    I've not even reached Target 1 yet - OH decided to get his own nectar card so we've not had the usual joint effort.  It looks like we can join our cards up somehow so I need to look into that.

    Sainsbury’s Christmas challenge done. Snaffled a £5 off a £20 SmartShop as well and they are still giving me £12 vouchers each week but I am abandoning them next week to spend our Tesco vouchers!  

    Last bit of Xmas gift shopping done today and used £5.93 voucher I didn’t realise I had at the garden centre. 

    Just need to do the food shopping nearer the time and I think I’m about there!

    Just renegotiated our contract with BT for another 2 years. Bill increased by pennies but got Netflix thrown in free so I can cancel our sub saving us £7 a month. They upgraded our broadband as well. Pretty happy with that. As much as you might say we will go elsewhere o really didn’t want the hassle of having to move.

    Totally ... if I can possibly justify the finances of staying with my existing provider, for anything, then I will!
