Diary of a spendy cow

Happy birthday to you too Tomtom!! ♥0

Time for a small post-weekend update:
Only spent £5.50 all weekend (Fat Club weekly dues as I'm over goal weight so have to pay) On the plus side, five lbs down in a week
Just another 11 to go to make it free again
I got my next set of incentive stamps through for the RM surveys - 12 x 1st class, 4 x 1st class large letter and a set of commemorative ones that I'll happily break in to if requiredI'm getting in a good routine of posting now, so I'm happy enough with the receipts vs outputs required.
Nectar is up to 5117 points / £25.58 which is perfectly acceptable.
I filled the car up with fuel for under £30 thanks to 4p off a litre with the Fuelsave thingie at Tesco and a £5 fuel voucher from their consumer feedback group. Every little helps indeed
I'm selling my spare freezer this week. I'm having a wee wobble about it as I feel I need it "in case" but with two of us, the four drawers in my fridge freezer really are plenty, and it'll help me to shop smarter. I'll be £50 up too
Happy Mondays to you all :T0 -
We've got 2 freezers. The second one was bought to enable us to buy meat in bulk, but we kept slipping into a routine of using it all the time, so it got emptied and defrosted back in February and hasn't been switched on again since, I'm pleased to say. we'll probably do a bulk meat purchase of some description in a couple of months, when it will go back on again.
I might have to sulk, Tesco didn't send ME a fuel voucher!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

I was doing the Fuelsave promotion thing though - I had to fill in a survey and then got selected. Are you a member of their Orchard scheme? It seems to have a few things like that...0

Thanks!New job, so bit busy at the moment. I think it's what is speculatively referred to as 'a challenge'.

Hope you have a great day, we are off for a meal out later to celebrate. I will enjoy this year more than last, as it was the dread 4-0. 41 is fine, though
4-6 is OK too - or half of 92
My best chum has a birthday on the 26th too - a fine day.
Happy belated to your Mr Moo and to you too Tom Tom.
