Managed to bag some prosecco today for £6.50 a bottle when it should have been £8.75 - so that's almost 25% saving :T - just because the retailer had labelled it wrong
On the right side towards the weekend....0 -
Not been about much I know
However, I had a lovely weekend away with some friends so don't feel in the slightest bit remorseful :rotfl:

Well another week seems to have whizzed past :eek:
This is my first weekend at home in the best part of a month and boy have I been looking forward to it. I have a zillion chores to do and things to sort but I'm putting them off til a bit later
One of the reasons I have had such little time lately is that I have been helping to organize a quiz night for charity. This was on top of my normal work stuff too which keeps me busy enough normally. Well the quiz was this week and despite a few hiccups (none that we couldn't work around) it was a great success. We raised almost £1,000 :T and I am waiting to hear if the company will match it (fingers crossed!) The money will be going to a local childrens hospice
Money news
Sadly no OP's to report
£5 gift voucher received as payment for a fragrence product test
£3 gift voucher received for a different survey payment
I've been making a list this morning of what I still need to get for Xmas pressies. It's not bad and I'm close to being finished. The rest will have to wait until payday next week.
Very little time for reading....and even less time for reading other peoples diaries on here
... I will try and catch up a bit this weekend
Have a great weekend

Well done on the charity event. That sort of thing is hard work, but good fun, and very satisfying afterwards when the effort pays off with lots of money being raisedEarly retired - 18th December 2014

Having a very lazy day today...not actually left the house (not even into the garden!) However I felt it was needed so I could mentally 'catch my breath' after the last few weeks of madness.
I did bake a choccie cake..anyone want a slice?
0 -
Guess no one wanted any cake then
I've just got back from a 2 day conference. Feeling pretty weary so an early night is looking likely
Have OP'd £4.46 which is made up of £3 PC payment and £1.46 cashback.
Payday tomorrow :j0 -
How did anyone miss the cake? Is it all gone now?0
