Not much to report today - just plodding. Breakfast - scrambled egg on toast, lunch - pasta salad, dinner - chicken and veg.

Just plodding on again today. Breakfast - cereal, lunch - leftover burger, rice and a fried egg, dinner - ham, egg and chips.

Still to pay out for before payday:
*Petrol - another £15ish
*OH birthday gift
*Father's day flowers for the cemetery £10ish
*Minimal fresh bits, milk & veg most likely
*Pub lunch catch up with an ex-colleague £10ish

Funds are extremely low so if I can keep it to only paying out for these bits it would work out perfectly.

Breakfast - toast, lunch - cheese roll brought from home, dinner - something straight from the freezer.

Surveys done for the day.

Busy weekend planned running a stall at a charity event - don't think I'll have time to spend any money!

The washing machine has now had A WHOLE WEEK OFF :eek: although I'll need to do a load tonight and another on Sunday. Hope to notice the difference in the meter readings.

We had a very busy but fun day at the charity event yesterday but we were shattered so caved and got a takeaway. To be fair we picked the cheapest option and there are leftovers enough for a snack today so not too bad/could have been worse.

I need to spend today tidying round the house and work out what we’re going to eat for the next few days.

Fingers crossed some of my eBay items sell when they finish tomorrow night.

I’ve half tidied the house this morning and will continue this afternoon.

4 more items listed on eBay and found one more thing for the pile for next time.

Anyone familiar with Ziffit? I may give that a go for books and cd’s but could do with a recommendation.

Well the house tidying didn't get finished so I've got that to look forward to tonight instead now :rotfl:

5 ebay items finishing today - not one was sold last week so have lowered the prices so fingers crossed. Need to search out some more stuff to list seeing as I'm on a listing spree - if not a selling one!

Breakfast - cereal, lunch - cheese roll brought from home, dinner - YS kievs, new potatoes and broccoli with cheese sauce.

I FINALLY know what I'm getting OH for his birthday - nothing like leaving it to the last minute so I'll nip and get that at lunchtime today.

Tomorrow we are meeting an ex-colleague for lunch - £10ish

After that I should only need:
*Father's day flowers for cemetery £10ish
*Petrol another £15/20ishto see me through to payday
*minimal amount of fresh bits, milk etc

Ten days to go until payday!

charhen19

Got OH's present at lunchtime so at least that's that sorted.

Picked up a YS loaf for the freezer and a YS shepherd's pie for dinner tomorrow night - managed to resist all the rest!

charhen19

No ebay sales again last night - maybe I'm asking too much. Anyway I have reduced the price again on all items and relisted them. Also listed one more new item.

Breakfast - egg on toast, lunch - eating out, will be chicken breast, peas and a jacket potato, dinner - shepherds pie with leeks on the side. It's a ready made "for 2" pie but won't be enough for hungry OH so will just steam the leeks for on the side - might even stretch to a cheesy sauce again if I can be bothered.

We'll have to nip to supervise some training for the sports club tonight but shouldn't have to be there too long - and then I need an early night, shattered

Lunch and catch-up was great! It came in at just under £10 so that was within budget. It was one of those places that has an all you can eat salad bar with it so I filled up on that and brought my jacket potato back to work with me for lunch tomorrow :rotfl:Well I'd paid for it!!


All that's still needed now is:
*petrol
*£10 fathers day flowers for cemetery
*Fresh bits/veg

9 days until payday!
