    Debt-free and Proud!
    Thinking of you lovely QOC :)

    Back from Anchorman 2- by the beard of Zeus it was good. Especially if you're a fan of the first film. Lot of nice references and cameos.

    Today's money saving
    Showcase cinema tickets (free with Avios)
    Another 25p advent calendar
    A 1p Halloween sweet bag
    Pirate treasure chest 71p (after using a wombled APG :D)
    A towelling blanket reduced from £7 to £2.50 for baby Meagan
    Two more lots of Cushelle using the Ts mocs- 75p each

    Quite pleased with my little haul. Although I will admit I'm dying to see Scamps' M&S mountain!
    Debt free 6th December 2014 :)

    Everybody is stunned by the fact the M&S orders are being sent out :D

    Either that or they're in underground bunkers hiding from the wind :eek:
