Reverse shopping is the best sort!
Returned online order, so £30 refund on it's way to Dibs card.;)
Returned two bras which fell apart and exchanged for new - they were only 9 weeks old, even the lady in the shop was surprised at all of the wires popping out. Not as surprised as I was!!;)
Listed 5 items from my bag of stock on the bay of e, seem to be popular so hoping for a few sales there by the end of the day.;)
Cashed in £5 on swaggy. RDF has reached a lovely total of £104!! RDF is made up of free cash - bay sales, bank bonus £5 and swaggy cash so it's great to have earned that in a few months.:money:
On the spendy side, had to buy bday cards, cake for work & shopping so £20 spend.
I'm FINALLY getting the oven fixed today :)I'm using the rdf cash for it, plus £7.50 for toothbrush heads (on offer in sup@rdrug if anyone is interested- usually £18ish so had to grab them!)
So goodbye RDF, you have served your purpose and I promise I will build you up again:rotfl:

:mad:Hello, what a week!
Chronic Fatigue is certainly back, no doubt about it. Felt so ill alll week and don't really know how I managed to turn up at work and function, but I did. Of course it comes at a cost and certainly a financial one but I have to accept that. The main thing is to keep working and keep my job, the second thing is to pay off debt.
So a good few lunches out (omg had the best veg moussaka I mean I'd get into debt for it, it was so good and only £5). I'm currently running at :
Owe £111 on dibs, no payment due until Aug
Have £50 in the bank (fd)
Have £73 in rdf (some tcb cash came through this week), plus some bay sales)
It's tempting to use the rdf to pay dibs but I will try not to...
Of course the b'day and hair fund is untouched, so I can still afford to pay my hairdresser in 2 weeks, and buy my friend a b'day present. So can I last on the £50 for 2 weeks? Experience tells me that I probably can't, but let's give it a good go!:rotfl:Jan 20 - NST challenge

Good luck with your targets. I've got around £80 for 2 weeks and 3 days. It probably is possible once bills are taken care off. I've just never tried before so I am a bit nervous! Its sort of like 1 hour at a time isn't it. Might be due a bit of a splurge once pay day arrives. xxx2017- 5 credit cards plus loan
Overdraft And 1 credit card paid off.

Yup went out and splurged about £30. Needed food shopping, then I went to £land and went a bit off-list and bought some treats. Also bought some treats for Mum when she comes next. I am supposed to have a lunch out this week, and will need a few pounds for next weekend. I hope hope hope there are no emergency spend situations!!!!Jan 20 - NST challenge

4 day week, hooray!
Lunch to work on 3 days. Today I had croissant at a business breakfast then a team lunch out, such nice treats and all at once.
Health has picked up a bit which is always a relief. No major cash in or out, £25 remaining for the next 10 days. Inbox£ just shy of £10, swaggy at 420, first pinec0ne survey done. Started fe@turepoints, at 2000 need 4500 for £5 amazon voucher. £20 worth of items on the bay. Electric bill has shot up by 50 % so time to find a new supplier via tcb of course!Jan 20 - NST challenge

Oh I hate it when I have a episode as I call it as I worry about people thinking I'm lazy so I push myself harder which makes things worse but hubby is very supportive when it occurs xxNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050
