    Have a lovely time shopping Amy xxx

    Right, look at the time and im still not asleep, ah well, its Saturday tomorrow = no work!!!!

    Just finished sorting out my bootsale bits, however just looked at the weather and its not looking promising for Sunday, not good.

    I put £40 to one side this month for some new perfume, but i have now decided to use that money to put towards my Littlewoods debt. I will treat myself to some new perfume at the start of September when Quidco hopefully pays out the £150 thats showing for September.

    The £150 i have put aside for some new clothes using my Glamour 20% vouchers is still going ahead, jsut waiting for the first voucher date to start. I believe thats The Body Shop on 1st September, then Dorothy Perkins, Warehouse, Oasis....!!! Will save myself £30 by just using the vouchers. Pretty good offer, what with the recession n all. I'm hoping they keep up with the offers, i will be a happy bunny!!!!

    The weekend is nearly over again for another week, god i really don't to start another working week...hate it!! MUST WIN THE LOTTO!!!!

    Hi Amy,

    I had a lovely day with my sister and niece, its great when they are down. My niece is growing up soo fast.

    I only spent £15 yesterday, £8 spent in Boots using my pinkie vouchers and till receipts. Then had some lunch in Nandos.

    Today i was up at 5.30am as i my OH and I done a bootsale. I made £50 and my OH made £200. I'm not sure £50 was worth getting up at 5.30am for as i was soooo tired but every penny counts lol. Will use themoney to put towards the debt.

    Checked Quidco and my William Hill has been declined, i will raise an enquiry. Other DFW have had theirs declined too so its unfair we miss out because Quidco mess up the amount.

    Hi Lilmiss,

    I'm off to America in November, Vegas, but my OH and I wold like a weekend away in Italy again around September/October time.

    I only have 5 days left, holiday just goes sooo fast. I think i'm just going to use this by having long weekends once a month. That way the holiday won't go as fast.
