Thank you Dawn.

I received the bonus 10,000 points from shopandscan yesterday, so i ordered my first voucher. I ordered a £10 Arcadia voucher, so i can use that in Topshop hopefully. I also received a £10 Amazon voucher today from a comp i entered ages ago, so i have uploaded that to my Amazon account, and will save it for crimbo presents.

3 more sleeps before holiday - yippee!!!!! Just checked the weather in Vegas, and its nice and warm, will make a nice change from the horrible cold weather we are having.

I nearly just spent £35 on Dorothy Perkins website. I received a £5 voucher in the post, and just seen a few cute tops, and a long hooded top, and was very temped. However, off into town tomorrow so will check DP and see what they are like before ordering, if i like, i will come home and order. I'm in need of a few more warm tops, and 2 tops, one work jumper, and one hooded jumper is great for £35.

OH is on late shift tonight, he's having fun with the halloween drunks. He gets off at 2am, may be later depending how busy it gets.

I have stayed in tonight with mummy, and had a nice chat, and a catch up, and now just catching up on here.

Upto £5.35 on onepoll, i know i have a long way to go until payout, but should hopefully have enough in a few months time for payout.

I have got all my spending money together, £800 i will be taking for the 5 days. Any money i bring back will be going on the credit card, that needs to go i have decided. I have also saved £200 so far for Christmas in USA. I need around another £600, which will be saved from November and Decembers pay. Then any money from that will be chucked at debt. I'm hoping to have my debt down to £1,400 by the end of December.

Tomorrow eve i'm staying in too as OH is on lates AGAIN, but received an email earlier to say an online rental dvd has been sent, Made of Honour which i have been waiting for for weeks now, so fingers crossed tha arrives tomorrow, will be my evening entertainment, along with X Factor of course.

Just checked Quidco and they have paid out £25, i was expecting more but again that hasn't gone through. Maybe next month?? :rolleyes:

Up early today, well i'm not up, just yet anyways. Hoping to go into town for around 9.30 before everybody starts coming out. I like to get my shopping done with little people around as possible. I have set aside £100 to spend on the bits i want, hopefully will spend less.

I still have the £100 i put aside for my Ugg boots in the bank, unfortuantely i was too slow for the voucher code, but have checked and somebody has said there may be another around 18th November. Unfortuantely it means waiting for my boots until then, but as i'll be in Vegas next week, i prob won't need them just yet.

God, can anybody believe its November already :eek: shocking!!!!

Will update later with my spends

My shopping didn't go to plan, it was sooo busy i didn't buy myself any new clothes, but instead i went into boots and spent £50, well i actually only spent £40 because i had a £10 voucher from Pigsback. Today was the special points promotion, spend £50 get £10 back in points. I also had a 500 points coupon if a bought something from protect and perfect range, so i bought some hand cream. So in total, spent £40, and got £16.60 back in points. I got my lil niece another christams pressie, and a few bits for myself.

I now have £35 in boots points on my advantage card :j aiming to get it to £50 by the end of November to use for Christmas gifts.

Just watching Made of Honour now, one of my online rental dvds. Tonight is going to be a movie/X Factor night with Dominos pizza
