LaraCroft_2

Hi everyone. :wave:

I had my LBM yesterday so in the middle of big stuff and small stuff to do!

Today I got my mobile contract reduced
Talked OH into getting rid of his mobile altogether
His lunch today was from last night's dinner (never do that normally)
Friend owed me £200 which I asked for today instead of leaving it for another couple of months which I was going to do..needs must...
Did not spend any money yesterday or today

Storm

Hi all

Today I have/will:

- paid £9 in coppers into my bank
- brought food to work with me
- found a job online I want to apply for (or at least find out a bit more about!)
- Quidco searches
- Piggy comps
- NSD :T

Lara - you're doing fab by the sounds of it, welcome to DFW!

LaraCroft_2

Thanks Storm. You're doing a great job too!!

Hi there. Welcome Lara - look forward to seeing your additions to this thread each day now you have had your LBM. Hope that £200 comes winging its way back to you very soon too.

OK so my little bits for the day:

* Got lift home from work.
* Decided against buying a certain something for dinner and substituted it for something cheaper (still healthy though!) and saved myself about £2.
* Did QuidCo searches.
* Piggy comps.
* Took HM lunch to work (however I did have to succumb to a mullerice as well...)
* And the biggest thing of all....didn't quit my job again today :rotfl:

Evening

Not been about much this last few days but have made a huge effort today

So far:
* used my pre-pay prescription certificate
* used the bus to get into town and home again
* returned 3 tops that I bought on Saturday as I didn't need them
* returned an overdue book to the library and managed to get them to wipe the debt of a few pounds!
* used free minutes and texts to contact my chums/ family

Thanks for the warm welcome.

OH is in the process...as we speak...of cancelling his O2 contract which will reduce our outgoings by £25 a month. No more quick jaunts to Tesco or M&S for dinner cos I am bored...there is plenty in the cupboard for tonight's dinner.

Going to get in touch with CCCS as well. Sharp intake of breath needed first but see what they say.

Don't quit your job! And if you do, I'll have it, I need one! :rotfl:

Usually just read these and don't join in, but hey if no one minds..!

**Took packed lunch and resisted paninis in school canteen
**Made my cat eat Iams mixed with cheaper Whiskas food to eke out the Iams. (Ha, thinks he's so clever, but didn't notice the Whiskas which he usually refusesto eat!)
**Resisted urge to buy expensive magazines in shop on way home.
**Invited friends round to mine for breakfast on Saturday rather than going to poncy italian cafe round the corner for vastly overpriced coffee and pastries
**Used up random food in cupboard instead of going to sainsburys to buy overpriced and usually quite icky ready meal.

Ooh, feel very virtuous now!

My cat only has Iams but I had to get her some cheaper Whiskers option the other day cos they had run out. Luckily, she ate it. Bad luck cat, slumming it like your mum now! :rotfl:

Pigsback and Quidco Clicks done

Took back one of trousers to Next as they were £28 and bought almost the same in Tesco sale for £8 (so got 2 colours - desperately need some new work clothes)

Paid in change pots to bank

Phoned up for the free Tesco points but they refused as not the policy holder so will get OH to do tomorrow :mad:

Done 3 hours overtime

Bought friends birthday present in the sale at BHS. £15 top for £7 - just hope I got the size right and she does not have to take back
