Hi all,
My things for today were:-
-Conduct mystery shops, means i've had lunch and tea paid through doing mystery shops.
-Done my daily clicks
-Completed some surveys
-Put back a jumper in primark and decided to buy 2 on sale instead which only came to £4. Saves me getting cold.
-Went shopping in town and the only thing i bought for myself were the jumpers, avoided any sales and kept my money.
-Bought some books to sell on Amazon.
Have a good Saturday evening.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
