  • Hi everybody

    Today the second and complete unnecessary telephone line into the house was disconnected, saving me £35 per month.
    :j
    I put £2 in my £2 Pig
    I did my first ever Piggy clicks and earned 150 pts

    A better day than Saturday - went out to the car to discover flat tyre due to giant nail! Cost me £108 to replace:mad:

    Oh well - swings and roundabouts.


    Cheers

    I have finally cancelled my Unlimited card for the pictures which will save me 10.99 a month.

    I have worked out all my direct debits and have set myself a plan so I can pay 10% of my wages into a savings account so that I can pay my car off by May next year then throw all that money at my credit card payments. Hopefully I will only have a mortgage left come March 2009 and then it's time to save save save :D

    I've had a busy day :D

    Evening all. Well I have done some things today (as well as spend!) and these were:

    * Got a lift to and from work so no bus fare today
    * Did QuidCo searches
    * Piggy Clicks & comps
    * Bought the mp3 player via QuidCo - money has validated already :T
    * Got the grocery shopping in for £30 which is £20 under budget! :)But I do have to pick up some fresh bits towards end of week which will only be a fiver maximum I hope.
    *
    Got an economy load of washing done and dried on the line
    * Sold something on EBAY - have yet to receive the payment though *drums fingers on desk*
    * Posted another EBAY parcel and it cost less than I thought for postage - hurrah!
    * Listed something else on EBAY (I got a till spit - yay!)
    Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.
    Sainsburys Loan: Cleared July 2010
