Hypno's "bursting with energy" diary.......
Comments

- [strike]work[/strike] DONE
- [STRIKE]free b!ngo 6-8pm[/STRIKE] Nothing won (again!)
- [STRIKE]dinner - something with chicken[/STRIKE] roast chicken, new potatoes, sweetcorn and broccoli - yum
- input a mystery shop
- [strike]cancel another one because the staff will recognise me![/strike] DONE
- check on ebay/amazon and try and list a couple more things
- [strike]check throughout the day for new mystery shops[/strike] DONE - picked up another visit for August
- [strike]do online banking and mark off against dreaded "bills still to pay" list![/strike] Shortfall of £425.22 :eek:
I have checked quidco and all my payments are made at the month end, so I expect this one will be too.
August *should* in theory be a little easier then......£270 quidco money, £80 ish mystery shopping money, £294 from the student......
....the only dampner is that OH's "gardening leave" finishes on 15th August, so no money coming in after that.........he has 4 shifts from his "second" job this week and 2 next week, but nothing after that.......*sighs*Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

Can you give him the job of raising that £425.22 while he's lying around doing nothing?
or threaten to remove his toys :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: e-bay here you come (I have 2 more finishing within the hour, and they're going better than yesterdays)0 -
He's not lying around doing nothing - its just he hasn't got a job yet :rolleyes: .......He has been at work today and is working again tomorrow, wednesday and Friday......he has put some stuff on ebay and played enough free b!ngo to drive him barmy, and he has done a couple of boot sales, and took some records to a dealer to sell......so it would be harsh of me to say he is doing nothing.....but I would feel so much better if he had a proper job - time is running out!!!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

Oof, hypno - I can see he's using his time, but... its put you in a bad situation, hasn't it. I do admire the principled stand, tho. I admire you for managing to play the dratted free bingo too - its logged me out by the time the next game comes round, and it takes me so long to log back in the game has started. I obviously don't have the timing quite right... mind you, at the same time I'm inputting two mystery shops, and watching the trading to see if there's a signal (there isn't...
quiet day today after Friday's freakout). Ooohhhh, signal happening... will I trade it???? We'll see.
Hope he gets a proper job soon.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
