Day 26/31, 16 NSD's, Prolific £3.80 cleared, 67p pending, Cash £24.76 for 21st-31st January.

Nothing to report today but I haven't spent anything so that's my first 'bonus' NSD.

I've also uploaded my receipts to Shoppix and have 760 tokens. It's looking like cashing out will be a lot quicker than RH but I'm still uploading to there as well.

Going to have a count up of the pots tomorrow and might add a few £'s to a couple of them. Can't wait to boost them on 1st Feb.

Hope you've all had a good Saturday. x

I can't believe it's nearly the end of the month already :eek:

Hope you've had a relaxing day

Day 27/31, 17 NSD's, Prolific £3.80 cleared, 67p pending, Cash £24.76 for 21st-31st January.

Another 'bonus' NSD :T DD came home for Sunday lunch with her friend. We'd already eaten our roast of the week on Friday so I had to go out yesterday and buy it all over again - joint account though which is why I could claim a NSD yesterday

I've counted my pots up all ready for tomorrow's weekly round up. It's been a really long week, it seems ages ago that I posted those figures.

Think I'm going to leave any extra CC payment for this month, I've already paid more than I would have done normally, and instead add a few extra £'s to some pots instead. I'll be paying some money off the CC on 1st again anyway.

Ooh excitement of the day was I got an e-mail through to claim a free pizza and dessert from Iceland in February. I tell you, it's all rock n' roll here!

Hope you've all had a lovely Sunday. X

Hi Teafor2 just read all your diary, amazing how well your doing. Have just got the shoppix app and have 270 tokens so thanks to Homegrown for that. I also do receipt hog took me ages to get £10 but paid it straight into my next account, my daughters laugh at me as they could be bothered but money for nothing. Will subscribe if that's ok. xx

Hi Anita and welcome aboard It's hardly the most inspirational diary is it but it's keeping me on track with what I want to achieve - which is keeping hold of my money or at least knowing where it's gone :rotfl:

I'm with you; whether it takes a few weeks or a few months it's all free money isn't it, so it would be rude not to upload the receipts

Hope you've had a lovely weekend and thanks for subscribing. x

Morning

It's my weekly round up so a bit of a waffling one today.

Day 28/31, 18 NSD's, Prolific £3.80 cleared, 67p pending, Cash £18.26 for 21st-31st January.

Monday round up of pots: just a couple of changes from last week. I've put a tiny bit into the caravan fund and I've added a theatre tickets pot to the list which I've put £5 in.

Savings £42
DS Savings £10
Christmas £22
Caravan £1.50
Dogs £25
Hairdressers £10
Credit Card £130 paid (£80 standard + £50 extra)
Theatre Tickets £5

So out of my £240 it's looking like I've saved £115.50 to the pots. I've paid £50 extra off the CC. I've spent £56.24 and I have £18.26 cash in my purse. Total £240. Very pleased with my efforts for the first month even if I do say so myself.

I've had a look at the joint account and had to do a bit of juggling to avoid going into the overdraft but that always rectifies itself at the end of the month so not a problem.

This will be my 3rd NSD on the trot. I'd like to be able to say it's because I'm being very good but in reality I lead a very quiet life even at weekend. The fact hubby has managed to lock me in the house today also helps. :eek::eek: He'll be home by 3pm so it's not like I'm stuck all day. :rotfl:

Just about to make myself a brew now and have 10 minutes with the TV.

Have a good Monday everybody. x

Ohhh I crochet too I am nearly finished making a 12 point blanket for my neice xx

teafor2

I love crocheting Kindofagilr. I only started about 6 years ago, I used to knit before then, but once I started I was hooked - pardon the pun :rotfl: It's because everything grows so quickly, I'm fairly patient but there are times when I crave instant gratification so it's perfect for me.

The 12 point blanket sounds lovely. Think the nearest I'll have come to that is a small star x
