What small DFW things will you do this week - 5 Sept.

Exciting news on the loan la E agree about harder to pay off once you've had the money. Only way I've seen success is to pay it on pay day so I don't ever really have it

:hello: to everyone, stick with us newbies we're a friendly bunch

Agree with you baileys babe I often 'write' a post in my head for later, by the time I get here I've forgotten all but the basics :rotfl:

Today's list:
Quick shower, hair dry naturally
Made courgette, pesto soup this morning for later, only took 10 minutes
Check banking system, surveys and FPL and £co
Washing drying outside, washed overnight on cheap, another on, would have caught last of cheap leccy
Last few strawberries that were a bit soft and last blob of yogurt for breakfast
Dig out new PIN number for new account so I can use it for contactless bonus
Apply for reward credit card
Label a bit more (I did 2hours last night and broke the back of it) - now have 2 huge bags and 3 boxes. Anything else will be a bonus.
List some stuff on a brand specific faceb00k page
Bump other selling posts
Leftovers for lunch and frozen naan from freezer which will have defrosted by lunch

Right off to make sure have everything for work. PF.

Morning everyone :wave:

I pay off my student loan soon so if I combine that payment with the amount I currently pay for my car loan I can pay off my car in 13 months (from December)!

Marvellous! :T

1. Checked online banking
2. Been into Wilko to get cat food as I find it cheaper that supermarkets

Hi everyone :wave:
Just a quick hello from me as I'm shattered. First full teaching day and I'm quite wiped.
I've done the basics of checking banking and little PAD - keeping on top of my schoolwork, managed a nsd, meals from stores etc.
I've also found a man to look after the garden for me for way less than I thought it would cost. Happy days, and it looks like my remortgage is going through apart from one missing account number that I just can't find anywhere... I can ring and get it tomorrow though.
Early night now because I'm shattered.

MTHN we are the same don't drink/smoke/go out much so coffee shops are our thing. I wouldn't stop it if it keeps you sane! I would do as the others as get a loyalty card, wobble stamps/receipts to get loyalty points and may be order a smaller latte now and again! Avoid the syrups and cakes.

Feeling unwell this week, double ear infection. Safe to say I won't be doing much but expect a week of NSD's.

What are RM surveys peeps?

Next dose of antibiotics .... LP
