Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well Dolly Rocker!
Thanks everyone for welcoming me. I am sure I will need some help along the way as I have no willpower and I love to shop online...

This morning I needed to get face powder as I have run out. This is not a luxury item for me as I have a shiny face without it! Ordinarily I would have gone online and ordered a premium brand. Today I had a little think and went to Boots and bought a much cheaper brand using Advantage card points.

Need to decide what my weekly allowance will be and when I will withdraw it, whether Monday is best as if I do it on Friday I might spend it all at the weekend!

I am going to withdraw my cash every Saturday & make that last me right through to the Friday.

Still feeling a bit rubbish, I finish a couple of hours early from work today so going to head home & jump straight in a nice hot bubble bath then have an early night - hopefully I will be as right as rain tomorrow.

I love getting freebies on my advantage card! I have like £15ish on points on there the now & we do a secret santa amongst us when we go out for Christmas Dinner (2 couples) so I need to buy some Prada Candy perfume & another couple of things, been invited to the event at B00ts on the 29th October 2015 to get the £10.00 of free points when I spend over £50 so will do my shopping then.

Morning all, can I please join your lil group please I have got into a bad habit of going into Cardiff every Friday shopping not spending a huge amount but having a shock how much all the little bits add up to at the end of the month, I have to go this week as need a few bits for hols next week but from 29th of month I am going to aim for cash only.. My new year challenge is to clear all cards so this is a good way to start I think. x

Thank you for my number Dolly, we are going to Kos on Tuesday and so can't wait for some sun, we have both earned a break this year so wish it was 10 days not 7 though but we shall make sure we enjoy it, my Son and GF are going to Rome in November they can't wait either it's on my list too x

Oh I went to Kos years ago & had a fab time.

Think some sun at this time of year would be great.

Oh are they, I am taking my husband as a surprise for his 40th, it has been so hard not to tell him! Will tell him the night before so he can pack & get excited.

Rome has been on my list for years now, so glad that we are getting to go this year.

All these holidays how fab Hope you are feeling better today Dolly. Loads of coughs and colds going around at the moment.:(

I am out of cash but mainly as I owed someone for a charity bike ride they did so paid up with that one.

Also all the PO trips for E*ay parcels was going to do it from PP but I forgot So about £35 of my cash has gone on that.But do have over £300 in PP from sales so cant complain really.

So had to spend £11 on my card this morning but thats it. Hopefully no spend day tommorow so if I can keep it to just £11 I will be happy

Good luck to you all

Yeah that will be great if you can keep it at £11.

I am still not feeling too good, headache, sinus issues, earache & now I feel a bit quesy.

I am hoping this goes away soon, managed to make it into work & just struggle through this week.

I love a holiday!
