Lets hope April is the month you are debt free! YAY! plus seizures free too.

Good luck with the weight loss too - I am back on my 800 cal a day until 13th May from today. These weddings are a good motivation xx

Evening all!

Quiet-ish weekend. Work annoyed me on Saturday as I asked for next Saturday off and got yet another no. It's been the same the last 5 or six times I've asked. Remind me again why I'm still there?! It's not imperative I have the night off, it would just have been easier as it's my Sister's Hen Party lunch and then DS2 is at a party late afternoon. I'll have to ask one of the other Mums if they don't mind taking him for me.

Anyway, took the boys swimming yesterday (£2.10) and the cinema today (free!) so lots of fun and still very MSE! I had 3 cinema tickets left from when I cashed out my points for scanning our shopping, but we were still waiting for DH's CEA renewal card to arrive so I used 0de0n points to get the other ticket for free. Bet you can't guess what was waiting on the doormat when we got home :rotfl:.

Weigh in at chub club tomorrow and for the first time in a few weeks it should be a good result. Sparky - 800 cals :eek:. Ouch!

You can guarantee if I've bought something there will be a voucher from that shop through the post when I get home, it's happened more than once. Boo to work not letting you have Saturday off, have they given you a good reason?

Good luck with weigh in - my tummy is rumbling just thinking about Sparkys 800 cals a day diet - don't get any ideas it's saying!

Hi SA. Work is just so short staffed they can never spare me. The perils of working a Saturday night!

Lost 5.5lbs at chub club today! Happy days. DH lost 6.5lbs so he won!!

Took the boys to a new trampoline place today which they both enjoyed, but I think our usual place is better. Then I did some shopping at Mr T's. Found £1 on the floor so put it towards what I was going to buy for the foodbank. Bought some half price cereal (£1.25), tinned tomatoes and tinned sweetcorn. Hopefully it will help someone.

Thanks everyone, I'm super chuffed! Cancelled the S@nt@nder credit card that I cleared last month and I'm itching to do the same with Bcard . The plan is now to build up a savings pot and start overpaying the mortgage at some point.

Took the boys swimming today to the super-duper pool with slides so big they go outside the building and loads of other activities inside. Cost £23 for the 4 of us and that was with a 40% reduction for DH and I :eek:. We had a great time but it will be a while before we go back at those prices!

Called to Mr A's to buy a new pan after DH snapped the handle off one of ours while washing it last night. It's been loose for ages and to be honest I'm just pleased it didn't snap when full of something hot. £8 for a new pan and £18 for a new kettle while I was there . Ours has been leaking for about as long as the pan handle has been loose so I decided to 'treat' us to a new one.

Also spent £6.28 in the farm shop. Xx
