Sunday 10/02/08 What small dfw thing have you done today???

BACW

I haven't done anything today, as I've been too hungover from my free night out, lol. Friend came over for dvd and wine, and then told me she was taking me pub, and paid for all the drinks. Didn't get to bed until 3!
DH has spent the day clearing out the garage and going to the tip, which saved £150 on a skip.
DH is now buying tea, as he saved so much money on the skip.
Watching programmes I taped last night, rather than renting a dvd.

Today I...

- did piggyclicks and checked lightspeed and juicy brains (does anyone else find that juicy brains is very few and far between, or am I missing an obvious way to make them invite me to take part more often...?!).
- did a week's food shopping (in accordance with this week's meal plan) in Waitrose and M&S, using piggy vouchers for Waitrose and a gift voucher for M&S, so total cost in cash to us = £0, plus we got the change from Waitrose in cash, so I have more cash left in my purse tonight than I did this morning!
- am going to make homemade falafel for tomorrow night's dinner (am playing around with the meal plan as we have houmous and salad in the fridge which needs eating up, plus mini pitta bread in the freezer, and tins of chickpeas in the cupboard). Furthermore, I am going to make double amounts and freeze half, so that we have some in the freezer for a "ready meal" when we next fancy them... :j
- dried some washing on the clothes horse rather than in the tumble drier. :T

Hey sophiesmum, i did think about starting this thread earlier but didn't want to take away your special job! Have been lurking on this site most of the day, not had a good day, all i will say is men, sometimes i wonder why God made some of them!:rolleyes:

So i've not done much dfw today, but things i have done:-
-Made store cupboard meals and used up things that were about to go off or that i've had in the cupboard for ages
-Did some surveys
-Sorted out some of my mail and papers lying around
-Played some online bingo and finally won!!
-Had a no spend day as stayed at home
-Did a bit of slice the pie.

Ooh, looking at this makes me think makes me think my day wasn't so wasted after all:cheesy:

Piglet6, yes i find i only get survey invites for juicy brains every now and then. saying that though, i did get a £5 survey from them not long ago which involved them sending me some butter to sample.

Thanks, andan - I don't feel quite so unloved if I know its not just me...:rolleyes:

Now, why can't they invite me to sample butter for a fiver - I'd be good at that!!:p :rotfl:

Dfw things for today:

· Washing on at 30 deg/ hung indoors
· Topped up petrol at tesco (got 10 points) just over ½ tank so not carrying too much weight
· Got 2 till receipts with points added at customer services
· Found a bag for lif with huge hole in abandoned trolley so took that along with my other 3 worn bags for life swapped for new ones
· Got 5 copies of Your Home magazine £1.99 each to get the free 2.5l tins of Focus paint (will take out of joint account)
· Got 3 tins of paint from focus (not decided what colours to get for the other 2 tins) told a couple about the offer who were looking at focus paints
· Found one tesco receipt with points
· Cut out a coupon from one of the magazines I brought today
and used £4.20 in money off coupons off my shopping
brought a loaf of reduced tesco sliced bread for 27p (i think they must have baked too much as it was by the front door - several crates high)

That's all I can think of so far.
