    Morning Everyone!

    Well I am/will do/have done:

    * Left my mobile at home (not intentionally but its going to save some money :rotfl: )

    * Going out for lunch with work - means I wont spend a penny!

    * Going food shopping tonight and will buy rolls for my lunch next week

    * Signing up to Slice of Pie tonight to get that rolling

    * Sending some bits out that have been sold on ebay/Amazon.

    :o
    Debt: just my mortgage :D
  • Normally park my car for free whilst at work however this morning, traffic was bad and I was late... Normally when I am late I park nearer work and it costs £6.80 if I can park on the street, or £10.50 in the NCP. I didn't want to spend on parking though so managed to find a space on the 'free' road and walked the rest of the way meaning I was half an hour late, will work through my lunch so I don't feel guilty for leaving at normal time.

    Going to cancel my haircut for tomorrow as I really can't justify £32 on a cut.
  • Sent off 3 readitswapit books that I've exchanged, parcelling up some Ebay things, and going to shelf my hall cupboard(now why is that moneysaving? Well, it means that I can make more efficient use of the space I have and put to the back of my mind any idea of moving to a bigger place - now that's definitely moneysaving!)
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

    I will:
    * Have a no spend day
    * Enter competitions
    * Make lemon cake/brownies
    * Get back on track so I check my bank account every day
    * Try and pluck up the courage to work out how to use Ebay

    Today:
    - I've done my clicks (waiting for Pigsback Boots vouchers!)
    - must make a shopping list for tonight's weekly shop
    - last night's left overs for lunch (yummy so NO hardship at all!)
    - must complete the baby quilt gift
    - really should e-bay

    It's hard to get motivated today as it is wet and cold so my RA is bad.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.
  • Today apart from walking the dogs I'm not setting foot outside the house & I'm going nowhere near any shops.
    Winnings :D

  • Hi all,

    Today I am:

    * posting item that I sold on E-bay for £50 :)
    * Going to juggle DH's CC's so that he is no longer over limit on any so will save on charges
    * Have cancelled my charity direct debits :( Will reset them up when better off
    * Brought lunch to work and not going out at lunchtime so no spending


    Hope everyone has a good day :)

    Today is my birthday so im going to slack a little, however I will:

    * Return boots orderered online that I actually dont like in the flesh
    * Return some stuff ordered from next
    * Close credit card account as it definately has a 0 balance now :)
    * Spend vouchers on necessary's rather than treats
    * research where to have hair done next as I need a colour and want a bargain
    * Go food shopping and buy only necessary stuff

    Its a shame its pouring down with rain today as I really dont want to have to battle getting the bus in this weather! Oh well :) Have a lovely day all!
