    Thanks Beanie, I'm hoping it continues as long as possible!

    I have come to an ebay sale today - remember the item I bought off facebook for a fiver, I've sold one of the glass dishes for £15 and have 3 more to sell :money:

    5 free spins with a ridiculously big wagering requirement, but I came out of it with £19 profit, whoop whoop, think I might buy a lottery ticket the way my lucks going this week :D:D

    I'm going to put £3 of it into the holiday fund, only because I want the figure in my signature to be a round number :o

    An absolutely crazy day at work today, can't believe we haven't even been back a week yet :o Anyway, after work I posted the ebay parcel, bought some milk, came home and have had a nice bubble bath and am feeling a little calmer now.

    Still need to reach my swagbucks goal for today, other than that it will be dinner and a lazy evening for me.

    I did get a £5 Amazon voucher today, I've got a Prime trial at the moment and they gave me a £5 voucher for watching 20 minutes of Amazon videos. It does need using within a couple of weeks but I'm sure that won't be a problem :D

    Finally its Friday evening :j

    I came home today to find I've sold another of the dishes on ebay, so another £15 into the pot. It has been a fabulous start to the year moneywise, hoping it continues!

    This weekend ds is going to his dads, I'm planning on catching up with my cards stuff, some job spotting and some housework. Very little money spending, other than food shopping.

    Thanks Amber, the job spotting isn't for me, it's an app where i make money :D

    However, I've woken up this morning and feel pants :o The lady I share an office with has been coughing / sneezing all week, and now I am too :cool: My throat hurts, I have zero energy, my nose is like a tap, so I have dropped ds at the station, posted the parcel and am now happily camped on the sofa with the dog and the blanket :D I've managed to put the first load in the washing machine, I feel sleepy so may well just nap on and off today and have an ultra lazy day ;)
