Intergalactic_Floozie

• I took DS2's leftover tea (pasta in tomato sauce) from yesterday for my lunch at work.
• I withdrew £50 which is the rest of the money the kids lunches/activities will cost me for the rest of the month, so no excuse to go to cash machine yet.
• I have checked my internet banking and updated my budget spreadsheet.
• I went and paid a cheque into the bank that had been hanging around for a bit as I couldn't be bothered to walk down and pay it in!!!!
• Got my petrol from Tesco instead of the local petrol station, so I accumulated 38 points = £1.52 in deals.
• I did 1hr overtime at work, which is worth £8.50 to me after tax. Wont get paid til April though cos I missed the March cut-off point
• Bought some cheaper shampoo (Tesco own brand @ 49p rather than Alberto Balsam @ 99p)
• Found a receipt for 30 points with a barcode at the bottom, which I took to Tesco Customer Services and got added to my card.
• Posted on this thread to prove my motivation and commitment!!!

I don't know what the clicks are either.

Today I checked my online backing and cancelled a direct debit. I've read more of "The Money Diet." I rang up the library (using free minutes on my mobile) to renew my books which were due back today and so I've saved myself some fines. I started keeping amoney diary last wednesday and today I made a spreadsheet to put my daily spending into.

I have
- used a couple of vouchers in asda, saving 30p (had more to use but apparantly they dont accept them at the self service checkout now!)
- bought a couple of extra items in asda, but did refrain from a lot more that I wanted!
- going to do washing and dry on radiators
- bought cheapie white label disposables, cant use reusable nappies while baby has the runs!
- hopefully found a tenant for my BTL business, making £120 extra money a month, will confirm tomorrow
- sent of for some freebie nappies

Hi all,

Thanks for all the lovely birthday wishes yesterday.xxx

Today I have

• checked online banking
• done clicks
• about to list a few items on ebay
• sent for a freebie of comfort fabric conditioner
• Had a storecupboard tea
• Saved £120. Had 10 days to pay a fine of £180 or it goes up to £300. Emailed and phoned the council and they will keep it at £180 for 6 mths - still not fair though, we don't deserve the fine.
