This idea came from PootleFlump on another thread on this board
Ideas on how to wrap a chocolate orange
This is my first attempt which i'm really pleased with. I got my chocolate orange 2 for £3 at Asda today but I'm hoping to find some at £1 before making anymore.
The whole thread has some great ideas but I haven't read it this year, might have to get on that in time for xmas! Link to the thread here:- https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2766466:idea:Debt at July 2012: £12,862.57 :eek:

Sorry for the late reply gang!! It's been a hectic weekend here!
Had a great time though, and no spends at all thanks to the Bank of Mum and Dad and the in-laws, so very MSE too!!Did charity 10km walk. Raised over £500 and cost us nothing. Free exercise and quality time together, for a great cause too!
Went home to visit Mum and Dad in Wales. :j
Roast dinner courtesy of my amazing Mum, and tank of fuel for being a Daddy's girlThey are far too good to us!! Also brought home a plated-up dinner which I took to work for lunch today!
Visited Non in hospital and gave her my "Memory Walk" medal - could have sworn I'd given her a million pounds... she loved it! Priceless!! Paps also on fine form and has treated us to a rather lovely cheque to pay for all of our diving whilst away in Egypt :A
Work all day today - took dinner and shared a lift so no fuel used.
House cleaned with minimal products
Washing on economy and outside to dry
Nectar Adpoints
Borrowed magazine from colleague after he finished with it
Quick check of banking - all good. OH gets paid tomorrow, so will be all squared away for the month then.
Shop around for best broadband deal as we are one of the lucky customers effected by BT's price-rise... at least an opportunity to get out of the contract 6 months early and on to a better deal. Thinking TalkTalk at the moment... Can collect 4000 Nectar points with one of their packages we would be purchasing anyway!
We are house/pet-sitting for OH's parents next week - so, no bills, no food (DMIL has stocked up!) and less fuel to work for OH... another quick win.
2 x NSD's
Left-over supper tonight to use whatever is left in the fridge!
Hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend! For those also working, I feel your pain!!!
Shoot xxx:T DEBT FREE AS OF APRIL 2013! :T"I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul"0 -
