Picked up another £5 on Amazon thanks to Martins weekly email for steaming one song from Amazon. Easiest £5 ever I think!
Yesterday was such a lazy day. Just basically sat on my butt and read! I suspect today will be much the same.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

That sounds interesting - I really have to get into the email again, that'll be a priority come February, I think, once all my catch-up shenanigans are done. Enjoy your lazy day2023: the year I get to buy a car2

I'm planning a lazy day today too with very little guilt. Most jobs are done so I'm not doing other jobs for the sake of it. There's always something to do isn't there and downtime is so important.June 2025 - part 1 - £19,145 part 2 - £21,973 Total - £41,118 29 months to go!2

Thanks debtfree, just found the link to the offers. I don't have the £5 offer but there's an offer for Deliveroo Plus free for a year with my Amazon Prime - going to have a look into that one."Think of many things, do one"

We've tried a couple of new takeaways recently, and for some reason if you book through Deliveroo, the menu has a few more options. You can still do the collection option, which I prefer as I take my cool bag and come straight home so its always hot when we get it."Think of many things, do one"

Had a reminder through about the fact we had stopped paying the TV licence and realised it was paid in advance until June 2022 so I’ve requested a refund for the months paid in advance. Looks like we would only get 3 months back but still…
Considering it’s January cash flow isn’t too bad and pretty sure we will end the month with money left over (unheard of in Jan!)
Went to the beach yesterday and it was so warm with the sun out. Much needed Vit D.
Few surveys yesterday. Did manage to get on a focus group for £20 next week so that will be interesting.

Well I have news!
Long time readers will know of moving house woes and covid, market craziness and lockdowns have thrown up curve balls every time.So I can only hope that this time is the time! Our house sold in 2 days. We found a property 2 days later and after a bit of haggling, it’s off the market and SSTC to us! Keep everything crossed for us.It’s a project for sure, but loads of potential and I’m cautiously excited about making it our forever home.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)
