Hi
Inspiration taken from all your diaries especially Fortune, I have decided to sort out my diary.
It will hopefully be full of ways I've saved money. May include Tilly Tidies😀.
Money Saving.
Used a £20 voucher from Waitrose, shopping came in at £62. For 5 of us that's not bad.
Used my voucher for a free latte at macdonalds, lovely it was too.
I forgot to take my voucher for money off petrol. 6p off a litre, not to be sniffed at.
Desperately seeking a vanity sink unit for my ensuite. Anyone got any moneysaving ideas how to get hold of one?:money::money:

Hi Rose tinted - welcome to the slightly mad world of MF diaries. Having a diary is really helpful in focusing you on the money choices you make, but it can get a bit addictive.
With regard to bathroom fittings, we visited a lot of bathroom showrooms when we built our house and managed to get a lot of ex display fittings at a fraction of the cost. Might be worth a try : )0 -

Well hello diary at this silly hour in the morning. I've given up trying to sleep. So will sit here, drinking my warm milk, trying to figure out how to get rid of my mortgage.
1. I've sold a couple of bits on ebay, 10 quid to op.
2. Rather stupidly we have booked a holiday with family, just thinking we could have paid this off the mortgage. We live and learn.
3. I shall do extra shifts at work when I'm feeling better and my hubby is already doing overtime.
I'm moaning so I shall go until I feel much positive. Get some sleep woman :cool::D0
