  • Afternoon!

    Very wet here today. We went swimming this morning and thank goodness the lovely receptionist was on, as I realised when I got there that I had forgotten to take any money :eek:. She let us in for free so £2.10 saved there. I said I'd pay next time but she said not to worry.

    Got a few bits listed on eb@y - car tax is due 1st Dec and need all the help I can get!

    Ooh and I've finally been asked onto the R0y@l M@il pannel after applying about a year ago. I'll be rewarded in stamps which is always handy!

    Sorry to hear your grandma is back in hospital, hope she's feeling better soon. Boo to Mr Lucky's moody day. No rain here but absolutely freezing.

  • Thanks SA, Grandma got home today :j:j.

    Went to the gym this morning and then DH spent some time with his Mum after lunch. I did some food shopping and then took DS1 and his pal to parkour. All mundane stuff but not a bad day overall.

  • Forgot to say yesterday, Mr T had sent the usual batch of money off/extra clubc@rd points vouchers, and one of which was for £1.30 off a tube of pr1ngles. Wouldn't have used it save for the fact I noticed they were on special offer at £1.24. Free pr1ngles and 6p off the rest of my shopping - extreeme couponing at it's best :rotfl::rotfl:.

    You can now pay for your car tax monthly by direct debit if that helps.

  • Thanks Lindens, I'll check out the monthly car tax.

    Beanie & Sparky, I'm glad you approve :D. I did a bit more Christmas shopping today at Mr A's as it was the last day of staff double discount. I'm happy with how much I've saved on Christmas so far.

    Went to see my Grandma this morning and have been to chub club tonight. Most disappointed to have only lost half a pound. At least it's off I suppose but I deserve more. Hopefully it will show next week.
