but it was a fiver that his mate gave me to go to the bar for him last night, and I mean the bar that we were already in, he just couldn't be bothered to get up

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: I bet he's here shortly!!

Today I have/will:

- check online banking
- update spreadsheets
- getting rid of loads of [strike]tat[/strike] erm, good stuff on freecycle (not strictly DFW but I find the more you give, the more you get offered if there is by chance somehting you want at a later date )
- storecupboard meals
- stick to shopping list of cat food, bread and margarine and reduced, useable bargain foods when I go to Asda (near closing time in case of any reduced things that coould fill up freezer )
- housework :mad: (stops me speding online!)


*edit* forgot the best one! Got an email from Talk Talk saying they've removed the charges from my old account thy've been chasing me for for almost a year (that I didn't owe them in the first place!). Unfortunately, this has resulted in them in putting a default on my credit file and affected the rate of my remortgage :mad::mad: so I've emailed them back asking them to remove it. Thye've given me a number I have to ring tomorrow to deal with it, so fingers crossed!

Afternoon everyone!

• Worked 5 hours overtime (Sundays are double time - hooray!!) - running overtime total is £238.60 due to be paid in April.
• Had another no-personal-spend day (8/10 - over a third of the way through my month)
• Posted on this thread for 10th day in a row to show commitment.
• Checked purse and found some copper to put in my pint-pot.
• Checked internet banking and updated spreadsheet - still have over £280 to last til next pay day! Moneysaving is great!!!!
• Made last night's tea from storecupboard/freezer stuff that had been in there for ages, and was complimented by DH (very rare)
• Found 5p on the floor in the bedroom when cleaning, so that's gone in the pint pot.
• Bought a 1kg box of mis-shaped choccie bicckies from Farm Foods for £2 - what a bargain
• Bought at least 2/3rds of shopping list from Farm Foods for £18.51, going back to Tesco tomorrow for the things I can get cheaper/cant get at FF.

Hello everyone - not been here for ages!

Today I have shopped in Waitrose with vouchers from Pigsback - had to drive, and bought a few treats, but I figure I'm still way up!

Went for breakfast in Wetherspoons, not strictly DFW but kids needed a treat and it was so cheap and cheerful that we were too full to eat lunch - for just over £10.

Ordered £350 (8750 points) of Tesco holiday deals vouchers to (nearly) pay for a holiday in France in the summer for me and the kids - we're getting excited! Just need to get super cheap flights now! I feel a bit panicky that I spent so much of my vouchers stash all at once today - better get collecting!

Did my clicks, about to pack up a couple of eBay bits.

Will make hm soup (to take to work) this evening.

Have a good evening!

Does anybody need a pet-teen?
My delightful DD (16 last week) has so far this year managed to

1. flood the bathroom, resulting in a new kitchen ceiling & lights and £100 excess payment on the house insurance - put the bath on and went to talk to her mates on msn:mad:
2. Blow up the microwave - set fire to a jacket potato, wharped the microwave door so its no longer useable:rolleyes:
3. last night decided she wanted pizza when she came in from a party and left the freezer door open all night!!!

she's free to a good home - or any home the way i'm feeling at the moment!

so today i have/will

• clean freezer and see if i can save any food
• check on-line banking
• list items on ebay - unfortunatly they don't take livestock;)
• clicks & surveys

hope you all have a good day

Today:
- Store cupboard meals from menu inc giant HM yorkshire pudding.
- checked over food for next week & got to Mr T's before it shut!
- used DS1's extra points coupons so they did not expire like his last lot - put the points on his ad card too
- daily clicks
- shall make OH write his mother's card so I can send it in good time (usually end up forging it and sending it first class as he 'forgets')
- washing on radiators

Did not add to my 'found money' hoard today as had to leave 5p in Mr T's as could see it but not not reach it... I hate that happening !

HI everybody,

Today have been shopping at Tesco's to start collecting points to covert to holiday vouchers next year so we can go on our first family holiday to Cyprus, I can't get over the fact that at that point (all going well) our new baby would be 10months old! (due August).

Also today I have picked up a computer chair via freecycle as dh's chair broke yesterday. :T
