Good morning mf. Chocolate just at weekends 😳 that’s rather extreme!
I’m also in that grim bit of the month where there is no money to be spent or saved. Only 300 weeks until pay day 😖

I do have biscuits midweek don't panic I'm not turning into a health freak but my weighing scales are starting to tell me to get off 🤭

The lack of biscuits chocs or anything nice at work is killing me. I may open the boarders sharing pack of biscuits left from Xmas when I get home.

Hello diary readers. I'm afraid if you've come here looking for excitement you will be sorely disappointed 😒
Tiny Tilly tidies of 19p and 15p have been made the last couple of days and prime has been changed to annual from next payment as per @WinterWarrior s diary.
A couple of borders biscuits have been eaten and that's about your lot. Pretty quiet on this front.
Accounts are still in the black which at 10 days from payday is not a small thing to announce I tell you. Budgets have been written for next month tweaked and tweaked again and I have asked my gas and electric supplier my usage for an idea of what I could be paying when my fix ends in march. Subject to the cap not bankrupting me come April 😱Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓

Oh it's awful isn't it? The gas and elec. It's a good job we don't have to pay that upfront! My fix ends at the end of this month then onto the cap 😥 I'm with BG and did get another free years worth of homecover.
I can also report still in the black with 10 days to go although I know we will go into the red. Just trying to minimise by how much. I think we all have what we percieve "dull diaries" in the middle of the month. That's why there's so much chocolate, crisps and biscuit chat. 😂
All the little tillies are worth it. Imagine if you tillied enough at the end of the year to pay that Amazon annual subscription? Almost like getting it for free!Credit Cards NOV 2019 £33,220.42 Sept 2023 £19,951.00 Tilly Tidy 20223/COLOR] Sept £43.71 Here's my diary: A Ditherer's Diary Again1 -
Ooh yes. I often threaten to cancel prime but Mr M_F wells up at the thought of paying for a delivery 😂
To be fair I use it too but wonder if I would spend as much if had to pay per parcel🤔Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓

We enjoy a lot of prime video too, which I think of as free as the delivery is more than paid for with prime. I enjoy the made for Amazon ones and also a lot of the old series of things we rewatch in binges. The new Jack Reacher in February will be on prime.Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Ooh I forgot about Reacher 😁
We don't watch alot on prime. Some stuffs ok but we have had a lot of duff in there. Currently Disney plus is our go to of choice for films and we also watch a lot of you tubers. I am keen on the budgeting ones and an urban planning one called not just bikes which makes me want to cycle everywhere with dog in basket living the dream.
The reality is where I live it's all hills main roads and off course rain. That coupled with my weight. General poor fitness and love of choc and biscuits keeps me in dream land 🥴Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓

Some of the made for prime series have been ok. We also do Disney 😁 we go through old series that we used to watch every now and again, Primeval, Sanctuary, Atlantis, etc. Every so often we’ll be ‘do you remember….? And we’ll find it somewhere and laugh at how young everyone looks and how sketchy the special effects are 🤣Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

It is worth the money really prime isn't it. We need to ditch the sky TV when it's up in April but having the box to record on and view our other apps is so convenient. We have a prime stick somewhere but the remotes rubbish as is the TV oneDedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓
