It's now or never

Forgot to say that I have a new best friend - my notebook! I always thought my spreadsheets were my best weapon to keep me on track. But I've been using an old notebook of DD I found, something cheesy like forever friends but I'm not proud!


Everything goes in there, money updates, dates, survey progress, shopping lists, goals/targets. I must look at it a zillion times a day, but I'm hoping this will reduce as time goes by!


Still using the trusty spreadsheets but, they get updated maybe once a week, whereas the notebook is updated daily (many times!)


Also forgot my other big money saving news. Signed up to trial some dishwasher product as part of a survey, and promptly received 3 months supply in post - bonus!

So finally got round to making a signature, but no idea how to do the smilies, don't seem to do anything when I click, any ideas?
Still hanging in there with shopping budget, £6.64 till Monday, bit tight but it's been tighter than that these past few months and we're still here to tell the tale.
Good news is that I have managed to fix the couple of bits on the car - until this week I'd never opened the bonnet, didn't have a clue, but thanks to a bit of googling and advice from friends/family I think its OK now, fingers crossed, and it didn't cost a penny! Double good news, because I've not been able to move the car all week, I still have a bit of petrol in the tank and £15 in my petrol fund, bit of a safety net for the weekend so happy days. smilie, smilie


Keep smiling
