Eeeeeek I can see the light at the end of this very long poor tunnel :rotfl:
Decided today that I am going to try & get a discount or cashback for everything I buy from now on :money:
Will be a little more effort but worth it in the end.
Dentist tomorrow for a check up, I'm such a baby when it comes to the dentist. Have had a wee bit or irritation on my gum around the very back tooth, don't know if I have irritated it with something I have eaten, doesn't feel like toothache anyway so that is at least a good sign. Will see what they say tomorrow.
Today I am in work until 6.30pm, home after for a nice chilled out night.
If I can I will meet my Mum tomorrow for a wee cheap day, maybe just head over the Braehead for a wander.

I know, I have a hardlife eh :rotfl:
Weekend was nice tbh, spent my last 5.00 on a pair of heels out of the charity shop that would have cost me 20.00 from New Look. They are brand new & its also helping a charity so don't feel so bad for shopping
In work from 9.00 until 4.00 today then off to Mums for some dinner, taking my own with me as I am on the WW plan & her ideas for dinner are far from WW friendly
She is a skinny minny aswell.

Can't wait to get paid so that I can work out my bills for this month & how much I can pay towards my debt.
Also decided that rather than adding my London trip to the credit cards I am going to use my savings to pay for this, just makes sense.
Will sort that out next month, won't need to use all my savings but the majority of them

Hi Dolly,
love a charity shop bargain. 90% of my books are from oxfam. Its amazing what the wealthy pass on, they're always buying books in bestseller list and then chucking them away. Plus all the expensive cooking books and travel guides, dvds and handbags and stuff they decide doesn't suit them Plus all the corporate donations straight from the factory. British heart foundation seems to be best at that.
If i had a lovely other half would definitely use my savings for a trip! Sounds like its going to be good. Will you let us know what you get up to.
Your mum sounds like my mum. Every time I go round there is a massive cake and nibbles and huge portions. Its all from love but it's absolutely not weight loss compatible.
I forgot to take homeland off my lovefilm list so I've got 2 discs now so im just going go watch it when they send it which will be slow but it feels too wasteful to buy. I hope this week goes quickly and next month you can fire off the bills and enjoy the month. Xxxx2017- 5 credit cards plus loan

I am going to make it a regular thing charity shopping, amazing some bargains you can get.
Will be so worth it, I love going away for wee weekends here & there. We both love Harry Potter too.
My mum is a total feeder so she is, worst thing ever when you are trying to lose weight.
Me too, this week has to just go by in a flash please then I will be in London!

Okay so since deciding to use my savings to pay for London (how smart & grown up of me) I need to make a plan.
So I have the following wee savings going on at the moment;
:starmod: Credit Union - Savings up for the kiddiwinks in the family
:starmod: 366.00 in 366 days
:starmod: Menage in work 360.00
:starmod: Work Christmas savings club
:starmod: Piggybank - about 115.00 in there at the minute
:starmod: Christmas & New Year social spendies - 280.00 in there
So the plan is to use the 366 days, menage & work Christmas savings to pay for London.
360.00 +
213.00 +
175.00 =
748.00 :money:
1 July 2016 I will pay the 213.00 & the 175.00 this will clear the CC that I booked the hotel on.
I get my menage on 1 August 2016, that will pay for the spending money & the petrol.
This means that I will not be adding anything to the debt for this trip :j
Happy I got that all written down, have a plan now gonna stick to it.
Will update when the payments have been made.
