr CP has been offered extra work this week which will me we will be able to go on holiday!!! :j:j:j I could pay it of bills i know, but i think Mr CP can see the strain i've been under (lots going on at work) and can see i need a break.

    Anyway... best go and do that housework while i feel up to it. Make the most of having a good day :o

    Have had the BEST post this morning, the answer to my PPI complaint from HSBC and the decision is that it was mis-sold! Woo hoo! So I get just under £5000 back in the next 4 weeks, heading straight for our deposit savings account. I won't add it to my amount this month because it's not in my account yet but I am so pleased! Also got the free bingo on in the background today, every little helps!

  • Nice one on the PPIs Smithywilco! Great news! :T

    I'm wilting!!! :cool:

    Bit slow the last few days, but added £4.16 from Crowdology, and used a £2-off £20 spend at Iceland voucher, so every little helps.

    Decided to tackle a HUGE pile of papers yesterday, you know the sort of pile of stuff that builds up and builds up because you know you need to keep things/deal with things/file things whatever, but never quite do? (or is that just me???:p).. and I found £5 worth of Co-op dividend vouchers - that expired 30th June!:mad: So I rang the Co-op up and asked everso nicely if they might reinstate them for me.. they said they'll ask but not to hold out too much hope as they don't, generally. Bah!!!!! So I shall keep fingers crossed!
