firstly a question for those of us who like our excel charts

I've got a new 2015 daily spends chart which as well as the everyday spends I've also got columns at the bottom for any incoming amounts which I can offset eg APGs, TPPs, BM, MOCs, cashbacks etc

Now I am not sure what to do about cashback amounts that overlap December and January - do I include them on the January list or not or do I split them up?

For instance I had £11 from Quidco clicksnap which was for bardoit water before Christmas but this didn't go into the account until 07/01 so I didn't count this - that seemed straight forward.

But then I've now got over a fiver in Shopotize to withdraw - mostly November and December shopping but also possibly milk and bread for Jan - do I count this or not in this months chart?

Also yesterdays Aldi buys have gone onto the balance for COS so I've now got over £20 :j Its taken 3 months at least to accumulate this but it def has some January items on it - do I count this amount or not?

I suppose the bottom line is how accurate do I want the chart to be? Also it might be that I get no cashback to cash out in November or December 2015 so it will balance out.
also my chart my rules

what do you think?

Any triggers left for this? There must surely be some that have gone "OOS" on .com. Found whilst - I'm now having to go through 'T cheaper' items for Tvs S hope N/A as very expensive shopping in S!:rotfl:

Lynx for Men Gift Duo - Africa


£1.63 £1.63 / Set

£6.00 any 2 for £8.00

:doh:I notice it would only give, at best, about £4.53 back from an £8 spend. Still making gift sets nearly £3.50:eek: for two. Surely must be some available straight at £1.25 or below at this time of the year? Sorry, not making my post look any good anymore:rotfl:.


Btw, for Avs S, I notice two individual packets of Trebor mints are now on 2 for 80p in S and available in A. Maybe one of each (or two of just one version but doesn't give as many items to the 8), with an individual Wine Gums pack?

He might have the same surname

I would include them but add a note of the amount and where / when they were from

Porridge is also great with a spoonful of honey to soothe a sore throat in little one... Above the age of 12 months when honey is allowed:)

there is all sorts of things you can add to porridge to personalise it - eg the scrap of cranberry sauce left over from Christmas.

I am adding chopped dates and a few chopped walnuts at the mo for added fibre and vits etc.

I still have the porridge tube we got in the Great Glitch summer - very useful scoop - 1 scoop of porridge, 3 of water and one of milk, made in a pyrex jug, 1 min while I make the tea, good stir and add the extra bits, another minite but watch carefully incase it boils over, check how thick it is, all done and ready to eat

MY OH is being annoying - no change there.

I knew he wanted to go to Sainsburys as we have a little shoe menders kiosk - he only needs the slightest wear on his boots before he has to have them mended - my boots could fall to bits without him noticing.

Going to our sainsburys really puts me in a foul mood - really horrible store, staff are vile, no bargains, no reductions ... but there was no way I could put OH off going.

So I went into store, I only needed to check the reduced sections and get a loaf and my idea being to do this as fast as possible before OH came to join me - if he goes in a supermarket it is like taking a spoilt toddler - he has to have something as a reward for going in, every time and in every store - chocolate or digestive biscuits or crisps or hot cross buns or something or other :mad:

so I got as far as the SS tills when he rolls up with one of this World War 2 magazines (obsessed with military history) The loaf is £1 and I've managed to find one solitary Christmas pack of minstrels which go through for 10p :j
OHs magazine is £4.70 :eek: - this in addition to whatever mending his boots have cost - at least a tenner :mad:

There was no way I could have avoided this - his mag he would have got anyway over the weekend and I'd managed to put him off going to the menders for 2 days

exasperating.

never be rich at this rate.
