:rotfl: I am happy and still feeling positive
Although the grocery challange does not start untill May i have gone through cupboards and freezer to make meal plans which can last a good two weeks!!!
As an added bonus of working in a supermarket i get 10% discounts on my goods (usually for the first £10 discount i get at the start of the month i will buy saving stamps towards xmas and i will continue to do this as there practically free! i have £40 saved so far - target £100)
I had a letter from my ex employer saying they owe me £27.65 from over payment of NI so thats a bonus
AND my ebaying till the wee hours of the morning is paying off already, i put i few peices of broken jewellery which i only expected to get £4 for if that, had an 4 offers to BIN and accepted £14 :j
Looking forward to seeing how the other 28 items get on! (Another two suit cases and 1 box full of stuff to go through and family are offering donations too).
Take care all and thank you for continuing to post great tips... its been a blessing xxx
