    WTM getting return flights for two of us to Dublin for under £15 all in - means I can go with OH on a work trip - hotel paid for and all her costs - so a week's holiday for just the cost of my meals!

    2 waggy tail moments for me today:

    1. I contacted British Gas to cancel my homecare agreement on electrical appliances as decided this was a bit of a rip off (have kept boiler etc cover still), this will save approx £18 per month.

    2. Whilst I was on the phone to BG I mentioned that when I called them out to my oven they had condemned it and said I'd get a refund on what I'd paid to have cover on it and that I hadn't received that. They looked into it, called me back and turns out I'm entitled to a £56 refund which they're sending me a cheque for, yippee :)
    Money doesn't make you happy so I'm skint but cheerful :beer:

    Hi Everyone,

    I have two waggy tails as well today.

    The first one is having taken my pooch for two long walks already today - who needs a gym membership:confused:

    The second is having found an old calculator that I thought was worthless sells for £40+ on eBay :j

    WTM for yesterday, the final payment cleared on CC1 so that is now empty :D
    WTMs for today, sent back something I ordered on my shopping CC. Will be £6 out of pocket, but better than the £40 I would have been if I'd have kept it. Also got something else to package up and get a refund for on Tuesday. And thirdly, I have just put away 75% on my clean laundry ( can't do the rest as OH is asleep in the bedroom)

    Good times :D

    Hi Everyone,

    Well I've got another WTM that I'm really proud of.

    I've just swapped electricity and gas suppliers and moved to a new tariff that is £80/year cheaper than our current one! Even better is that it is capped until October 2009 with no early getout penalty.

    And best of all I'm getting paid £15 for doing it :j :j :j :j .

    Regards

    WTM'S today are car repairs £70 less than budgeted (very very rare) and Double buggy for Sis, Bike for Nephew and Bookcase for Mum from freecycle.

    Well done on Gas/Elec Red Dino sounds like a great deal.

    Well I'm guessing that everyone is too busy having a great weekend to be having waggy tail moments today.

    Anyway, my WTM is the weather clearing up just after the Grand Prix had finished so I could take the dog for a walk on the beach.
