    I went for a 40 minute walk during my lunch break and spent the entire time looking at the floor for roadkill. Didn't find so much as a penny, clearly the people of Cambridge are now so broke they can't even drop money or leave it on the floor for long.

    I also realised that there is a LOT of rubbish on the Cambridge streets, mostly cigarette ends, clearly the Council doesn't have enough street cleaners.

    Tough crowd the Cambridge lot hey.

    :D great to have you join us!

    DH is on a roll. He went to a work show today and not only did he get some good prices on future purchases for his company, he also arrived home this evening with a thermal travel mug and a dongle (I think they're called flash drives ?) Ebay have similar travel mugs for £4.99 and as I'm not sure what size memory the dongle has, I'm plumping for an 8GB option which is selling for £2.83.

    DH's aunt gave me two packets of Uncle Ben's rice as she didn't like the flavour today. We aren't that fussy and they were just the job to go with my pork casserole this evening. £1.69 a packet online with Tesco... Total for the day £11.20.

    Updating siggie x

    What a great day!

    Also 62 nectar points Wombled from my sister's groceries!:T
    To round today off perfectly, my niece has bought a new tv and I now have her old 52" flat screen tv! :beer:
    How do I work that out anyone please?:A

    Wow I looked on Gumtree and they only had 42" tv's. One had slight interference and was going for £200 and one was going for £225. I know that this one is only 2years old...my niece has more money than sense.... so I think if I sold it I could get £300 easy. Would that be a figure I can add to my totals do you think?:)
