Its been a bit quiet on the money making front: Ive got a cold and had laryngitis so I've been knocked out for a while!

Im not sure what to do. My phone has always been terrible for 3G, it just doesnt work outside the house, not even texting sometimes! Im after a iPhone 6 but Im not sure whether to wait for a good contract or to buy the phone outright and use my sim. The sim I have is £20pm, a phone will cost £650ish and contracts will be around £45/50. I'd keep the phone for 2 years at least. Any ideas?£20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**0 -

£10.20 ebay sales yesterday
£7.77 APG voucher used before it expired.
2 NSD over the weekend which Im very pleased with. I was going to hire a carpet cleaner and do the house but its been raining so hard, the carpets wouldnt have dried (Im not putting the heating on)
Ive started Slimming World and Im not happy with the progress, I've lost only 1lb in the first week- thats terrible! I kept to plan, eaten enough, used syns, drank plenty but nothing. As a vegan I can only do green plan so im stuck. I could probably even attribute the 1lb loss to not wearing a cardigan!£20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**0 -
nat all iI can see is those flipping !!!!!!!!s - hope the techies get everything b ack to normal.
Is that not wearing a cardi and shivering, or taking it off on the scales?:p
I just tried a deliciously ella recipe with 2 tins cannelini beans, jar sun dried tomatoes, 1 tbsp tahini 3 cloves of garlic and some chilli flakes and pepper. Threw some turmeric on the grounds that it's good for you. warm it all up - gosh it was delish.0 -
Taking it off just before the scales, along with my shoes, scarf, watch and glasses
That sounds nice, might have to try that. I need to make a big pot of something every few days as I reach the evening and Im out of energy and pick at rubbish.£20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**0 -

Ebay is steady but running out of things to get rid of.
I've made a christmas cake this week and the temptation is too much! I need to make a list of things that I will make for others eg; neighbours. I've got pretty good neighbours so I think ill make them a little something this year.£20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**0 -

I might be a bit late as you could have already purchased your iPhone 6 already.
But, in case you haven't, I would suggest looking elsewhere if you're wanting to hit your £10k for the turn of the year.
I'm a massive fan of Apple, but the technology on the iPhone 6 is equivalent to other phones that have been on the market since 2012. These phones are a LOT cheaper and would see you adding £100's to your savings.
Personally, I'm too set in my ways to change from Apple, so I always buy the handset that has just become 'old' when the new one comes out.
My current deal is £15/month with Tesco Mobile (they use O2 network) for 600mins, 5,000 texts and 1GB of Internet usage. The iPhone 4s cost me £50 a year ago, and now I am keeping an eye on prices for both the 4s and 5 in the hope I can sell my 4s on eBay and buy a new 5 as companies are trying to get rid of them with the demand of the 6. If I can get a 5 for £200 (seen them reconditioned with a 1 year warrant on eBay for £250 so far) and get £75 for my 4s (going for between £50-£100 depending on condition on eBay), I'll be happy - and far better off than if I got a 6.
Good luck; really enjoying reading your diary.0
