    Part of the Furniture I've been Money Tipped!
    I should be getting to bed (alarm clock goes off at 03:50am - ouch!) but I peeked in here and thought I'd start posting on these 'small dfw thing' threads as often as I can, to encourage myself. I fell off the moneysaving wagon a bit, so I'm dragging myself back up onto it now.

    Today I -
    - Had a NSD
    - Mended the torn @rse of my work jeans with a patch from an old pair, instead of walking into town to buy iron-on mending fabric
    - Joined several survey and cashback sites and did piggyclicks and other clicks
    - Resisted the temptation of looking at the new Next catalogue that arrived today

    I'm now about to check my online banking and update my financial spreadsheet if necessary, then I'm going to crawl into bed.

    G'night, all!
    I was cut out to be rich, but got sewn up wrong.
  • Bank holiday here today so no work.
    Made soup.
    Put 25 items on e-bay
    Storecupboard dinner
    Cleared out some stuff for car boot

    Not bad for a day's work
