what Small Things Will You Do This Week? 26/09/22

Work today, and I walked as OH had the car. And it was raining.

Anyway, I managed to get the dog out for a very short walk (due to the rain - he doesn't 'do' rain ) 

Cleaned up the kitchen sink area / dishwasher

Also hoovered and dusted the spare room ready for GCs at the weekend, all before work.

Took a sandwich with me for lunch

Did a bit of shopping on the way (the items I couldn't get in Lidl yesterday)

Dinner will be from stores

Early night coming up I think, as it has been busy at work!

Evening all,

sorry not caught up. I have 

made work lunch 
washed my hair 
put away clothes
put wet clothes on airer

It’s payday tomorrow woohoo! I’m also off from Euro Monday so I’ve double shifted myself Monday at sainsburys I’ve put myself in 4-8 and then 1-4 so I’m basically not loosing out on having the day off at euro!

Todays win may seem trivial to most - for the past 10 years solid I’ve religiously had my nails done every two weeks at a cost of £25 a pop and my eye brows done at a cost of £30 every other month.

2 months ago I brought my own gel polish and lamp and started doing my own nails and it felt good to be saving SO much money.

Today I purchased wax strips and brow tint for £3.78 and did my own brows and I am so happy with the outcome - the stuff I’ve purchased today will do another 3 sets of brows seeing me into the new year and over £100 better off!

I know this seems materialistic, but for me it’s been a huge win of breaking the habits that I need to break to make my debt repayment a priority over vanity!

@DebtFreeWannabe88 - I don't think it's a trivial win at all!! It's a massive saving, we'll done!! 🥳🙌 

Did a bit of shopping towards the end of the week and actually used the budget supermarkets rather than te*co for the first time! I only picked up a few bits as I didn't need much anyway but I've decided that I will do more of my shopping there in future. 

I've been making sure that I only put the wm and dw on when there are full loads but I have had to use the td this week due to the weather - the forecasters have lied a lot this week!! 😳🤦‍♀️
