    Hello,

    - Brought lunch to work from home
    - Should be an NSD
    - Called up Next and paid £112 balance off in full before they charge me any interest
    - Paid £35 off a credit card
    - Did 2 Toluna surveys
    - Transfered in £25 made from a quidco offer bet on the horses!
    - Taken steps to get my paypal account validated so I can sell more on eBay
    - Drinking free promotional energy drinks that have been delivered to the office instead of buying coffee etc.

    I did research our council tax band too to see if we could be decreased but to no avail LOL. It was worth a look! Also tried to work out what the new income tax changes would mean for me, but only got as far as working vaguely out that I'll be better off tax-wise a bit, but then lose it again for more national insurance (easy come easy go!) :rotfl:

    More DFW things to do yet today:
    - [strike]check for mystery shopping jobs[/strike]
    - [strike]call up Halifax about my credit card 0% application as I've not heard back in an age[/strike] APPROVED hurrah, wuth a large enough credit limit to transfer all my high interest card balances onto it for 10 months of 0% AND 0% on purchases for 10 months too (handy for work expenses).
    - [strike]hopefully send off expenses cheque from work if my boss gives me it this afternoon! [/strike]
    - hopefully put some books up for sale on one of the book sites tonight. I've got a fierce cold at the moment so by the time I get in from work at the moment I'm pooped!

    Well done everyone so far today! Some great things going on. :T
