Thank you bugslet I think my mojo is in full flow. I realise that no one is going to help me so if I want that house, I have to go out and get it.

£33.33 added; £5 ondevice, £5.33 checkoutsmart, £20 referrals, £3 pinecone


Edging closer to that 7!


Alton was amazing and pretty cheap, didn't spend a penny in there and that is some achievement! Had to pay for 3 days parking and that was it Bought all our food for 3 days before we went and then found a co-op near our hotel and stocked up on reductions for lunches- 12p for 4 bread rolls! Worked out lunches/snacks/drinks would have cost £200 for 3 days for 4 of us...cost me £18


Petrol was £60 for 450 miles- £20 to be paid from passenger, tickets+hotel was £130 per adult (but the other adult paid for himself) so 3 days for me and the kids was £200. Pretty chuffed with that considering how expensive Alton can be £££

Good morning everybody!


Its my girls first day at school today and she looks adorable, even more so because he uniform was pretty much free Its all those APGs, they soon add up and I spent them wisely once the uniforms were reduced


Heading to tescos in a bit as I hear they have cheap toys. I have a few vouchers to use too so some free bread is coming my way


£2.80 in coupons used that took 30p off my shopping

£12 ebay sale duly added to total


I have been a bit..um..devious. My ex has bought my boy some school shoes (after I told him I had already bought them.) He heard I got them free at Tesco and decided that that wasn't good enough and bought a pair from Next for £35. They aren't even leather, they don't look good and the sole would wear out within a month or two so....I may have taken them back for a refund It wasn't the same payment card so its gone onto a gift card. I don't know what to do with it, Think I'll keep hold and see if he says anything I call it payback for last year; he told me he had bought some shoes, I just had to collect them. I picked them up but they hadn't been paid for..he never did pay me back.


Waiting for a few APGs to come through in a bit, used £7 odd earlier to generate another so fingers crossed its worked!
