My mechanic friend popped in this morning and as he left he noticed my front tyres and said I needed to get them sorted asap - I have no clue about such things
Anyway, I've been to the local tyre place, just round the corner and have a fab reputation locally, and had them done. £135 but it needed doing and I have the money in the car maintenance pot :T

Just ordered my next £5 voucher from swagbucks, while the sale is on I'm sticking with Amazon vouchers but in the new year I might swap to paypal.Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Ds managed a lie-in this morning, now we're going to go job spotting so he can earn some money for Christmas shopping too. I need to get some veg, we're having roast lamb today which is my favourite

We went job spotting, ds was cold so sat in the car for most of it :cool: I have just cashed out another £7.00 so not a bad morning
We did go to Waitrose and get some bits for dinner and a few other bits and pieces (£20).
So the rest of the day involves; cooking roast dinner, ironing, more washing, some online xmas shopping, a bit of banking, hoovering and mooching on hereMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Dinner all done, washing and ironing done, just need to have my bath and get to my swagbucks total - I am currently nowhere near it, there have been almost no surveys today so I need to get on the apps after my bath tonight and earn some pointsMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

And finally it's Friday again
It's been a long long week, work has been challenging but more so because one of my colleagues is on a power trip and seems to be trying to bulldozer over a few of us. I really don't need the extra stress and it's all come to a head a bit today and the proverbial is really going to hit the fan on Monday so I'm not looking forward to that. I've also got a tough meeting on Monday meeting that I'm not looking forward to at all either :cool: Hey ho, I've got a nice weekend to get through first though
Tonight is chilling out night, tomorrow I'm going shopping with my bestie. Ds is at his Dads this weekend, so I intend to try and wind down a bit
I did order another £5 Amazon voucher yesterday, and am on my way to the next one too. Not too much else to report tonight, I do need to find some money from somewhere to reach this months target though.Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Just remembered that the Nectar double up is on at the moment - I've currently got 31,000 points (£156ish) so I am going to use some of them to double up on entertainment and get some xbox games that I can stick on ebay and recover the cash value from, so hopefully I will get to my brothers target fairly easily from that
Ds is off doing his paper-round at the moment, I'm going to get up and get upstairs clean and tidy while he's out, then I can tackle downstairs when I've taken him to the station to catch his train.Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Yesterday I did various bits and pieces indoors then was very very happy that Bournemouth won 4-0 :j :j Last night I went out with friends for dinner.
This morning I went out quite early and did some job spotting, I have just redeemed £12 Amazon voucher from there :money: I've also been and done the food shopping - I spent £78 in Asda then popped into Sainsburys and Tesco too. In Tesco I spent £12 which included the Kelloggs advent calendar for ds which I've finally managed to track downI also got a couple of bits that I can claim the money back from Shopmium, (free cheese and free cider
). In Sainsburys I spent some more points on another xbox game for ebay, I was told I can get another one tomorrow (only one a day apparently).
So, the rest of the day will be spent pretty much at home, I need to collect ds mid-afternoon from the station and he has a homework to do. Other than that, the rest of the list for today is as follows:- More washing
- Ironing
- Remake ds bed
- Submit receipts for Shopmium
- List game on ebay
- School work
- Roast dinner
- Hoover upstairs
- Change lightbulbs
- Take all rubbish / recycling out
- Christmas planning
- Reach todays Swagbucks target
- Ice cream survey
