In addition to my previous post, I have just sorted through all my toiletries and cosmetics...have found a heap of stuff I didn't know I had which means I don't need to buy shampoo, conditioner, body scrub/soap, face cleanser, moisturiser or deodorant for about 6 years! Result. I reckon I could probabyl live oout of that supply for 3-6 months!

Worked out that I need to find £3400 by 1st April to finally pay off all my debts (£1162.30, inc £254.05 that I overspent on xmas pressies:mad: ) and put the maximum amount I can into my ISA this year. So it looks like I may have got myself a target. I may even make it my signature if I can work out how:rotfl:

Hi,

My DFW things for today:

Got 1 Tesco till receipt with points added at customer services (my other 3 were outwith the 14 days.)

Used £3.50 in coupons off shopping in Tesco, most of it on BOGOF crisps and juice rarely on offer. Also Ferrero Rochers on offer for my sisters birthday and a roll of plain silver wrapping paper.

Found a couple of receipts with points.

Used £1.70 in coupons off shopping in Asda; 2 x cushions, reduced pears and reduced cauliflower.

Will check if I have any piggy clicks.

Bought reduced price mince in Somerfield today - reduced from £3 to £1.50 - and when got home checked receipt, the checkout girl had only put it through for 15p!! So using up some slightly rubbery potatoes to make mashed potatoes and my bargain mince, I made very cheap mince and tatties!!

Well today I have done the following

1 written to Lloyds tsb for data protection print of all loans (taking charge to get refunded PPI charges as they have definietely been mis-sold!)

2 written to capital bank for the same

3 written to hfc bank for same

4 filled in paperwork to see if me and hubby have old bank accounts with money still in them

5 written to O2 about 400 quid of overcharges dating back to 2004 which were supposed to be refunded but were never paid into the bank

6 amassed 5 yellow bags of recycling for the binmen on friday

7 cleared out a few dresses to list on ebay (but am waiting for a cheap listing day cos i missed yesterdays boo)

8 wrote a review on ciao (to be posted on dooyoo and epinions as well for extra points and dollars!)

I still have loads to do but am going to do it gradually and try to get as much as possible. Aiming to pay off at least one of our two bank loans in 2008 which would help immensely
