    Everything crossed for you for Friday.  I know for myself a lot of the snacking is down to boredom . Really well done with surveys again,  it helps for the little treats as it's extra money x

    Thank you Newstart, For me the problem is mainly hunger, so I need to think strongly about cooked breakfasts again if I do get the job so I can add protein a hunger counteract! I have been very lucky with Surveys I cash in £29.83 this morning I paid off of the cc £10.34, and I also put extra money in current account Which I have counted as £10 over so I am left in the cash pot £5.80 which I plan on not spending today. I need now to get back to normality whatever that is, so that I go back to 'no spending'. Enjoy your dayXX

    Prolific a little slower this morning although I am on £10.06 to cash out tomorrow already! It would be good to do some sorting and tidying. For one the fridge needs a clean and secondly I could do with looking at the clothes that are in storage to see if there is any summer clothes that I could wear. Maybe think of new things to do through the day while keeping a check on prolific.

    So tasks:-

    1) Clean fridge!

    2) Get summer clothes out, if any?  I found one dresss I could use, and a cardigan, I have put away several fleeces and jumpers not all!

    3) Put washing away and put wash on.

    4) Make bread and eat lunch & Tidy away & make cake!

    5) Do Bins

    6) Job search

    7) Surveys

    Sometime later - Glad I got that lot done, I have some tasty treats plus fridge looks good plus I have another dress! Prolific looks healthy tomorrows cash out balance currently stands at £17.94 and there is still £18.06 pending. MD doesn't have any jobs, so this is it, but with the prolific being so good I could do quite well in a short time. Today I have racked up another no spend day, I have also rejigged shop so that I can do more baking for the next two weeks as it stops me from going to the shops and I enjoy it. I am as prepared as I can be for tomorrows interview, I am really 50% looking forward to it and 50% worried what will be said as the job spec does not look very specific, detailing each element, so I am in part wondering what exactly the finance side of it entails, we will see.

    Have a lovelly evening all who come by hereXX

    I am excited this morning who knows if it is a one interview shoot out, I could have a job by the end of today! Probably not but I can dream can't I! I have cashed out £17.77 from prolific this morning so the cash pot balance is £23.57, prolific pending is £18.06 and Credit card zero. Aiming for another no spend day - Wish me luckXX

    I didn't get the job sadly, I felt very uncomfortable all the way through like I couldn't be my best self. So Maybe it was for the best. I do have another lead for another job, we'll see. I feel like the world is not on my side right now! Anyhow onwards. I have £27.38 in the cash pot, I really need this to grow now! I also have £3.00/£23.46 pending in prolific. I am up to 7/19 No spend days, I want to add to this quite a bit over the coming days too! I have a shop coming on Sunday below £50.00 there are some things amongst it that I'll be glad to see that I haven't had for a while, like sausages & a pizza!

    Sorry to hear about the job but good there may be something else available.  Some interviewers often make it hard for you to give your best , depending how the questions go it's hard to get some things across if that makes sense . Have a lovely weekend  x

    Thanks Newstart, I agree it is just one of those things, it didn't work in my favour on to the next one! Prolific is still being good to me, I have managed to cash out £9.54 this morning and I have £21.56 pending, Cash pot is now at £36.92 12%. 

    I wrote an email last night offering free services for two weeks to an employer, It was MDs idea, I did try this before but for legal reasons they didn't do it, but you never know it is worth a try!

    Have a good day allXX
