    Hi all. Pleased your pooch is feeling a bit better Jen-sorry about the expense for you. I went ot sainsbury's last night and got a 72 pence litre bottle of candia long life milk-for nothing (I used a voucher printed off the computer) I also got 200g philadelphia extra light for nothing (coupon printed off computer) and 2 packs of jersey royal potatoes (should have been £2.99 per bag )and I paid 45p for both bags :D
    Went to morrisons today for fuel and spent £18, I received a £5 morrisons voucher from my loyalty card points. I'm a happy bunny today. I have just listed a few more bits on ebay and have a bid on one of them already!!!

    cool everyones getting organised! Had another jewellery order earlier, £42 ! It seems to be all or nothing at the mo! Assuming quidco and mbm pay out and including money for mini mags, cheques due for jewellery and from mobilexchange I need an extra £39 each month to be debtfree by end of November. If I'm very tight (even tighter!) I might be able to save that out of monthly spends , of course if I sell some more jewellery it will be easier..... Anyone getting married?? LOL

    Yeah, we're getting married...but that's another challenge...when we can afford it and it won't be yet unfortunately...it's all a bit complicated.
